I spied my Shadow Slinking

I was looking through a scholastic poem book that Dawson brought home from school and found this. With the addition of two words(in caps) I think this poem will work for him. I am going to print it up and frame it. And when in cycle, repeat it to him. Maybe it will help him to remember that it's only one battle at a time. He can and will still win the "war" against the beast.
I spied my shadow slinking
up behind me in the night,
I issued it a challenge,
and we started in to fight.
I wrestled with that shadow,
but it wasn't any fun,
I tried my very hardest-
all the same, my shadow
HAD NOT won.

That's very cool, Margo. Maybe you can have Dawson illustrate it? Then you could have the whole thing framed.

I'm going to go out on a limb here, but i tink it would be a great avenue to get published in our student newspaper.
Please PM me if you would like further information.
