Ok, this is another one of the poems I wrote in the 5th grade (so age 9 or 10).. I look at my own 8 year old now and wonder how I could have thought so poetically around her age. Perhaps I will test her, see if she is also poetically inclined.

As I Walk Along
The Garden Path
Such Beauty I Did See.
For Love Of Nature
And Love Of God
Had Taken Over Me.
But With Her Beauty
She Will Wait,
And Slowly Fade Away,
Then Burst Awake
For Me To See
With The Light Of A New Day.
