I helped my grandson write this haiku but HE was the brains! What a great juxtaposition he came up with for being only 8 years old! Very creative. He wants me to post :)

I was expecting to read that the sub was burnt at the stake or some such---so this was a delightful surprise! So happy to read it! :)

I love it when the poetry comes straight out of a child's heart.

That's one smart kid right there. Tell him I said this was really good and I remember what it was like having a substitute teacher...he is poetically telling it like it is. :)
