To celebrate today, Band-Aid Day, I wrote this poem which appears in the The Poetry Friday Anthology for Celebrations. This book is a year long celebration of poetry - perfect for teachers, librarians, parents, and most especially CHILDREN!

Nothing like a mom's hug and a Band-aid.
ReplyDeleteYou got that right, Sheila! If only it worked for older kids, too. =)
DeleteBeautiful, Bridget. They work every time.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda! Mom + Band-Aids = cure for everything. =)
DeleteSweet ending, Bridget! Just right :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tabatha!
DeleteWouldn't it be super fun to take a bunch of small Band-Aids and write a word from the poem on each one? 20 Band-Aids, if I counted correctly . . . put the biggest one of them on the wound and arrange the other ones around it to form the poem!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, Janet! Double the cure: Band-Aids and poetry! =)
