Sans Souci WayPosted April 14th, 2007 by Jen in poetryWith April being National Poetry Month, I’ll continue to highlight some poetic pieces, mostly drawing from the expansive creativity of my own family. My cousin, Dick Smith, wrote this beautiful piece I’m featuring here. I was missing Michigan today, so this work is perfect. I’ll begin with Dick’s introduction: Introduction to Sans Souci Way

My 3 children wrote these poems for their Aunt Jenny:
LIMERICK
There once was a girl from Peru,
Who one day did catch the flu.
She sniffled and sneezed
But seemed quite pleased
For she said, “I like it–achoo!”
-Danika
POEM
Pizza
Yummy, chewy
Chewing, eating, filling
Bread, sauce, pepperoni, sausage
Slurping, munching, playing
Warm, cold
Food
-Thomas
LEAVES
Feel soft in the spring
Look bright green and new
Smell sharp and fresh
Sound crunchy in the fall
Look colorful and rich
Smell smoky while they’re burning
Feel dry and rough
-Jakub
AND all 3 of them love this poem (they have been repeating it to me over and over)
There once was an old man from Esser,
Whose knowledge grew lesser and lesser.
It at last grew so small,
He knew nothing at all,
And now he’s a college professor!
