Abuelito who throws coins like rain

and asks who loves him

who is dough and feathers

who is a watch and glass of water

whose hair is made of fur

is too sad to come downstairs today

who tells me in Spanish you are my diamond

who tells me in English you are my sky

whose little eyes are string

can't come out to play

sleeps in his little room all night and day

who used to laugh and like the letter k

is sick

is a doorknob tied to a sour stick

is tired shut the door

doesn't live here anymore

is hiding underneath the bed

who talks to me inside my head

is blankets and spoons and big brown shoes

who snores up and down up and down up and down again

is the rain on the room that falls like coins

asking who loves him

who loves him who?

About Me:

Hello Phoenix Family! My name is Mary Sauls. I received my Associate of Arts degree from Peace College in Raleigh and my Bachelors of Science degree from East Carolina. I am currently working on earning a Masters degree from East Carolina in the area of Library Science. I have taught Language Arts and/or Social Studies in some combination or another for the past twelve years. I enjoy reading, playing tennis, camping, traveling, and playing with my two dogs, Maggie and Whitney. I love learning with my 6th grade students and teaching with my 6th grade team of teachers!
