We’re working on so many poetic skills these days! We’re always looking at poetic line and stanza, of course, and we’re now thinking about personification. This week we read the phenomenal poem “The Delight Song of Tsoai-Talee” by N Scott Momaday, and wrote our own delight songs. Enjoy!

The Delight Song of Diego
Diego H.
Yo soy un pulpo que nada en el arrecife
Yo soy un pájaro que vuela en el aire.
Yo soy la luz del cielo azul
Yo soy la hoja que se cae de árbol
Yo soy el tigre que nunca come.
Yo soy la ballena que juega alrededor del oseano atlantico
Yo soy un aguila que explora el bosque.
You see, I am alive, I am alive
translation

I am an octopus that swims in the reef
I am a bird that flies in the air.

I am an eagle that explores the forest.

I am a snow storm sleeping

I am a sly fox
I am a star in a forest
I am the sun staring at the grass
I am a leaf holding the wind
I am a flower singing to the sun

I am the trees saying “hello” to the sun
I am wind playing with the grass
You see I am alive in you
