April is National Poetry Month! All month long we’ll be celebrating by posting some of our favorite poems for Poetry Friday. We’re starting off the weekend with Hamburger Heaven by Lee Bennett Hopkins from Amazing Faces.
HAMBURGER HEAVEN
Lee Bennett Hopkins
He looks. She looks.
“Hi!” “Hi!”
“My name is Cam.” “My name is Kim.”
“Been here before?” “First time.”
“Kim?” “Cam?”
Heart beats. Heart beats.
Love
found
among
burgers,
French fries,
and a
mile of smiles.
-From Amazing Faces, collected by Lee Bennett Hopkins and illustrated by Chris Soentpiet. Now out in paperback!
