Rhyming Couplets

Harry Potter
Harry might do a spell,
But could end up in a cell.
Harry knows a spell, um...
Its name is 'expecto patronum!'
Harry is a good guy,
Who stopped Lord Voldemort and didn't die...
by Elias



Dog Gus
I know a dog named Gus
He likes to ride on a bus.
Once he was riding in a car
He traveled really far.
Once he was on a train
Then it started rain.
by Christian



Dogs
Dogs have short tails,
They always visit jails.
Dogs always bite their nails,
But they never go to S.A.I.L.S.
Dogs always drink from pails,
They always travel along river trails.
by Evan



Fish
Fish have little tails,
Sometimes they have small or big tails.
My fish like to swim,
They can even be clouds.
by Ryan



My Cats
Ishi doesn't have a long tail.
Koki has a long one,
They both think sleeping is fun!
by Rainie



My Backpack
My backpack is pink
And it doesn't stink.
My backpack is new
And it is cool.
My backpack has hair
and I don't care.

Cats
My cat is fat
It caught a rat.
It lays on a mat It chased a rat.

Football
Football rocks!
I have stinky football socks.
I have fun in the sun
In football I have to run.
In football I like to be seen
I hope I don't lose my spleen!

Music
Once I watched a music video
That was really cool.
Because they played music
In a pool.

Wars
My dad was in a war
He tried to say it's yours.
But he had to get to the third floor
Then he had to go to war.

Green Day has a good songs
But they are long.

She loves to lay on a mat.
She lays on the ground
Purring around.
If a bandit came she would catch them
If there was a chicken
She would pluck um.

My cat plays with my dice.
Then it lands in the rice.
Then my cat becomes nice.

Wishing For Spring
The ol' groundhog was right
No spring in sight.
The rain, hail and snow are soo cold
This spring weather is getting old!

Well, they're all yelling,
And the dog's jaws are shut tight!

The clock shows,
Whistle blows,
