Sometimes I read things that my son has written and I'm blown away. I wasn't that good when I was his age. He's a gifted writer and I'm so lucky to get to watch him grow and improve.
I'd say this even if he wasn't my child. Really.
This was an assignment from school, a color poem. The descriptions were so vivid, and of course the illustration was perfect.
Red is like lava,
fire
rage
a bad feeling.
Red tastes like hot candies
and sounds like roaring wind.
Red looks like sulfuric ashes.
It feels like hot embers.
Red makes me angry.
Red is evil.
