PO-EMotion -- Shame





CAUGHT THROWING A PAPER WAD ACROSS THE CLASSROOM

I'm sorry
I regret it
I know that it was wrong.

(But still
I can't believe that
I made a shot that long!)

  1. Fun!
    As someone too timid to do that in school, I luv this!

  2. Very nice! I liked the parentheses. I can imagine that being said out of the corner of one's mouth.

    (I have several boys and one girl in my classroom who could make this poem their own!) :)

  3. Oh, this is so true! And it is totally my son.
    Our Henry lived this one this week - kind of. We went to urgent care after he fell down a ravine playing capture the flag. His team did win, though, as he kept the flag running...
