April is National Poetry Month! All month long we’ll be celebrating by posting some of our favorite poems for Poetry Friday. For our final Poetry Friday post, we chose a poem from Dreaming Up: A Celebration of Building, written and illustrated by Christy Hale.

block by block,

plastic shapes

Yellow, red,

all connect

in a stack.

Habitat 67 in Montréal

 

Build a world

brick by brick.

Hold them close.
