STUDENT POET OF THE DAY: KYLIE COX

(Cloud watching from an airplane window)

Kylie Cox, a 3rd grader at Blue Ridge School in Cashiers, NC, obviously likes watching clouds, as do I. I confess that I've never seen a cloud monkey, but that's likely because my imagination isn't as lively as Kylie's!

CLOUD MONKEY

High in the sky

so high, so high

I see a monkey

skate boarding in the sky.

I see the monkey

flipping, tripping,

turning, and limping

as the clouds pass

by.
