There were some great song lyrics posted yesterday. My students recited and wrote about Langston Hughes poems recently, so I have his writings on my brain. I think that's a good thing! Here's one for you:
Fulfillment, by Langston Hughes
The earth-meaning
Like the sky-meaning
Was fulfilled.
We got up
And went to the river,
Touched silver water,
Laughed and bathed
In the sunshine.
Day
Became a bright ball of light
For us to play with,
Sunset
A yellow curtain,
Night
A velvet screen.
The moon,
Like an old grandmother,
Blessed us with a kiss
And sleep
Took us both in
Laughing.
Enjoy that bright ball of light today! :wave:
