Poetry Tuesday


Written sometime in the fall by Sportsboy as part of a writing assignment. They were given the first two words of each line as prompts.

I Am…

I am a smart guy who loves sports

I wonder if I will make the hall of fame

I hear the grass scream when stepped on by cleats

I see myself rising the ranks towards the hall of fame

I want to be an all-pro running back

I am a smart guy who loves sports


I pretend to fly through the atmosphere

I feel the sky rub my skin

I touch the air above me

I worry about pollution

I cry when people pass away

I am a smart guy loves sports

I understand we are capable of many things

I say we can build a house on the moon

I dream of winning the Nobel Peace Prize

I try my best at everything

I hope to help the earth

I am a smart guy who loves sports

  1. My son did this same prompted poem in 2nd grade. It would be interesting to see him do it again in 6th grade. I liked the depth and variety of his answers. My favorite is the grass screaming!
