Pizza Poetry Day at Green

Students at Green Charter were proud to participate in this year's Pizza Poetry Day sponsored by Big Class in celebration of National Poetry Month. The day featured writing, poetry reading, and pizza. Last Friday, April 17th, student's poems were printed onto pizza boxes, which were delivered throughout the city. We are delighted to share a selection of those poems with you here:
School is fun
school is cool
my mom thinks
school rules
When school
is over
it makes
me cry
then
my mother
sings
me
a
lullaby.
– My’kael
I live in New Orleans
flying high, singing
songs you might
see me flying
by, sometimes
it will be in
the fall,
nothing
will ever
make me
fall.
– Hiyanta

I love pizza
it’s so cheesy
and crispy I love meat love
pepperoni and others too
so I love all types
and that’s me.
– Damiri

Sadness is the soul of the moon
Stars that walk like people
and keep on going
And people never see
the beauty of me
That a thing can keep sealed
I used to have a dream,
only one about the real me.
– Nala

Humpty Dumpty fell on the
hill he couldn’t get
up and never got
his wish of
pizza so
you might
want to
get pizza
he wanted
it.
– Tyriell
