Spring: When a Young Man’s Thoughts Turn to Flights of Poetry…
Last night was “Art Show and Portfolio Night” at Schecky’s school.

It’s a chance for the kids to show off the art projects they’ve been working on all year, as well as an opportunity for the parents to see how the kids’ academic work has progressed since the beginning of the year.

Scheck’s teacher had each child write a “Spring Time Poem” for the event.

There were many, many, many shiny happy poems about bunnies, and flowers, and sunshine.

And then there was Schecky’s*…

Seriously, this is the best poem I’ve read all year.
