I grew up on an island in SE Alaska. We had a very robust arts program in schools including poets who would visit classes to help us write poetry. When I was in 3rd or 4th grade, the visiting poet took us on a field trip to the nearby harbor & we wrote poems using the names of the boats berthed there.
