More poetry from Room 8
Room 8 students have been working collaboratively to create poems. Here are 2 of them:
1. Autumn:
Outside I hear crunching leaves and whistling wind.
I hear icy hail falling on top of my roof,
Tui chirping in the breeze of autumn.
The weather is a mixture of cold and warm.
I smell hot chocolate and soup.
Friends’ houses and school are the places you go in autumn.
I quickly put on my jersey, pants and puffer jacket.
Leaves fall off the trees.
The trees have become naked.
I see red.
I see orange.
I see green.
I see yellow.
I look around and see squirrels and chipmunks collecting acorns.
It starts to get cold so I decide to walk home, on the way I smell yummy pumpkin pies.
