The Swim Meet
By: Sam
Hearing the event getting called,
100 yard freestyle,
looking at my arm
the black sharpie with the event on it
going to report putting on the swimcap
stepping up to the block
putting on my goggles
seeing the starter
listening to the words
“swimmers step up”
“take your mark”
hearing the whistle
diving into the water hearing a splash
25 yards doing a flip turn
50 yards another flip turn75 yards
hearing people yelling and cheering
then touching the wall
finished
Masterpiece

she was beginning to shout
for what she saw she began to draw
and that is where she got her
masterpiece

In A Hurry
By: Sam
In a hurry no time to spare
must go hurry and brush my hair
better go brush my teeth
before my mother can even speak
for if we’re late
she will not wait
no time to spare
so bye there
Dog
By: Sam
She went to pet the dog
but turns out it was a hog
so she kept feeling sad
and then left feeling bad
Poe
By: Sam
Poe likes jam
all over his ham
then he eats
with his feet

Safe and Sound
She went to bed all safe and sound
till she heard someone pound
she got up still in fright
in the middle of the night
but then she saw her brothers hound

that Bethany Doolittle
came to my house
with a basketball
wanting to scrimmage
