Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

We got Guyku: Haiku for Boys out of the library and my 7yo ds loved it. He is not big on poetry, but this was a great way to introduce the Haiku form to a boy this age.

I even caught the 13yo (ds) reading it once or twice.

Great! Got to check that one out. I'm going to link this to our ongoing picture book poetry books thread, too.

Just a note to say - we got it and it was a hit with ds. The author really knows "guy poetry"
