Homework with a tenth grader
Editing a research paper
Learning more about a topic
A rough draft
Examining the thesis
Gently encouraging
Correcting misspelled words
Taking out yous
Replacing overused words
Checking for plagiarism
Quoting the sources
Citing information correctly
Reading again and again
A final copy
Acceptable
I am a rough draft
Everyday I need editing
Full of errors
Gently encourage me
I fumble my words
Misstep
I need correcting
What is my theme
Take out I's
Replace my wants
Replace my wants
Examine the source
Read me again and again
Perfect in me
A final copy
Acceptable
Pure
