One of My Heroes: Pastor Joe

One of My Heroes:  Pastor Joe

Pastor Joe is a really nice guy.  He praises God, and once he gave me a soccer ball with the Bible on it.  He is really nice and really funny.  He gave us some apples once because he has an apple tree.  Pastor Joe is really nice.  He is a hero to me because I can see it in his heart.

I’m Talking Fast!

I’m Talking Fast!

(a thesaurus poem)

 

I’m talking fast!

I’m talking not slow!

I’m talking from walking to running!

I’m talking jogging, hopping, jumping!

I’m talking moving, flipping, never standing still!

I’m talking high speed, swift, rapid, quick, nimble!

I’m talking FAST!

If I Were in Charge of the World

If I Were in Charge of the World

 

(Form change poem with thanks to Judith Viorst)

 

If I were in charge of the world,

I’d cancel school, vegetables, and also annoying people.

 

If I were in charge of the world,

There would be more candy, more video games, and lots of money.

 

If I were in charge of the world,

You wouldn’t have spiders,

You wouldn’t have veggies,

And you wouldn’t have annoying people.

 

If I were in charge of the world,

Good food last and worse food first would be the rule,

All people would be always rich,

And a person who sometimes was nice and sometimes was messy

Would still be allowed to be

In charge of the world.

 

I’m from Me

I’m from a big place that is close to school.

I’m from a good smell of chocolate chip cookies that my mom makes.

I’m from hunting with my dad.

I’m from a good smell of mac and cheese that my sister makes.

I’m from roasting marshmallows while camping with my dad.

My Splot House

My dream house is going to be white with a big tv and with a big pool.  It will have cool cars and a big playground.  I’ll have a floating bed!  I’ll have a floating bedroom.  I’ll have lots of gum, and I’ll have a zoo in my house.  I’ll have an infinite amount of food and snacks.
