Kim Stone Poet Rhyme

Alone

   Sally stood alone,
   In a corner of the room.
   No one said "Hi",
   Or asked her to stop by.
   Sally started the fourth grade today,
   No one looked friendly,
   Or even looked her way.

Kim Stone September 22, 2024 at 6:52 AM I have found that helping children be a part of something with peers works to move them forward toward friends. Thank you so much for acknowledging my writing and recognizing the children who are on the margins.
