Celebrating Spring with Poet-Tree in the LMC!

April is National Poetry Month! Spring is springing all around us, and Lafayette is celebrating the season with a hand-clapping, foot-stomping, rhythm-jamming, rhyme-slamming Parade of Poetry. We are reading poems, writing poems, performing poems, and sharing poetry with family and friends:

Poetry on Parade is all about creative thought, wonderful words, and getting everyone involved in the poetic experience. Take a look at One, Two... written by one of Lafayette's favorite poets, Shel Silverstein, and performed by Mr. Cleary and Kyra:

An Interview with Shel Silverstein, 
featuring Julie Cif and Mike E.

It’s springtime in the LMC!

The air is filled with poetry.

With books in bloom,

a happy scene-ing:

bees are buzzing,

grass is greening. 

As for us,

we’ll spend some time

with words that sing

and lines that rhyme.

It’s springtime in the LMC!

And Look!  

We’ve grown a Poet-Tree!
