Slowness

By Caroline

As slow as…………
A turtle walking all day,
An ice cube melting away,
An old dog learning new tricks,
A computer with a virus,
An inchworm crawling,
A sloth climbing a tree

Bananas [Second Edition]

By Grace S. and Emma V.

The creamy inner filling-it’s the best part!
Mushy, squishy, yummy in my tummy,
Sweeter than a tart!

Bananas, bananas,
They’re my favorite treat!
Bananas, bananas,
Really fun to eat!

I peel away the thick yellow skin-
Come on, banana, let me in!

Bananas, Bananas
They’re so cool,
Bananas, Bananas,
Too cool for school!

Delicious and soft and smooth
We all start to groove!

Bananas, bananas,
They’re so rad!
Bananas, bananas
Best food I’ve ever had!

The Last Day of School

By Peyton O.

Yes! The time has finally come

For us to play out in the sun'

Anticipation is in the air

The sun shining on us with a glare

With one more minute 'til summer begins

We wait...

For the bell

That starts our summer

Five, four, three, two, one!

Summer is here! 

Give a cheer!

Fastness

by Caroline k.

As fast as…………

A jet plane zipping through the air,

A chameleon’s tongue flapping in and out, ​

A cheetah running through the dry grass,

A bird flying up in the sky,

A piece of food falling off the table,

A dog catching it before it hits the ground,

A Nascar racing around the track,

A horse in the Kentucky derby running all around

Earth

By Osker W.

Turning, turning round and round

A big blue ball that holds all the people and all the towns

So blue with a touch of green

Only from space the beauty is seen e

That man first encountered when he traveled to space

It’s turning gray and bleak

From gushing factories that rot an d reek

But there is help you see

Please reduce, recycle, and reuse

And earth’s beauty we will not loos e.

The Man on The Corner

By Peyton O.

Most people don't talk to-The Man on The Corner

Ignoring him, managing their busy days

Most don't know he has something to say

Finally, someone stops to talk

And more pieces of the world fall into place

Therefore, a lesson was learned

Listen to everyone, and something will be earned.

Ice Cream!

By Grace S.

Whenever I hear the tinkling bell

I feel super swell!

 

‘Cuz I know that I’ll have a great day

If I have Ice Cream, nothing can get in my way!

 

I love the sweet taste on my tongue

It makes me feel ever so young!

 

When it drips on the floor

It makes me cry and beg for more!

 

Best in Summer and Spring

If I have Ice Cream, I can do anything!
