      Sometimes your house can turn into water
      and sometimes floating cupcakes
      and cakes. When you wake up in the morning you see it
      and eat it
      and garden a seed that will turn into a beautiful flower woman
      and a flower girl
      and you will live with them forever. They will help themselves
      to everything so don’t worry.
      You have a princess in your house the next morning
      and the next morning
      and the next morning
      and when your music box turns overnight
      it will be a magical ballerina.
      If you put a little dust on something
      it will turn overnight to something real.
      The balloon will turn to flower, mouse, anything.
      You will not even know what it will turn into. It is a surprise
      in the morning. Your feet will tangle to a beautiful rose.
      When you have your garden your vegetables
      will turn into a beautiful carriage.
      You will have 100 of them.
      You can make a ribbon in your soil. A little dust on it
      will turn it into a beautiful, beautiful ribbon
      that floats in the air. Wherever you go
      it will go.

      Why do you like to write poetry?

      “I figure out stuff when I’m writing. Sometimes when I’m reading poetry, I discover new animals, new people, even new kinds of birds like the blue jay. You can discover your imagination!”
