Jeff read/performed several of his poems.
Then Jeff challenged the group to write their own poems. The poems were to be about a sound. First, we made a list of sounds, then Jeff had us all close our eyes and think of a sound. Then he told us to imagine what it would be like to go inside the sound. Consider how it would smell, feel, what color the sound would be. When eyes were opened, the writing began.
A big thank you to Amy Kulper and Christine Hume for arranging for Jeff Kass's visit, and to Jeff Kass for working us into his already busy day.
Here are a few poems:
Explosion
Red,
yellow,
BOOM,
BOOM
And
By Bora
Laugh
Colorful,
joyful
Laughing,
running, jumping
Laughter
spreading everywhere
Nice
By Iris
Explosion
In a
Explosion
I
smell
Smoke
I
see
Fire,
I
Hear
a
Boom
By Eli
Inside
of roar,
There
is a lion a nice one.
I
hear a growl.
It
is fun.
I
see blue.
I
smell honey.
I
taste cookies.
I
feel something furry.
I
like it in roar
But
it is time to go.
bye!
See
you next time,
Lion!
