AUTUMN Cold autumn winds blow. Summer leaves, now red and gold Fall slowly to rest. jM Namrita Kohli, Grade 6 SEASONS ARE BRIGHT Winter is cold. The wind is bold. Seasons are bright, In the summer light. Spring is warm. And the bees swarm. Fall has trees With rusty leaves. Tracy Hyba, Grade 4 THE WIND The wind blows in circles, Blowing the fallen leaves around. Blowing anything in its path away. Adrienne Soles, Grade 6

SPRING Silent streams. Prancing ponies. Romping raccoons. Intelligent insects. Nice narcissus. Grand guppies. Katie MacNaughton Grade 6 A fir tree standing all by itself was taken away because of bad health. Poor poor tree. Avery Bassett, Grade 6 JUNE I just can ' t believe it; It ' s happened at last! School ' s finally ended, The time really passed. The last day is over; The minutes ticked by. The classroom is empty. Hurray for July! We ' re free for the summer, The beach and the pool. It ' s hello to baseball. And good-tye to school! Brigitte Kopas, Grade 6 19

A PERFECT JEWEL The raindrop, A perfect jewel soon to be lost. Leaves rustle, some fall. The wind whips through the fields; Tu „ there is silence. Last drops linger and fall from The velvety petals of roses. There is the scent of lost happiness And joy. Kari Taylor, Grade 7 THE SEAL So sweet. So soft. So lovely. So tender, But why so Extinct? Aldine Belsham, Grade 7 BALLET DANCERS Magnificently graceful dancers, Who balance beautifully on their toes. With rainbow ballet outfits That glisten and glimmer and sparkle Like a midnight star Twinkling in the sky. Janet Anthony, Grade 7 MOUNT PLEASANT Old Mount Pleasant is in repair. And everyone is in despair. It makes traffic very slow. Everyone gets mad you know. I come another way So I won ' t be late On a very special date. Wendy Tidy, Grade 3 THE ODD BEAST His coat is tattered, worn and old. His hair is all messed up. He watches his land with button eyes. And yet he never moves Except when he sways in the wind. His arms and legs are tied To keep his insides in. And yet he never complains. The weather beats him And the only shelter he has is a flimsy little hat And yet he stays outside. Stacey Hervey, Grade 7 DEWDROPS Dewdrops Glistening, clear Melting fast away Ephemeral beauty of morning Tears of happiness. Gigi Hull, Grade 7 GREEN The school uniform is dark green; It can easily be seen. When walking and talking the Branksome girls Sing and do some funny twirls. In our uniform we dance and scream. And we always eat ice cream. Samantha McLaren, Grade 3 As lazy as a hippo, but lively at night. Some people say I ha c bat man eyes. What am I? Heather Manley, Grade 7 21
