Etheree Poems

Winter Spring
By Mrs. Rizzuto

Spring
April
Daffodils
begin to bloom.
Warm sunshine struggles
through the still chilly air.
Colorado's winter air
still lingers past the end of season.
Heavy snow, blankets our neighborhood.
Providing an unpredicted Snow Day!


My Dog
By Elli

Fuzzy
Doggy's bones
Digs in out
of the big hole.
All dogs playing ball outside.
The dogs having fun every day.
They play a fun game called catch;
All the dogs sniffing their tails in air.
The dogs having a good time catching the balls.
All dogs playing catch in the backyard with some friends.


Winter Light
By Jesse

Sparkling
in the
hot summer light
having fun every day.
Falling from the beautiful sky;
Making snow-tip mountains with cold snow.
Come in home and get hot chocolate;
And you say "Yum, thanks Mom!" and play.
Have fun every single day making awesome snow forts!
Whatever you do, donÕt stop to play Éjust go on.


Space
By Ian

Space
floating
hovering
above us all
staring, looking at
all of us may be cool
but looking back, you see a ...
a planet. No wait! Two, you see
Now you see three. No four. No five. No ...
Now you see nine planets, what is it now?

Puppies
By Molly & Erin

Puppies
Any color
Big or Small
Kids loving them today!
Puppies being born everyday.
Puppies chasing their tails everyday;
Puppies digging holes to put the bones in.
Everyone loves them, even Queens love them so much.
Puppies singing good bye."Roof, roof, roof, roof, Good bye!"


Chewi
By Ethan

Chewi
Chewi, Chewi
Chewi, Chewi, Chewi
I really love Chewi.
I really, really love Chewi.
Chewi is a very good hamster.
Chewi, a very, very, really messy hamster.
A very, cute, very fuzzy, fluffy, furry hamster.
A cute, not so smart fluffy, fuzzy, furious hamster.
HeÕs a very, very fluffy, furious, messy sneaky, sleepy hamster!


Light
By Jesse

Dashing around the world,
Making an outstanding sight,
Going into space
the making of the bright sight
is the blinding hot sun!
So say, "Thank you," for your beautiful sights and all you do.
It comes to a stop when the moon comes up
and the sun goes down.
Yes, it is the end of the day.
Now it is night
and we all go to bed
and wait for the day light.

Snow

By Molly & Delaney

Snow
Falling
From the sky
White as can be
Kids building snowmen
Kids having snowball fights
Kids having fun in igloos
My nose is turning red today
Kids going inside for hot cocoa
Let's go inside kids, it's time for bed now!


Squeaky

By Lindsay

Squeaky
New pet
Squeaky is fun
Squeaky is so amazing.
Squeaky is so, so, fat.
Squeaky is fun and very fat.
Squeaky is so fun, fat, and fast.
Squeaky is so cute as can be today
Squeaky is so, so, so, so, so, so, cute!


Games

By James

Games.
DS games.
Fun to play.
Really fun to win.
Play and find new things.
Fun to play the new games.
I have nine different games to do.
I like to play my new games today.
I have more games than my sister has to play.
Super Mario 64 is a fun game to play today.


The Gerbil

By Megan & Emma

Cute
Long tail
Very very fluffy.
Gerbils are very fast.
They are so, so fat.
They like to run on wheels.
They eat, drink, sleep all day long.
Eating, drinking, sleeping, having fun, and loving us.
We love them so much as they eat, drink, sleep.


Fried Chicken

By Edie

Crispy
Very good.
Juicy fried chicken.
I like it lots.
Very yummy in my tummy!
It is so great and delicious.
It's good, great, and it's super tasty.
It takes lots of time to cook it.
And it needs a side dish called BBQ dish.
It's good, great, and you will love the fried chicken!



Rain Forest
By Mrs. Rizzuto's Class

Rain
Falling down
Wet, misty, foggy
Animals squeaking, croaking, roaring
Birds chirping all day long
Predators catching prey all the time
People searching, studying about the rain forest
Animals in the rainforest climbing up and down.
Macaws swooping down grabbing a scared frightened mouse.
The rainforest is a magical place, don't you think so?

Florian Poems

My Class Room
~Madison

Awesome, classes,
Gives me drinking glasses.
Big, teachers,
In the bleachers.
Good, desk,
Give me tests.
Good, food,
Why are you so rude?
Drinking, milk,
Makes me melt.



Baseball
~Ethan

Get a hit, make a mitt,
Get a kit.
Throw a pitch, catch the pitch,
Find a witch.
A boy named Mick, makes a hit,
Also threw a pitch.
Win the game,
Wickedly Nick.
Win a mitt!


Puppies
~Molly

Cut, pup,
Buttercup.
Brown, black,
Don't sit on the tack.
Dogs, playing,
Puppets on string.
Eating, bones,
Grab the phone.
Chasing, balls,
Run into walls!


Camping
~James

Watching, fires,
Finding tires.
Eating, smores,
My dad shores.
Finding, wood,
Put on a hood.
Seeing, rivers,
I got the shivers.
Grizzly, bear,
Has not hair.


Baseball
~Jack

Ball, bat,
I got in a fight with a hat.
Strikeout, pop fly,
Why did you lie?
Baseball, cap,
You like to snap.
Manager, dugout,
You have a big snout.
Win, loose,
Take a snooze!


Summer
~Erin

No school, sunny,
My Daddy's funny.
Rain, plants,
My daddy lost his pants.
Activities,
weather,
My mom lost her leather.
Camps, summer school,
I go in the pool.
Hot, free,
My DaddyÕs kidney.


Basketball
~Ian

Dribbling, shooting,
Shivering hooting.
Score, winning,
It's a bore winning.
Slam dunk, free throw,
How did you know?
We lost, they won,
I want lettuce on a bun.
Say "Good game", shake hands,
I hear an egg frying on a pan!


Wimpy Kid
~Daniel

Wimpy, skinny,
I'm really mini.
Small, losing,
Always oozing.
Slow, weak,
Has a beak.
Failing, trying,
Bob is crying.
Sad, boring,
Your really stinking.


Medusa
~Jesse

Snake, hair,
LetÕs snare.
Gray, eyes,
Makes her eat flies.
From, Hades,
Two old ladies.
From, dead.
To be fed.
Half, snake,
Eating cake.

~Jake and Ian

Reading, books,
Take a look!

Mystery, scary,
My mom's name is Mary.


Frogs

Sticky, feet,
Give me a treat.
Hopping, flopping,
People robbing.
Poison, cut,
Play the flute.
Different, colors,
Loving mothers.
Blending, in,
People win!


Animals
~Edie

Tigers, wolves,
Don't have hooves.
Bobcats, mountain lions,
My brother is Ryan.
Deer, bears,
Don't have cares.
Dolphins, whales,
Don't have tails.
Ducks, birds,
Are big nerds!


Weather

Mrs. Rizzuto's Class

Winter, weather,
Give me leather.
Blowing, winds,
Kicking shins.
Four, seasons,
Have no reasons.
Hail, rain,
Is a pain.
Snowball, fights,
Give me my rights!
