2 Introduction

“I’m a poet, and I know it, I’ve got my whole life to show it I feel it in the winter, I feel it in the spring, I feel it when I whisper, I feel it when I sing…”

It’s been a joy to work with the students and faculty at PS90 this spring. In this anthology, or “poetry room,” you will find things that delight and surprise you. Unicorns, spring puddles, cats, and flowers, among many other things, are contained inside. You will read poems about spring, Brooklyn, night sounds, mountains, imagined night adventures and the letter O. You will enter a room filled with sensory details, gorgeous imagery, playful language and hard work. During our time together, we read poetry by Langston Hughes, Naomi Shihab Nye, Edward Lear, e.e.cummings, Eve Merriam, Pablo Neruda and Sonia Sanchez, among others. Through literature, we went owling, and on an adventure with the jumblies. We tasted watermelons in a new way. We went to the moon and looked inside of a kaleidoscope. We looked inside of a stone and at daffodils and listened as the rain fell on us. We went to the top of a mountain and discovered, through our imaginations, that a mountain could be as cute as an ice cream cone and as soft as a rabbit’s ears and all sorts of other things! We learned how to look at the world as poets, noticing things that other people might not notice, imagining things that other people might not imagine. PS90 is a school that truly nurtures creativity and learning. Thank you Ms. Sonco, Ms. Parente, Ms. Fox, Ms. Mendoza, Ms. Sigler, and Ms. Wnek for welcoming me into your classrooms. Thank you Principal Hawkins and Assistant Principal Lynch for making this residency possible. Thank you to all of the paras who add such vital support to the classroom. And of course a big, huge, enormous thank you to the Second Graders of PS90 for the beautiful words you shared with me!

Sincerely, Amina Henry

3 Ms. Fox’s & Ms. Mendoza’s Class Brooklyn Brooklyn is the place where people live and where we have freedom Brooklyn looks like a smart shark and a beautiful butterfly She smells like bananas and strawberries Brooklyn has golden and blue eyes She wears a glittery baby blue diamond dress Brooklyn tastes like fast food and sounds like electricity, a rainbow, paint dropping, music, and roller coasters Brooklyn loves people, Dominos pizza, and New York City She loves to sing and dance She feels like solid bricks, but sometimes soft sand When Brooklyn opens her mouth, she says, “This is a wonderful day, Brooklyn is the best”

Roses-beautiful Dog-cute I am red Hide and seek-cool Like an apple It’s spring when it is nice and When I run When it is hot It sounds like Yay Woo Hoo Chirp I am blue Like rocks Ode to the Circle When I jump O, you are a cherry And an apple My Jumbly Poem And an egg A stormy day You are as round as a moon A lovely monkey And as bouncy as a dog The sea and dumplings You are nice Have a feast An owl cries because it gets a feast My Wandering Poem I wandered sad as a dog I saw a tree It was as black as a dime Copper as a penny And silver as a quarter It was not cool So not cool

It was a winter tree

My Mountain Poem I think the mountain is a dog that is green I think the mountain is a fox that is red Maybe the mountain is a toy or a TV Or the mountain is a book with a song in it There is a boy on the mountain Eating candy

87 I Am a Kaleidoscope JahSean Winslow-Debouse I am pink My Night Song Like the moon I hear an owl singing When I cry I hear my brother sing I hear a baby wolf, a mommy wolf and a daddy I am blue wolf howling Like the sky I hear my car talking When I sing Going Inside I am gold Inside pizza Like a banana I see fungi When I sleep I see fishes in the water Inside there are frogs I am red I hear birds Like a tree I taste Oreos When I eat It smells good, like candy I feel like swimming I am black Like grass My Squishy Spring Poem When I hug In spring the world is Sunny and happy and good A Night Adventure Water drips something nice Come with me to the park It’s spring when I hear birds You have to be prepared It sounds like a woof You will need toys We will see trees and grass Ode to the Circle We will hear nothing O, you are a fox running in a circle Maybe tonight? And a head You are a black panther My Jumbly Poem On a stormy day two dumplings saw I Am a Kaleidoscope The sea I am gold Oh no! Like a noodle The sea saw a monkey When I am working The sea ate the monkey The dumpling friends were sad I am red The end Like a crowbar When I am eating

I am silver and beautiful like my mom When I am sad

My Jumbly Poem A hive of silvery bees At the feast It was scary

88 Mikaela Worrell I Am a Kaleidoscope My Weather Poem I am blue Rain sounds like drip drip and drop drop Like the sky I see lightning When I laugh In the rain, I like to touch the rain And sing I am red I feel water in the rain Like blood When I cry My Squishy Spring Poem In spring the world nice Crazy World Rabbits-fun If the world was crazy, I’d eat a basketball Flowers-sunny I’d feel ten feet tall The leaves grow If the world was crazy, I’d wear a hairy dress It’s spring when the world is sunny again It would be such a mess You have lots of help from school teachers If the world was crazy, I’d jump into a classroom It sounds like Aaah! and teach everyone about fun I would say to them, Everyone is done Ode to the Circle O, you are as round as an apple My Jumbly Poem You make me want to eat you Me and my friend are in a dumpling You make me hungry Having a feast You are as round as a Cheerio Sailing in the blue sea And round as a coconut A little girl is sitting in the sand You are sooo nice, circle On a rock She swims in the crystal blue sea My Wandering Poem Waving bye I wandered calm as a classroom She was a mermaid I saw my friend She was as nice as a family My Morning Poem And as funny as a teacher Some mornings I scream She was nice and happy and dancing I also throw a fit She had one long braid I can smell sadness Pretty! It feels sharp like a shark I am as angry as a bear My Mountain Poem But then I am happy like a panda I think the mountain is a light I am hungry like a zombie A joyful sister or brother I think the mountain is a baby crying for its mom Maybe the mountain is an eagle looking for a home Or the mountain is happy finding a friend On the mountain is a place where dreams come true
