Waxwing Quatrain
Perching high up in a tall oak tree
Taking to air with newfound glee
Eggshells cracking nearby
A joyful flutter, an unheard cry

Perching high up in a tall oak tree
Taking to air with newfound glee

This is really good. I love the images it brings to my mind about a beautiful, wistful WaxWing bird. There is another teacher who uses Kidblog with his students who created a tutorial on how to find images using Google. He also shows how to find the ones that you are allowed to use with permission. I think you would enjoy learning this very advanced skill. Check it out. Perhaps after watching his video, you can find a picture of a WaxWing that you can use in your post.
I look forward to future poems and posts and especially those where you incorporate your new skills. http://www.screencast.com/users/Jazzymiles/folders/Jing/media/ef0eb5d7-1fdb-4732-b2f3-b02159de80fb
I think a picture of the WaxWing would be a neat idea too. I have never heard of this bird so it would be cool to see what one looked like when reading this. Thanks for teaching me something and sharing this.
great figurative lanuage
Can’t wait to see your next poem

The picture makes it perfect. What a beautiful bird. Thanks for sharing it.
