Etheree Poems

Worms
Wiggle
And jiggle
Tunneling through
The moist ground below
Our feet as we walk down
The sidewalk that goes to school
As we play on the playground now
After recess we study earthworms
That wiggle and jiggle and dig below.

Mrs. Swindle's 2nd Grade, 2010



Frogs
Jumping
Up and down
Frogs are slimy
They jump very high
Swimming in the water
They love to jump on the pads
They eat flies all day long, jumping
Let's go to a pond and find a frog
I got a frog for my sister today.

Keira, 2010



Dogs
Digging
Hiding toys
Running around
Then taking a break
Beside the fireplace now
Dreaming about tomorrow
When they wake up they chase the cat
Then they go wild and bark so loud
Some times you can't understand what dogs say.

Makayla, 2010



Cats
Are cute
They eat good
Cats lick a lot
When they have babies
The mommy cat feeds them
They love their owners a lot
They sleep in the day and the night
They play in the afternoon outside
They play with other cats and their babies.

Amira, 2010



Birds
Birds fly
Birds eat worms
Birds fly very high
Birds lay eggs in nest
Birds love to sing all day
Birds love to sit on their nest
Birds fly through the sky in the air
The blue bird is very pretty and shiny blue
Birds love to sit on their nest and hatch eggs.

Natalia, 2010



The Garden

We
are in
the garden.
There are roses.
There are daffodils.
We have ten sunflowers.
We have a lot of pumpkins.
We have a lot of cucumbers.
We have the biggest garden because the animals need the apples right now.

Kody, 2010



Dogs
Barking
Sleeping through
The long night
Doggies everywhere
Doggies are in the grass
Doggies are playing with us
Doggies love to play all around
Doggies are running when you play tag
Doggies are fun to play with.

Gratian, 2010



Dog
Barking
Ruff, ruff, ruff
Dogs go walking
Through the big, big park
They bark at other dogs
They play at the park with dogs
They jump on you in the morning
They are very, very playful pets
When you come home from work they jump on you.

Allie, 2010



I
Planted
Sunflowers
Today at noon
They are beautiful
I love to look at them
They are my pretty treasures
When I am sad they cheer me up
I like sunflowers more than lilies
Sunflowers smell sweeter than good perfume.

Megan, 2010



Birds
Flying
In the sky
Having fun too
Birds sing all day
At night birds sleep all night
In the morning they wake up
And then they sing and take a bath
Then they fly and sing in the day
In the sky today they play all day long.

Darlene, 2010



Cats
Bouncing
Cute, fluffy
Messy kittens
Lay around a lot
They are lazy, curly
Cats are naughty and stinky
Kitties also have a cat box
They will eat bananas and yogurt
Cats can drink water and take a bathtub.

Trevor, 2010



Dogs
Jump high
Are mammals
Dogs are mans best friend
Dogs can dig deep holes
People like lots of dogs
People have at least one dog
People and dogs like each other neighborhood
Dogs like other dogs in their neighborhood
Dogs chase their own tail because they like it.

Andrew, 2010



To Do

Seed
Plant squash
Plant flowers
Plant tomatoes
Plant sunflower seeds
It grows fast night and day
Where flowers are really green
And tall sunflowers are growing
The sunflowers are yellow and straight
Sunflowers are growing in my garden.

D.J., 2010



Dogs
Barking
Through the night
Ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff
Doggies everywhere
Some like to chew - chew toys
They love to get on your bed
All dogs barking all through the night
Some like to bark and dream about cats
They snore every night and growl in their sleep.

Caden, 2010



Rocks
Dirty
On a hill
They are harder
Than clear glass windows
Is the window open?
Next thing I'll hear is a crash
Hard rocks are fun to throw at walls
Rocks are hard a nd fun to throw at dirt
Hot lava turns to rocks when it gets cold.

Sean, 2010



Black
Dragon
Blowing fire
Eat fish at ponds
Sometimes they are small
Dragons lay eggs in caves
Dragons have long pointed wings
Lose and win battles with brave knights
They have a big fat tail with sharp spikes
They protect their babies and their treasure.

Gavin, 2010



Dog
Barking
With their friends
Fetching the ball
Running on the grass
Chewing on chew toys
Barking at squirrels in the trees
Raiding the garbage cans in town
Chasing the garbage truck down the road
Walking back home and going to his bed.

Joshua, 2010



Sea
Turtles
Laying eggs
In the sand
Digging up their eggs
Leaving to the ocean
And baby turtle hatching
From their eggs and running to the sea And they run to the sea as fast as
They can go to the sea when they're bigger.

Daisy, 2010



Read!
A book
Sad, happy
Excited too
Fun, scary, or small
Animals, sea creatures,
Jack and Jill my favorite.
Dairy of a Wimpy Kid
History books are fascinating!
Art books make me feel creative and smart.

Lindsey, 2010

Earliest Memory Poems

The Big Jungle

In the big jungle
Swinging on a vine
But missing my friends
Getting fanned

Pretending to be Tarzan

Allie, 2010



In Vancouver
Skiing
Feeling the wind on her face
Competing in the Olympics

She wins a gold medal.

Joshua, 2010



In Disney World

In Disney World
Going on the rides
Excited!
Bright lights

It was fun!

Lindsey, 2010



Hawaii

In Hawaii
Swimming
Happy me
Watching sea turtles

Pretending to be a lifeguard.

Keira, 2010



In the clouds
Flying with wings
Feeling good
Bumping fluffy clouds

Flying happily.

Megan, 2010



Rollercoaster

Santa Cruz
Riding the Hurricane
Scared!
Beach boardwalk

Fun. Screaming!

Sean, 2010



Four-Wheeler

In the field
Riding a four-wheeler
Scared, a little bit
Bumpy field

Four-wheeling is fun!

Gratian, 2010


The Mouse

On the soap bar
Slipping and slidding
Laughing
In the bathtub

Being silly.

Makayla, 2010



Cat at home
Drinking water
Feeling sleepy
Cozy bed

Long ago memory.

Trevor, 2010



Snapper

In Six Flags
Seeing dolphins swimming
Feeling happy
Water slide mountain

Six Flags is fun!

Daisy, 2010



In town
Looking
Very thirsty and hungry

At home at last!

Gavin, 2010



In Globe, Arizona
Seeing my family
Sad
Grandpa Roark died.

My dad cried.
