A few days ago, Mrs. McLendon asked Stockton to write a poem for a contest. She needed the poem a few days later. Stockton could choose to write from one of the following themes: "My Wish for the World...", "What My Family Means to Me..." or "The World as I See It..." Stockton chose the last one. This is his poem:
Something's Different
My shirt is white!
The sky is maroon!
But gray is still
the color of the moon!
The grass is purple!
It's stuck in my sight!
Zebras are black
and now are striped white!
The sun is blue!
What I'm trying to say -
Inverted colors
are what I see today
--Stockton
