Kids’ Poetry

“We went to the mountains of Joseph,

To a center with pictures galore

And furthermore

They were gorgeous,

We all devoured our food,

We arrived and tumbled from the hill,

We all fell and were frozen solid,

It was hilarious to see my classmates roll down the hill,

When the races started, the crowd started cheering,

It was as loud as a circus,

The dogs were so furry and cute,

And after the race I slipped down the hill

And hit my face..”

"I felt as cold as ice on a winter morning.

I saw dogs

they were faster than the Flash

My experience … the best.

I smelled the winter breeze.

I tasted my PB and J.

I was as tired as a sloth.

I rolled down a hill and went 100 miles per second.

And I loved it"

“Eagle Cap Extreme

It was such a dream

I saw many dogs

It was fantastic

I tasted snow

Then felt it blow

The experience was fabulous

Seeing all the dogs

It smelled like dog poop

hmmm I wonder why

Ha ha ha! You should probably know why

Now you know the story of the big race

Hope you enjoyed, see you another day!.”

"The Dog Sled Race

I felt the dogs’ effort,

The dogs felt like they were in a construction site.

I felt the cold; it was as cold as a freezer.

I saw snow that was as white as blinding light,

I saw dogs and people.

I saw the sky; it was as blue as the sea.

I saw the trees that were as tall as three men standing on each other.

I saw the drones flying in the sky;

they flew so high that they went into space.

I experienced the racers wanting to win.

I experienced how tiring climbing up a hill is;

I was as tired as a man that did not get any sleep.

I experienced the cold; it was as cold as ice.

I smelled fresh air.

I smelled the glory of the racers.

I smelled the trees.

I tasted the carrots in my lunch. I tasted a sandwich."
