Flu.
Boo.


It's Poetry Friday yet again here in the blogosphere, so head on over to Laura Purdie Salas's Writing the World for Kids and check out this week's roundup of poetry goodies.

(P.S. Honestly, Mom, that's not really what happened to me, I'm grateful to say. It's just a poem!)

Ha! Love this, Greg. Glad it's not true, though:>)

I love the explanation to your mom! Poem, too, of course.

Such a great poem that deflates the windy title nicely.

Mary Lee said...

Hello, Greg--

My class and I are reading some poems and we have different opinions on your two word poem.

10 people like this very short poem.
4 people think that "Flu. Boo." does not make sense and is too short. They would like more sdjectives to describe the flu and the boo."

Please write back if you have a chance.
