I chose a poem that reminded me of Jude, "Give Me the Wild Children" by Nicolette Sowder. I read it to as many people as I could today. I also invited people to read their favorite poems to Jude.
Give Me the Wild Children
give me the wild children
with their bare feet
and sparkling eyes.
the restless,
churning climbers.
the wild ones using their outside voices,
singing all the way home.
give me the wonder-filled, glorious mess-makers
dreaming of mountains and mud,
aching to run through a field of stars.
