Ethical ELA: Growing Miracles

Today’s Ethical ELA poem is a chance to reflect with gratitude us to spend time practicing gratitude.  This month's host, Mo, encouraged us to try a format called a Kenning which comes from Norse myths or legends. A Kenning uses two-word phrases as metaphors to describe something. 

I drafted a single poem that sums up my half-dozen grands who range from 3 to 10 years old. I am very grateful to be able watch them grow and change. 

Full-body huggers,
Chip munchers,
Marker magicians,
Videogame addicts,
Ice-cream consumers,
Jacket avoiders,
Pup huggers,
Gingerbread aficionados,
Avid swimmers,
Intense ball-handlers,
Unconditional loving
Growing miracles.
