Autumn

What I see in fall: a pile of leaves that have fallen from trees, the shiny sky, and a lot of birds. I hear the crunch of leaves, wind moving. I taste the air on the tip of my tongue.  I also taste the taste of a plant (its not that bad). I smell that beautiful smell of flowers, like the perfume my mother wears, and the beautiful smell of earth, like the air on a humid day.

On My Skin - a haiku


Howling in my ear
Freezing breathes on my skin
Wind is wonderful

Outside in the Fall


Elizabeth eating plants
Ms. Frye talks out loud to us
That’s what surrounds us.

Thanksgiving Break

Hi there huskies!  I know it is Thanksgiving break, but the Horizons club has been busy the past few weeks.   That means I will continue to post new pictures and poems in the next few weeks.  You'll get a new post every day or two, so keep checking in.

If you want to see your poetry and artwork on this website, drop by Mrs. Frye's room (Room 120) after school on Thursdays.  You can create art with us, or bring in a project you've been working on at home.

Have a happy Thanksgiving!

Autumn Haiku

Flowers standing tall
But crinkled and brown as if
Their lives have blown off.

Limerick of Fall

The time has now come for the fall.
These are the days robins call.
I'd rather not gloat,
But I do have a coat,
So I go suggest that you go to the mall!
