Seashore Treasures

I love checking the mail. You never know when a children’s magazine will be there waiting for you. This month, I was happy to find my puzzle poem in Highlights High Five. I wrote this poem while walking the white beaches off the Gulf of Mexico on a trip to visit my parents. Alliteration, onomatopoeia, and internal rhyme add to the playfulness of this little beach adventure. Art was done by Viviana Garafoll.
