An Ode

Radio Announcer: Thank you for tuning in today. We are here in raleigh to celebrate National Poetry Month. In just a moment, the nation's poet laureate, ms fred, will read a poem about a(n) salamander. And here is ms fred.

ms fred: Thank you, everyone. This is a very rocky poem I wrote about a(n) salamander.

An Ode to a(n) salamander

The salamander is as big as a(n) mountain.
It reminds me of small mid-ocean ridges spreading.
O, the salamander. O, the salamander!
What do lava-y people think when they see you for the first time?
Perhaps they know there are happy days ahead.
O, the salamander. O, the salamander!
For some, you are hot, but for others, you are muddy.
If we are creating, we pause when we think of you.
May you always erode.
O, the salamander. O, the salamander!
The end.

Radio Announcer: On behalf of the poets, thank you for weathering.

You all rock! Tomorrow is Fly Lab Day 2! Get excited!
