ARTSPARKS 2018
where kids give voice to the work of Iowa artists
Black and red rain, black and red rain.
You might run into David Bowie
in a fishes garden,
in the shade.
We would be warm,
below the storm,
In Stephen Pastis’s garden in Texas.
Then I at bananas!
Ben, age 10
Zombie Marshmallow Land
Marshmallows are attacking us! Run to the red spots! Oh, no! Those are burning pits of lava! Slide down the black drips and take a left turn. I’ll meet you at the bottom. If we make it out alive.
Peter, age 9
