Thoreau would be proud. According to the News 14 Carolina story,

The peach tree at Wiley International Studies Magnet Elementary School near downtown Raleigh is already starting to sprout fruit. It’s second grade student Ben Watson’s favorite part of the school’s natural learning garden.

“I love to sit under the peach tree and just write poems and draw pictures about it,” he said.

Anyway, it turns out that Ben Watson is quite talented. Here is one of his poems:

A mouthful of language to swallow:
stretches of beach, sweet clinches,
breaches in walls, bleached branches;
britches hauled over haunches;
hunches leeches, wrenched teachers.

What English can do: ransack
the warmth that chuckles beneath
fuzzed surfaces, smooth velvet
richness, splashy juices.
I beseech you, peach,
clench me into the sweetness
of your reaches.

Ok, that was actually “Peaches” by Peter Davison. I am sure Ben is talented, though.
