Poetic Confession for 4th Graders

I was invited to address the Grade 4 kids in my school, about creative writing and  I sadly forgot about it ,as I was busy with Examination.I penned down this poem for them as a compensation! Needless to say, we loved interacting with each other during the 45 minute session,sharing two of my poems for creative writing here...



Creative Writing

       

                                                                                              
Dear students, thank you for your kind invitation,
And sorry for having missed your creative session,
                                         Due to few other commitments and time limitation,
So here I am to make this very poetic confession!

It’s nice to know that you all worked hard as a team,
To put up the book exhibition which was your dream.
At such a young age you have been able to achieve,
This great milestone, that makes you proudly beam.

Now you need to continue with your love for writing,
Whether it is prose, poetry or any thing interesting.
I am sure you found the whole experience inspiring,
And full of opportunities for several kinds of learning.

Be sure to keep enhancing your vocabulary regularly,
And for that you have to keep reading very religiously.
Writing is a creative art, it has to be developed slowly,
So keep on working upon your language continuously.

This first attempt in creating a book of your very own,
Can be nurtured to make you an author widely known.
Please maintain the enthusiasm that you have shown,
And create in the world of writing, your own special zone.
                                                                                 
   


Thank you all, for giving me this wonderful opportunity,
To come and speak to PYP-4 about  “writing & creativity”.
Creativity of translating thoughts into poems and rhymes,
Sharing experiences  with others, of the good and bad times,
Creative writing is indeed a special and wonderful tool,
That can be very well developed and enhanced in school,
So start using this interesting and beautiful technique,
And create poems that are simply "aesthetic and unique”.

With  Love,
Shubha Ma'am
