My son Bernie (age 7) just found out that his poem “Dance To The Chocolate” won in his age group in the Fair Trade Delmar Chocolate Poetry Contest. He gets a prize, gets to read at the award ceremony, and gets his poem printed in the paper. It’s a good month for poetry in the Crane house. Here’s his winning poem:
Dance To The Chocolate
Dance to the music right?
Wrong! Dance to the chocolate
Dance to the chocolate
Dance to the chooooooocolate
Yay!!!
Best. poem. ever. Bernie rocks.
So proud of him! Not only he is a great poet, but I particularly liked his subject matter. Way to go, B!
Ooh, this was my favorite one in the bunch! Congrats to Bernie!
Thanks, all!
