The Battle The battle begins

and the knights attack

Darkness filling the battle field

Pawns racing toward the enemy

Bishops striking each other

Who will be victorious?

Smash,

Smash,

Smash,

Warriors falling

Sacrificed to survive

Destruction

Will the battle ever end?

4 warriors, 3 warriors…

One team wins

and the opponent declares a rematch

We set up the chess set

and the battle begins again

Dream

Say goodnight

and the impossible becomes possible

Some are happily ever after

Some are not

But which one will it be?

Bad or Good?

The question remains unsolved

Until you go to sleep

Eliana BooneMrs. Lee’s class

Holly’s Poems

By: Holly Bruccoliere

Dedicated to my family

Fear

Dark, dark night around yousilent, silent night

unable to move, barely breathingstrange noises all around

Scared, scared, scared

the night swallows you whole

a nightmare, a mere nightmare

but no, fear is real

Morning a steady stream of sunlight

shone through the window

at dusk

the birds begin to chirp

early in the morning

a beautiful time of day.

a cool breeze whips through your hair

a rooster crow

fills the air

a yawn

a stretch

a lamp on

Morning.

A Place For Me In a tree A house for me To stay and read a book

Flowers

The water lilies in shades of pink

The roses, painted dark red

Where every color is found

Where beauty is found –

Oh, flowers

Kayla’s Poems

My Bedroom!!!!!!My room is so messy,

My room is so clean,

When my room is clean it’s like a dream,

When it’s messy my parents get very upset,

And when I clean with liquids,

I get very,very wet,

Then I get upset,

It’s better to have your room cleaned then you being wet and very,very,very upset!

Micah’s PoemsMrs.lee’s class

Williams Brice StadiumThe black and garnet fans

Jumping and waving

Up

And

Down.

12:00 in the afternoon.

The sun is aiming down on the players.

The big hut! As the QB snaps the ball

And the crowd roaring every touchdown.

Is my

Team going to win?

The vibration as the student section goes crazy.

Garnet, garnet, garnet. Who’s the best team of all?

The Gamecocks!

Lebron James

Tall, black, and a big back.

Down the court, three sec. later,

Boom! He steals the ball.

Racing down the court he slams the ball

down and there’s another top play for him.

He makes it look easy but it’s not.

He’s a baller, a rebounder, he’s lebron james an awesome baller.

PoetryBy Micah Smith

TacosCrunch, crunch, crunch

Down my throat it goes

I’m going to enjoy eating 500 tacos.

10, 20, ugh 30, 40, 50, 60

no one is going to stop me

I’m eating 500 tacos

lettuce tomato and all I’m eating 500 tacos

but 500 that’s all

I’m sitting on a taco mound at least 460 tacos tall

the tacos are going down

but will they come back up?

Dodge ball

Balls flying

people getting out

catch the ball catch the ball the players chant

two people left in the game

one catches the ball and wins

the whistle blows the game is over

Miracale’s PoemsMrs. Lee’s Class

Sing a Song Sing a song

Sing along

There goes

The beautiful voices of those singers

The notes

Smash

Against those student’s ears

See the students

Mouths open

Up so wide

A beautiful note

Comes racing out

Like a race car

The students think it’s so lovely

To sing more

Sounding like such professionals

Clap like they can’t stop

And the singers just bow

SwimmingThe beautiful babyBlue color of thePool kids jumpingIn and outThe sun beamsDown threwThe windowSwaying threw theWater like a hoola Dancer kids screamingJoy parents laughingAnd slurping on juiceThe kids are having soMuch fun they did notWant to leave

The Mountain Swing

Swinging on a mountain swing swinging over a Cliff

On a hot summer day Everyone is laughing as we take turns on the

swing

Will we fall, will we have fun Swinging, swinging, swinging on a

mountain swing, laughing, laughing, laughing, Together as a

family Cheerfully, peacefully,

Having fun

The BeachSummer time is the best time of the

year. You can go to the beach, swim in

the pool, and play in the waves at the beach.

Everywhere I look I see waves, you can go looking for seashells too.

The fish are swimming under the salty water.

The water stings your eyes like the devil stings your heart.

Boats are going down and over the waves.

Up and down, up and down, up and down, up and down.

Tre’s PoemsMrs.Lee

Tacos

Tacos, tacos, tacos

Tacos are good with cheese and meat.

A hard taco and when you take a bit it sounds like

crunch

crunch

crunch .

I love tacos.

A Nice DayThe bright sun

And baby blue sky

The sun peaking out of the clouds

The wind

Swish, swish, swish

Will the sun go away?

A warm and cool night

A nice day.

Zoe Ward’s Poems Mrs. Lee 4th Grade2012

ColorsAre you pink or green or purple or blue

Do you know what color is best for you

Are you orange, blue, teal, or white

Maybe red like dynamite

All the things that make you true

All the things that make you…you

The Tornado

Bam! Smash! Swish!

Swirling in circles like being sucked into a funnel

What is this queezy feeling

Cutting corners faster than lightning

up up

Down Down

Going over fast bumps

Then… DROP

I am in a big funnel

It spit me out

WHAT A FUN WATER SLIDE!!!
