Jackson's Haiku

Baseball Boy
By: Jackson and Crystal Hays
 
Jackson Warren Hays
was born in February
two thousand seven
 
He was tall and smart
and loved the Texas Rangers
from the very start
 
Time he was four
he had his own ball and glove
like those he adored
 
Now five years later
he can throw his own pitches--
even a fader!
 
 
 
Never have I seen Jackson remotely interested in writing poetry. But when his teacher offered a "Get out of homework for all next week" pass for all students who entered the contest, he was all about it!We wrote this Haiku together and it was actually kind of fun.  Now I'm interested to see how we do in the poetry competition!
