Poet in Residence, part 2

Last Friday, I posted poems written by students in my son's grade 4 classroom. I served as "Poet in Residence" during the fall.


Today, I continue sharing their work.

Dinner Web

Dinner came here
For the spider
It is not a deer
it’s a fighter

A dragonfly came ready
his name is Freddy
He fought
but he got caught

CHICKEN TEENAGERS WITH HOTSAUCE
One day while I was sitting in a field
I was eating chicken wings
as the breeze
hit me in the face
the chicken wings were good
they were buffalo chicken wings

my mouth was burning
like a … ouch ouch ouch
why is there hot sauce in my mouth

I must have fallen asleep
and those teenagers
put hot sauce in my mouth

The Sweet Sounds Of Fall

Kids crawl

in piles of leaves.
Crisp leaves fall
from tall trees.

Cold wind slithers
across me like a snake.
I DASH on my bike
and bonce on the bumps.

I wear a costume
each Halloween.
I wear something
SCARY!
I carve a pumpkin,
with a grin.
And
school begins!

Thanksgiving Morning
everyone is in a good mood
and ready for all the yummy food
All the family is here
talking loud with cheer
we all watch football
then we nap to end it all.

your warm welcoming’s in the cold winter

warm maple syrup

your bumpy skin like a driveway
you dropping 
                         clump
                                     clump

the warm maple syrup the tree next to you
had gave me

oh wait I think you might be a...
