- Hi, I'm Christina. - Hi, I'm Peg. - I'm Chris. - Join us for a few moments as we look at the world through creative eyes. (soft upbeat music) Well, thank you so much for

joining me today, Peggy and Chris, it's great to have you. - Good to be here. - Pleasure to be here. - I have with me these poetry prompts, and I wondered if you might like to sit

together and write a poem? - Hmm, okay. - Well, I'll read off the phrases and the prompts, and then you guys can answer them, and by the end we'll have a poem. "When the stars

twinkle in the sky, I wonder." - If I could fly, how far I could go. - "If I could fly how far I'd go." "The stars make me want." - To reach up and touch them.

- "To reach up and touch them." "When I see them, I wish." - Others could see them as I do. - And Peggy, what do you wish? - I wish that I could stare at them forever. -

"Stare at them forever." Beautiful. So now your poem reads, "When the stars twinkle in the sky, I wonder if I could fly how far I'd go. The stars make me want to reach

up and touch them. When I see them, I wish I could stare at them forever, and that others could see them as I do." - Okay. - I like it. - Yean. - We should do this more often. - Thank

you so much for joining me and for writing such a beautiful poem together. - A lot of fun, thank you. - You're very welcome. - How about you? Would you like to write a poem with me?
