Raindrops
Raindrops jingling in the sky like dangling bells in every place bringing water to our homes. Raindrops give water to everybody in the world to you and me, to animals that live and need water. by Jason The Flag
Color red, white, and blue, stripes Stars glowing in the night sky and SHINE! Like a bursting star. Have you ever seen the First flag? And right now's flag Because they are both Beautiful IN their own special ways! Flags! by Anna Football
Football, Football Roar of a crowd like a Kid screaming Pads like a hard cover Book. Players running as fast As lightning. Strong as an elephant Players jerses all different Colors like a crayon box. by Matthew W. Snowflakes
Snowflakes like Shining armor crashing In the night. They're as bright As a diamond Like see through glass. They're as perfect as a Shooting star and They faint Away as a Tiger in the Night. Like a perfect Bursting Star. by Gisele The Bed
When I lay down It's like I am on top Of a cloud, a cloud Where no one Can hurt me. A place to put The stuff that Are like gold To me. Where no one Can harm them. A place where I go when I don't feel well. And it is Like stepping Into a hot Bath. by Brett |
Basketball
Squeak, squeak, squeak Goes the shoes On the court. Bomp, bomp, bomp Goes the basketball Up and down. And he shoots. The ball wriggles in like a worm. The brown grippy ball goes in. The fans explode with cheers and raise their signs. By Owen Turtles
Turtles As slow as Snails But fast in water. Turtles As camouflage as a Cameleon Turtles Are as Rough As the Waves In the Sea. Turtles Shells as Bumpy As a hill. by Josh Basketball
Basketball Dribbling down the Court. Feeling the Wind hugging up against Your face. Getting blocked Feels good when the Ball vibrates Shooting Shoot a 3 and score. by Dominik Apples and Oranges
Oranges Are as soft as a pillow. But apples Are hard and crunchy. An orange Has Rough White Seeds. But apples have Smooth Black Seeds. An orange is the color Orange But apples Are the colors Green and red. They are both fruits. by Daniel |
Rain
Dripping, Thunder crashing, Raining. Making little pool Puddles to splash in. Making lullabyes to fall asleep to. When it doesn't rain There's no lullabyes to fall asleep to, No pool puddles to splash in. When it rains it's like no other day. To say good-bye The rain gives A present. A rainbow! by Elly Acorns
An acorn Glides down Like a plane Being dropped, An acorn lands With a crack Against the ground, An acorn Has a shell Like a crab. An acorn herds In a pile Like an animal's herd, An acorn is A beautiful Amber brown, An acorn Is like a Baby tree Trying to sprout. by Madeline River
Looking upon The river's wavy Lines Moved by the Wind Flowing down the Stream. by Gavin Apples
Munch, munch, munch Yum, yum, lovely apples For lunch! Crunch, crunch, crunch Yellow, green, red, yellow, green, red Bite, bite, bite, bite Munch, munch, munch, Yum, yum, yum. by Grace Sea
Seaweed flowing Fish swimming in the water Oh, so uietly and ver beautiful Like music. Sea Waves perlapping in the sand Very peacefully Beats on the sea Like a heart Beatin Relaxing waves just for me. Sea Patterns on the sand And in the sand Seashells wiggling in The sand With their amazing Patterns. Sea Sea is a place for me Just right place for me For you too, for everyone. Sea! by Anna |
Lion
Lion, lion As soft as a Feather, As perfect as Gleaming diamonds, As bright As a gold And crashing planet. And tigers bursting Out of sight In the night Of the Might In the Night by Gisele Rain in the Sky
Rain in the sky, Sprinkeling everywhere, Drizzling on you. It is going here and there, Rain in the sky. Playing some music, Music dripping everywhere. Rain in the sky, Crying with joy, Teardrops landing on your face. Rain in the sky, Reflecting rain drops, There's rain landing everywhere! by Aiden Thunder Then Lightning
Boom! Crackle! Thunder then lightning All through the night In a loud strange sound. Making rain fall Forcing strong winds After thunder and lightning. Boom! Crackle! All through the nght Making lots of sounds Just thunder and lightning. Thunder Then lightning Next rain Then wind Just thunder then lightning. Boom! Crackle! Thunder then lightning All through the night. Just thunder then lightning. by Evan The Sea
Laying in the golden sand While the sea Like a shark Rolls upu to you Biting at your toes. The gentle rolling sea Like the sky On the muddy ground Swirling around Cloudy turquoise Out at sea Dolphins like silvery, glittering Solid mist Leap to the Sky. Sea And the sun Seems to bend Shining on them Like a spotligt The clouds seem to bow and the sea Sings. In a rhythm of splashing To the living life Of the Salty Blue Water. Sea. by Ashton |
