Poetry Winter - 77' Last winter to me was the best, Just to say the least. The snow was good for sledding, Even if it wasn't good for fishing. The ice was good for crossing So we did lots of passing From place to place. They began digging and plowing to clear the roads. Taking it out with the end loader by bucket loads. They kept down town open. Finally the roads were clean. We had beaten that mean scene, Of the winter storm. Paul Matso August The city dweller all complain When August comes and brings no Pavements burn up their feet, When the temperature is too great. They slow their pace, and wish They were in some other place. rain. Farmers don't mind the heat, Because they know it will bring Corn and wheat. We love to see the sun rise red And remember what the farmer said: 'An August month that's dry and warm Will never bust the farmers pride! Mike Seeholzer Teacher Teacher, teacher look here, Come and see the big brown deer, Teacher, teacher look there, Come and see a big bear. Teacher, teacher l'll see you later Cause I don't want to be eaten by that alligator, Teacher, teacher what is that? Teacher, teacher that's a bat. Teacher, teacher where are you. Teacher, teacher you're in a zoo. Scott Willis Spring When the snow is slowly melting, And buds are beginning to bloom, lt's a sign of Spring coming, and l hope it gets here soon. Vinnie Thorne I was looking in a window And I thought I saw the wind blow. I opened the door, And fell on the floor. I was going to get up, And started to get the hiccups. I went tothe air. I went to the porch, And saw a horse. I went to a bar, And found my car. Connie Matso What l Thought I Saw! I looked all around, And what did I see, little green squirrels up a red tree, tree was red the sky was brown. blue rabbits all around town. Two Ran The And 100 Ran But the squirrels are not green, The sky isn't brown. There is not a blue rabbit In our little town. Our squirrels are red, And the sky is blue, The rabbits are brown, And the trees are too. Charles Harris

.3-nunlrf Through EXPERIENCE Mike becomes a PROJ Wishes There was a little girl who had a wish, And it wasn't for a fish! All day she would sit and say I wish a pony would come and stay. To her father she asked, Can I have a pony at last? His reply made her sigh, For a pony he said he would buy. But only he said, If you go straight to bed! So away she ran, Because she was happy with his Plan- Nicole Dye N , 5.44 . Look at the caterpillar. Cat I had a cat That always sat On my bed. She would purr When we'd pet her fur And stand on her head For a little cat She was fat And even wore a hat. She'd take a walk And to the birds did talk But always did come back. Missy Willis Snowman My snowman ran Into a lady On a winter day. She was made of snow So she did move slow And could not run away. They had some fun But could not run Before the sun came by When they were done She said Oh my And in a puddle did die. Lisa Matso
