If my mom were a color,
She would be red.
She would be a radiant red rose.
If my mom were anything,
She would be respectful,
Because she is sweet.
If my mom was a favorite food,
She would be a lovely pizza,
Delicious, yummy and bubbling with happiness.
If my mom were a computer
I would Google her.
I would find princess dots
And stuffed animals.
If my mom were a piece of furniture,
She would be a soft bed
For me to sleep peacefully.
~Faithe
If my mom were a color,
She would be a warm, sunny yellow
Bringing feelings of delight to everyone around her,
Encouraging friendship, love, and compassion.
If my mom were anything,
She would be a vegetable garden
Enclosed with marigolds to keep away pests.
She would have rich soil to nourish the seeds and plants
Growing into appetizing veggies for us to enjoy at meals.
If my mom were a dessert,
She would be creamy homemade yogurt
Full of healthy probiotics and sprinkled with
Scrumptious dark chocolate and raspberries.
If my mom were a computer,
She would be Windows Media Center
Creating the Christmas plays' scripts, scenery, and costumes
For the Sunday School classes to present to our congregation.
If my mom were a piece of furniture,
She would be my grandfather's solid oak rocking chair
Joyfully reading her grandchildren their favorite stories,
Then lovingly rocking and singing them to sleep.

Outside our classroom window
We look for the weather every day.
We watch for the sun, rain, and clouds.
We see oak and cedar trees
Dancing in the wind.
We see gray skies
Telling us when rain is on the way.
We see the eagles
Flying above the school.
We hear frogs croaking
Telling us it's Spring
Outside our classroom window.
~~ Room 105 Poets
In my backyard
I pick flowers every week.
I look around and
I see trees.
I look up and
I see a sun.
I see clouds in the sky
That tell me it’s going to rain
In my backyard.
~~Alayna
The rock I found
Is blue.
The picture on it is Skylanders.

The back pictures on
The rock I found.

Inside my desk.
~~Christopher
In my gym
I see bars, beam, floor, and vault.
I practice so I get good at gymnastics.
When I practice,
My coach tells me what to do.
Sometimes I practice dangerous moves,
Like back flips and front flips
And handsprings and aerials.
Sometimes I get to do the easy moves,
Like cartwheels and back handsprings
In my gym.
~~Claire
The rock I found
At my friend’s house
Looks like a crystal.
It's white like glass and
Gold on the back.
And it is still in my room today
The rock I found.

Then, it’s just me,
Sleeping…
In my room.
~~Faithe
Playing Minecraft
I get a lot of messages,
Asking – Join me please!
My brother does nothing.
I answer the messages.
Then I continue,
Playing Minecraft.
~~Garrett
Inside my desk
My pencil box sits.
My folder, I see, too.
My calendar,
My reading book,
And anything else.
Until my next work,
They sit and stay
Inside my desk.

For great fun

Talking to their mom and dad.

Singing to their babies
Above my neighbor's door.

I sit on the branch
Looking at birds.
I climb up and down.
I get my dog’s ball,
Bring it up on the top of my tree.
I throw the ball down.
I bring my basketball up in the tree.
I throw it down.
I bring my friends up
In the tree,
When they come over.
I bring my dog’s leash with me,
When he is on it.
I bring my toys up in the tree.
I bring food for snacks as I sit
Up in the tree.
~~Sofia
Outside my window
I see cherry and apple trees
Blossoming with tiny pink flowers,
Offering the promise that sweet summer is near.
I hear the cry of eagles
Soaring through the sky,
Teaching their young to hunt, to fly, to live.
I smell the heavenly aroma of lavender plants
Stretching through my front garden,
Presenting a relaxing, calming fragrance.
I feel the amazing beauty of nature
As I gaze up at a sky of puffy clouds
Colored by the setting sun,
Shimmering pink, blue, gray, and white.
I feel my connection to the sights, sounds, and scents
Of the Universe
Outside my window.
