Hi, My name is Luke, and the poem I will be reading for you today is called "Laying Outside." This poem is based on Georgia Heard's "Where Poetry Hides" poem.

Laying Outside By Luke Laying outside on the ground Hearing the birds singing songs Observing my dogs bouncing around All of my senses are alert and alive A smile pops onto my face Noticing my thoughts and worries slip away Feeling connected to nature Staying present in the moment POETRY &nbsp;flows into my heart and then into my hand I trot inside and snatch up the pencil&nbsp; My poem blooms, blooms, blooms!
