Poems by Kaleigh

This is a collection of poetry from the sixth grade school year.

Travel
It kind of makes me scared
traveling somewhere new
It's kind of like a whole new world,
where you don't know anybody
I don't know any of the languages,
Spanish, Chinese, French, I should really know french
After all, I'm going to Paris
I will get to see the Eiffel tower,
And I will get eat croissants too
I am still nervous about going to Paris,
But also excited as well
I don't know anything about it,
But I will learn

Nature
I love nature
The birds speaking to me and singing songs
The trees dancing along with the wind
I love the way the rivers whisper to the rocks
The way flowers show off their pretty colors
The baby deer prancing around, letting the world know they are there
I love that finding animals in the winter is like finding a needle in a haystack
The way that frost climbs up on the windows creating designs
The way that the sun hugs you with a blanket of warmth
I love nature

School Nap
She sat in school and awaited the bell
As the teacher talked her thoughts took off
The Light bulb glowed like the sun
The Fan gave off a breeze as cold as a winter day
She still awaited the bell
She waited ,and waited, and waited
When the bell rang, the girl did not go
Just stared at the board confused and unaware

Baking
Eggs, cream, sugar, and cocoa
At first it seems like putting these things together is loco
But when you blend them all together for a minute and a half
You see all together and it makes you kind of laugh
You pop it in the oven to see what will come out
Wait twenty minutes and clean up about
Take the tray out of the oven and see the treat
A smile spreads across your face as you eat
You think it tastes good so you decorate like crazy
Put iced roses on the side and on the top a nice daisy
Ice on some grass and a tiny little sun
Add a few sprinkles and say “ This is fun!”
Put it in the fridge and plop in a chair
After you wait you go see your cake and know that you put in great care!
Show your family and cut your masterpiece
Breath out a sigh of relief
If you love baking with all of your heart
You’ll do it again, all from the start!

The beautiful sounds of Nature
Noise
Annoying songs of birds
Too noisy to read
Ugly sounds of raccoons
Raging cats as dogs try to play with them
Even to loud to fall asleep

Christmas is here
Christmas is coming so gather ‘round, all
I want a puppy, a book, and a small stuffed doll
“It’s not all about the presents” say the adults
If that's true then why do they get us great gifts for  results
I snuggle up by the fireplace with my brother and cat
 But the flame then goes out so I put on a hat
I bake Christmas cookies and brew up some tea
I looked out the window and what did I see?
I saw snow coming down 
I looked out the window and looked at my snow covered town
So ran outside and sledded down the hill
My sled’s very fast so it gave me thrills
I went back inside since the snow gave me chills
I went to my mom and said in a cheer
“Merry Christmas to all and have a happy New Year!”
