Actually I have two. They are The Land Of Counterpane by Robert Louis Stevenson and Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would not take the Garbage Out by Shel Silverstien. I have always loved these two poems because they were both in "imaginary" worlds. Well sort of. I just felt like when I read them I was whisked away to this place where the little girl was playing as she lay in bed, or where there was a ton of trash because this little girl would not take the trash out. I have always enjoyed immersing myself in different poems that make me feel like I am someone else.
I can use this in my classroom and just teach the students that it is ok to like different poems and to teach through the poems.
