(in response to Prompt #4)
I found a whale
made of stone,
sitting by the creek
all alone.
How it got there
I don’t know;
stuck on shore,
nowhere to go.
Teacher’s note: Whale Rock is one of many rock formations at Wilson’s Promontory National Park.

Hard Times by Melanie Hill

I’m a rock.
Just a rock.
A sedentary rock.
I was warm until
blasting wind
left me with no cover.
I’m a rock.
I was dry until
eroding rivers
submerged my craggy face.
Just a rock.
I had friends until
they crumbled
and relocated to the beach.
A sedentary rock.
