SNOWSHOEING
 

Snowshoeing is fun.
Hearing the snow
crunching
under my feet,
going miles and
miles.
Seeing lots of animals
creeping on the white
snow,
frozen and sparkling.
"Crunch," go the
snowshoes,
crunch, crunch, crunch.
"Tweet," goes a
bird.
Crunch, crunch, crunch,
going through the
woods.
Crunch, crunch, crunch,
breaking little
twigs
under my feet.
"Caw, caw,caw," goes a
crow.
Smelling the evergreen
trees, sniff, sniff,
sniff.
Feeling the sweat
on my hands under
my
very warm gloves.
Trying not to slip
on
the slippery ice,
but I did…
Wheee!
Wham! Ouch! That hurt!

HUMILIATION

When I was just a little critter,
I sat on a chicken from the litter.
My dad laughed and laughed
so hard...
He ended up falling
down
in the yard.

HUMILIATION


When I was just four,
and standing on the floor,
I couldn’t reach very high.
So I decided to try
to stand on the toilet seat,
using my feet,
but I slipped and I fell
and I started to yell,
"Mom, I’m in the toilet!"

EMILY GRAY


Emily Gray is the girl I like.

She is very cute.

I asked her out a million times.

I Love Emily Gray.

SELF-PORTRAIT


My hair is like a dark brown sneaker.
My eyes are like the brown on Saturn.
My fingers are like claws.
My head is like a fly.

My heart holds gladness that is colorful as a rainbow.

I live in your head and eat your ideas.

I USED TO HAVE THIS DREAM…

 
One night I stayed
up in bed.
I closed my eyes and then…
I was in a space ship.
I saw no one in sight.
I looked for an exit,
I started to tire.
When I saw the Exit,
I jumped out
soon as possible.
Then he called after me…
He said, "I am
only here for
the beer,
you see!"

TOO HORRIBLE TO TELL


A cold winter day…
I go out to play.
Bundled in snow clothes,
I grab my sled and
head for the hill.

Sledding fast,
I see a fence…
too late!
CRASH!!!

I broke my sled,
I split my lip.
Cold and bleeding
I go to my aunt’s.

That’s the end
of fun that day.

HUMILIATION


I was in my highchair,
sitting by the sink.
Wearing a pretty bib,
the color was pink.
The bib was pink with a duck.
I thought it was good luck.

Mom fixed me lunch,
a peanut butter sandwich,
I started to munch.
Crunch! Crunch!

I fell asleep,
my sandwich became my pillow.
my face felt slimy,
I felt really grimy.
I was all whiny
till Mom came and shined me!
