Poem #137

Here's one from Alessandro...

    Snow   Lion


   So   much   depends
   Upon   a   snow   lion
   Camouflaging
   In   the   snow.   Their
   Glittering   green
   Eyes   shining   in   the   sun.
   The   snow   lion
   Tackling   the   snow   with   his   claws.
   So   much   depends
   Upon   a   snow   lion.

Thanks, Alessandro!

Enjoy the nice weather, everyone!
Hope to see you tomorrow morning!

Poem #135

Here's one from Michael...

     Ocean


   Ocean   drifting
   Through   sea.
   Waves   crashing
   To land.   Waves
   Drifting   up
   Salt   water
   Taste

Thanks, Michael!

Have a good night, everyone!

Poem #133 and #134

Here are two more poems! One from Alessandro and one from Lylith...

        FBI


  I   am   an   FBI   Ninja.
  FBI   Ninjas   are   brave.
  They   can   climb   walls.
  They   are   strong...
  I   am   an   FBI   Ninja.

Thanks, Alessandro!


       Red


  Red   is   the   color
  of   one   red   apple.
  Red   is   the   color
  of   two   red   sweaters.


  Red   is   the   color
  of   three   Cadoozles.
  Red   is   the   color
  of   four   red   colored
  pencils.


  There   are   many
  Things   that   are
  Red.   I   like   red.

Thanks, Lylith!

Have a good night, everyone!

Poem #131 and #132

Here's one poem each from Reina and Carter...

       Cat


  A   cat   slinks   around   the   neighborhood
  Black   and   frightening.   It   climbs
  A   tree   and   it   sleeps   with   it's   place.
  It   walks   and   chases   a   bird   and   eats
  It.

Thanks, Reina!


     Boomerang


     Flying
     All   around
     In   the   air
  And   close   to   the
     Ground


     Going   from   me
     Far   far   away
     Coming   to   me
     From   far   far   aw-
  ay

Thanks, Carter!

Have a good night, everyone!

Poem #130

Ms. Whalen introduced several first graders to a poem by William Carlos Williams. Eva and Lylith used that poem as a model for their own...


So   Much   Depends...


So   much   depends
Upon   flowers
Glazed   with
Water   beside   the
Red   bucket
Under   the   sun

Thanks, Eva!


So   Much   Depends...

So   much   depends
Upon   horses
Upon   wind
Chasing   it
Upon   the   prairie   soil

Thanks, Lylith!


Have a good night, everyone!

   Slow
