Happy Poet-Tree Month!

POET’S TREE
Poem and Drawing by Shel Silverstein
Underneath the poet tree,
Come and rest awhile with me,
And watch the way the word-web weaves
Between the shady story leaves.
The branches of the poet tree
Reach from the mountains to the sea.
So come and dream, or come and climb —
Just don’t get hit by falling rhymes. 


In celebration of Poetry Month, the library has created a very sad and empty "Poet-tree." Luckily, students from all grades wrote poems on paper leaves and added it to our tree which is now happily lush with rhymes and verse! Please feel free to come to the library and add a poem leaf of your very own!
