Tommy's Poem

Tommy wrote this poem when he was in second grade. His poem was professionally judged in a contest, and he represented the second graders of Central High Elementary at the district awards ceremony. His poem was published in a book- which I failed to get a copy of that day!


Beans and Grits
by Tommy (1999)

The Chisolm Trail
was very long.
The people who built it
were very strong.

Dirt flies in the air
and gets in the
Cowboys eyes
and mouths.

Beans and Grits
are
Good for You.
