My Backyard
a poem by Alissa S.,
Grade 5
To the smell of fresh air in the morning
and the quiet sound outside until the deer
come and eat the leftover tomatoes
on my left side. The smell of dead
deer on my right, the birds are playing
happily until they fall. The coyotes are
hunting for food just like me when
I'm hungry this is my jungle this is
my backyard.
