Here are some of our amazing poems that are in the works as we explore different types of poetry this month. We are getting used to "thinking like poets" at school and at home!
Mice Fast and furry, You like to scurry. In a hole, like a mole. Beware of traps, for they snap. They like cheese, they don't make me sneeze. In my house, you're a mouse. They like to nibble, on my dog's kibble. Fear of cats, some afraid of bats. Mice ~Nick B.
The leaves blow in the wind and past my face. I climb up the cliff as my hair shimmers, brown and gold. Rock after rock, I move on. The leaves rustle beneath me. Birds glide past me. But no matter what happens, I'm determined to get to the top, and nothing can stop me. ~Katie
I can do anything I want to do, Nobody can tell me to stop or go. I can run as fast and as far as I can go, And nobody can stop me. I can do anthing I want to do. ~Chloe
There is an Elmo in my class. He takes up a lot of mass. When you tickle his tummy, he sounds like a mummy. If you squeeze his nose, he can laugh like a hose. Elmo has big eyes, sometimes he cries. His fur is red, and he sleeps in bed. Elmo is very young, and he has a huge tongue. He has a very big mouth, and he lives in the South. He has a fish that can make a wish. That's the Elmo in my class! ~Elma
My dog and I went to the store. On our way we found a board. My dog is hairy and shaggy. When my dog goes to the bathroom, be sure to grab a baggy. It's as big as a cow. What am I going to do with it now? We finally reached the store, Oops, I dropped it on the floor. ~Ashley
Flying colors upon the screen, Getting brighter while resting at ease. Hyper bolts as blue as the sky. It's like the sun in the midnight breeze. They go so fast and then they freeze. ~Blake
Snails are very slow, I don't think they even grow! Hard to hold in your hand, Somtimes they dig through the sand. Slimy, oozy, grimy creatures, Too bad they have unusual features. ~Alex
Snake Very scary Long and scaly Any color One another Have no ears So many fears Some live in dry places With creepy faces Have no fear, Snakeboy is here. ~Michael S.
It's spring now Soft ground Beautiful sounds, But not too loud. And there's lots of treats, for you to eat. The birds are chirping, with the worms, they're slurping. It's spring you hear, Time when's there born deer. It's a beautiful day. Is that what you say? It's spring. It's a fun time. Do you like my rhyme? ~Craig
Traveling is so slow, Every place I go. Day and night I travel far, It is scary, It is boring, Just to see one simple thing. Taking some road I don't know, Going through dark tunnels. Now we're going fast. The road shall take me where it wants. Traveling is so slow. ~Nick W.

Mice
ReplyDeleteFast and furry,
You like to scurry.
In a hole,
like a mole.
Beware of traps,
for they snap.
They like cheese,
they don't make me sneeze.
In my house,
you're a mouse.
They like to nibble,
on my dog's kibble.
Fear of cats,
some afraid of bats.
Mice

Climbing in Autumn
ReplyDeleteThe leaves blow in the wind and past my face.
I climb up the cliff as my hair shimmers, brown and gold.
Rock after rock, I move on.
The leaves rustle beneath me.
Birds glide past me.
But no matter what happens,
I'm determined to get to the top,
and nothing can stop me.
~Katie
Lizard
ReplyDeleteLizard, lizard on the wall,
do not fall.
With your slimy hand
how can you fall?
But I remember,
you are on a wall.
~Michael B.
What Being Free Means to Me
ReplyDeleteI can do anything I want to do,
Nobody can tell me to stop or go.
I can run as fast and as far as I can go,
And nobody can stop me.
I can do anthing I want to do.
~Chloe
Running fast, across the road,
ReplyDeleteSuper fast, not slow.
Tigers run as fast as me.
Uhoh, I ran into a tree.
I better get a band-aid before I bleed.
~Jimmy
There is an Elmo in my class.
ReplyDeleteHe takes up a lot of mass.
When you tickle his tummy,
he sounds like a mummy.
If you squeeze his nose,
he can laugh like a hose.
Elmo has big eyes,
sometimes he cries.
His fur is red,
and he sleeps in bed.
Elmo is very young,
and he has a huge tongue.
He has a very big mouth,
and he lives in the South.
He has a fish
that can make a wish.
That's the Elmo in my class!
~Elma
I just wanted to say I love your poetry. I can't wait to see more of your posts. Mrs. Moehlmann
ReplyDeleteMy dog and I went to the store.
ReplyDeleteOn our way we found a board.
My dog is hairy and shaggy.
When my dog goes to the bathroom, be sure to grab a baggy.
It's as big as a cow.
What am I going to do with it now?
We finally reached the store,
Oops, I dropped it on the floor.
~Ashley
Flying colors upon the screen,
ReplyDeleteGetting brighter while resting at ease.
Hyper bolts as blue as the sky.
It's like the sun in the midnight breeze.
They go so fast and then they freeze.

Aligators can bite
ReplyDeleteBeware the alligator.
Careful, it will bite you.
Don't get near it.
Run away, it is chasing us!
~Samantha
Dancing
ReplyDeleteDancing as I'm turning,
as well as learning.
Running through the house,
Oops, I crushed a mouse.
Dancing once again,
With my friend Jenn.

After School
ReplyDeleteWhy am I stuck here
in this little room?
Did I get in trouble?
What did I do?
I guess I'll have to wait,
for tomorrow's fate.
~Phillip
Snail
ReplyDeleteSnails are very slow,
I don't think they even grow!
Hard to hold in your hand,
Somtimes they dig through the sand.
Slimy, oozy, grimy creatures,
Too bad they have unusual features.
~Alex
Guinea Pigs
ReplyDeleteChubby, cute
Squeaking, running, loving
I had one called Hammy.
Miniature pigs
~Danielle
Popcorn
ReplyDeletePopcorn goes "pop, pop"!
It's so good you'll never want to stop!
When you ask your mother,
be sure to put on a lot of butter!
Grab a bowl and a drink,
it'll be done before you blink!
Now that you're ready to eat,
How about we share the treat?
~Nicole

Shooting, scoring, winning
Slap shot

Snake
ReplyDeleteVery scary
Long and scaly
Any color
One another
Have no ears
So many fears
Some live in dry places
With creepy faces
Have no fear,
Snakeboy is here.
~Michael S.
Spring
ReplyDeleteIt's spring now
Soft ground
Beautiful sounds,
But not too loud.
And there's lots of treats,
for you to eat.
The birds are chirping,
with the worms, they're slurping.
It's spring you hear,
Time when's there born deer.
It's a beautiful day.
Is that what you say?
It's spring.
It's a fun time.
Do you like my rhyme?
~Craig
Traveling
ReplyDeleteTraveling is so slow,
Every place I go.
Day and night I travel far,
It is scary,
It is boring,
Just to see one simple thing.
Taking some road I don't know,
Going through dark tunnels.
Now we're going fast.
The road shall take me where it wants.
Traveling is so slow.
~Nick W.
