To finish off our week of poetry, here’s one last one…

Today

By Billy Collins

If ever there were a spring day so perfect,

so uplifted by a warm intermittent breeze

that it made you want to throw

open all the windows in the house

and unlatch the door to the canary's cage,

indeed, rip the little door from its jamb,

a day when the cool brick paths

and the garden bursting with peonies

seemed so etched in sunlight

that you felt like taking

a hammer to the glass paperweight

on the living room end table,

releasing the inhabitants

from their snow-covered cottage

so they could walk out,

holding hands and squinting

into this larger dome of blue and white,

well, today is just that kind of day.

Here is a poem to start off your day of poetry! 

“300 Goats” By Naomi Shihab Nye

In icy fields.

Is water flowing in the tank?

Will they huddle together, warm bodies pressing?

(Is it the year of the goat or the sheep?

Scholars debating Chinese zodiac,

follower or leader.)

O lead them to a warm corner,

little ones toward bulkier bodies.

Lead them to the brush, which cuts the icy wind.

Another frigid night swooping down — 

Aren’t you worried about them? I ask my friend,

who lives by herself on the ranch of goats,

far from here near the town of Ozona.

She shrugs, “Not really,

they know what to do. They’re goats.”

 

That was a good one! We hope you all enjoy sharing your poems today!

“Hope” is the thing with feathers

By Emily Dickinson

“Hope” is the thing with feathers -

That perches in the soul -

And sings the tune without the words -

And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -

And sore must be the storm -

That could abash the little Bird

That kept so many warm -

I’ve heard it in the chillest land -

And on the strangest Sea -

Yet - never - in Extremity,

It asked a crumb - of me.

Your poem can be about anything! Here’s one about the universe and a spider! 

A Noiseless Patient Spider By Walt Whitman

A noiseless patient spider,

I mark’d where on a little promontory it stood isolated,

Mark’d how to explore the vacant vast surrounding,

It launch’d forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself,

Ever unreeling them, ever tirelessly speeding them.

And you O my soul where you stand,

Surrounded, detached, in measureless oceans of space,

Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing, seeking the spheres to connect them,

Till the bridge you will need be form’d, till the ductile anchor hold,

Till the gossamer thread you fling catch somewhere, O my soul.

Congratulations to the Varsity Softball team as they had an incredible weekend. On Friday, the Eagles traveled to Mayfield to open league play. The Eagles jumped on the Panthers quickly as they pushed across six runs in the top of the first, and then put it away for good in the third as they scored 8 more to cruise to a 16-0 victory and move to 1-0 in the league.  Emma Menge picked up the win in the circle. Kiera Allen blasted a two-run home run and added a single with 3 RBIs.  Courtney Smith, Samantha Becker, and Sadie Stead each had two hits to pace the Eagles.

On Saturday, the Eagles traveled to the Ballston Spa Grand Slam event, where they faced undefeated and State-ranked Wellsville from Section 5 and undefeated South Glens Falls. The Eagles faced Wellsville first and jumped out to a 2-0 lead, but Wellsville answered right back to tie it at 2-2.  The Eagles came right back in the bottom of the third, scoring three to take a 5-2 lead, but Wellsville had an answer as they scored 4 in the top of the 4th to take a 6-5 lead.  The Eagles pulled even as they stole a run in the bottom of the 5th to tie it at 6-6 as Kiera Allen singled, stole second, then stole third and scored on an overthrow.  The game stayed that way as both teams battled into extra innings.  The Eagles finally broke through in the bottom of the 9th.  With two outs, Courtney Smith on second and Kiera Allen on first, Samantha Becker hit a short fly ball to centerfield that fell out of the centerfielder's glove, trying to make a racing catch, which allowed Courtney Smith to race home for the walk-off win for the Eagles.  Avery Menge started and went 3 2/3 innings, striking out 7. Emma Menge came in in relief and went 5 1/3 innings, picking up the win while striking out 8. Kiera Allen had two hits, two RBIs, and three runs scored.  Courtney Smith picked up two walks and two runs for the Eagles. 

After the marathon game with Wellsville, the Eagles got a ten-minute break before they immediately had to turn around and play a fresh and fully rested, undefeated South Glens Falls team. The Eagles fell behind again as they trailed 3-0 heading into the bottom of the third, but the Eagles battled back as they pushed two across in the third on a two-run triple by Kiera Allen.  The Eagles struck again in the bottom of the fourth as they pushed across 3 to take a 5-3 lead.  In the sixth, the Eagles tacked on 3 more runs, including an RBI triple from Samantha Becker. The Eagles finished it off in the seventh to preserve the 8-5 victory.  Avery Menge started and picked up the win in the circle, going 4 innings, and striking out 6.  Emma Menge picked up the save as she pitched the final 3 innings.  Kiera Allen had a triple with 3 RBIs, and Courtney Smith also had a triple with 1 RBI and 1 walk.  Emma Menge added 2 singles and 2 RBIs.  Samantha Becker had a triple, a single with 1 RBI, and a stolen base. Lily Bain added 2 singles for the Eagles.  The Eagles move to 5-2 on the season with their only losses coming to Niskayuna and Burnt Hills. They travel to Duanesburg today at 4:30. Go Eagles! 

The modified softball team opened up their season on Friday with a head to head battle against the Northville Falcons, which ended in a 16-16 tie. Emma DiPasquale led the team with 2 hits and 5 RBIs, including a 3-run home run in the 2nd inning. Cara Cornell had 2 hits and 2 RBIs, and CC Verret had 1 hit and 5 RBIs. Bella Huff chipped in a base hit and 1 RBI to round out the offensive strike. Hailey Hutchens, Lily Chevalier, and Jillian Bickford all split time on the mound, combining for 10 strikeouts and only 4 hits. Great job Eagles!
