Our Sacred Spots

Ms. Reece is a second-grade teacher  at Pine Forest Charter School. Her entire class submitted drawings of “Sacred Places.” This is Ms. Reece’s own poem.

Bouncing on lovely, strong branches,
I view the beautiful, peaceful sky above.

I smell the gorgeous flowers surrounding me.

In the subway of trees, I feel happy, protected,
and invisible.

On windy days, I feel perfectly safe, as though
I have wings and I can fly.

Relaxing in green bushes, I feel free and in
harmony with the earth.

I feel comfortable in my sacred spot, like I do
with my friends.

My sacred spot is wonderful.

I feel loved.
