Second graders at Bryant School in Kerry Scharte's class just finished up with a poetry unit and share their animal related poems.
"Dogs"
My dog's name is Maggy.
She is very shaggy.
She loves to bite

But she doesn't know how to write.
My dog eats bones.
She talks on the phone.
My dog is funny.
She acts like a bunny.
Maggy loves to bark.
But she is scared of the dark!
She is silly!

Really?

"Horse"
I have a horse.
Her name is Dorse.
She races.
She chases.
She is round.

Her color is very brown.
She loves her saddle.
But it always rattles.
She is large!
She looks like a barge!

"My Cat"
My cat can run.

My cat has fun.
My cat climbs a tree.
He has no flea.
My cat was sound asleep.
And it gives me a creep.
My cat can eat.
A real special treat.

"The Green Turtle"
The turtle was wet.
He got stuck in a net.
He ate some eggs.
He grew some legs.
He walks in the sand.
And he was right on land.
He made a mess.

I couldn't care less.

"Dog"
A dog likes to lick Mick and Rick.
A dog likes to get a lick from Mick.
A dog can fetch.
A dog can catch.
A dog played in a band.
He knows how to use his hand.
A dog ran to the store.
And now he is very poor.

"The Green Fish"
The green fish can swim.
He swam past the limb.
Green fish, green fish, why are you green?
So when I wake up I am mean.
I hope when my pet goes swimming
I don't get wet.
