Numbers
a poem by Andrea P.,
Grade 5

It could put everything I did since the morning Till the night: one I wake up, Two changed to my cloth, Three washed my teeth, and on and on
Everything I eat everyday Number by number Number by number

Dark Roses
a poem by Andres M.,

Numbers
a poem by Briceida V.,
Grade 5
I like the long numbers They way they are counted You can count them like if You're eating pickles And drinking juice
I like counting fish That are different colors And have different designs On them.
You are counting cookies That you like and cookies You don't like.
And multiplication Of people by people and Teacher by teacher When I count I feel Like I'm singing

Marting Who
a poem by Carlos S.,
Grade 5
Who throw balls in the air And watches it fall Who watches T.V. Who bites like a pointy knife. Who jumps on me And who says shut up Who is cute like a diamond And is like a little star Who is sort like a blanket And like a cloud of rain Who name begin with the letter M. And who call my name Who like is better than a bunch of coin Who has light brown eyes Who is my brother

Roller Coaster
a poem by Cesar P.,
Grade 5
You are in a roller coaster going up and down, You get stuck, you fall down, now you can't Wake up, now you appears in a theater watching The Scariest Movie, watching it closely and Screaming. You appear in a cemetery Getting scared in the dark, trying to Wake up but you can't, you see a Ghost there coming towards you running Away from it getting scared, and now You appear in a park, relieved of all Those places you wake up.
