Toy Pensee Poems: A Slice of Life

Sunday, March 29, 2015

Writing teachers need to write themselves.
I am participating in the Slice of Life 2015 Challenge, 
where I attempt to write stories and narratives about moments in my life.
I apologize if this blog post veers off the informative "literacy lens" I usually write through.
This month I am pretending to be a writer, for my students' benefit (and my own).
Writers write.

I was inspired by a fellow slicer and the random toy scenes I discovered around my home this morning.
*This slice was inspired by this post from a fellow slicer:

Minecraft
LEGO brick made
Crafting things without a mind
Empty on the kitchen table
Where are those LEGO heads?


Parked toy
White hotel bus
Waiting for some travelers 
Playmobil van, LEGO driven
Who needs a new windshield?

A line
From big to small
Carnivores walking slowly
Long journey to the bathroom sink
Ferocious and playful


Nap time
Night for the knight
Laying on a blue lawn chair
In a castle tower bedroom
What will he dream about?

















Traffic
Cars all jammed up
Rear ending an alien
Creeper behind the wheel on top
Hope there isn't a fire!


Pirates
All laying down
With a big green dinosaur?
Neverland is full of magic
Even dinos are friends.
    
It isn't a mess if memories are made in the process.  :)
