How Sweet it is!

The Country

Spring

Kyrie Irving

Wheat waving in the air, Chickens clucking everywhere, Cows mooing in their stalls, Roosters singing their morning calls, Red barns dotting yellow fields, Birds fluffing their feather shields, Maple trees waving their leaves, Farmers rolling up their sleeves – “Cluck!” “Moo!” “Meow!” “Ruff!” The country is a good place, SURE ENOUGH! Christa Freeman

Spring Princess Rainbow I <3 spring Nature Good day! LaToria Clark

Kyrie Irving is the Cavaliers Point Guard, He’s a very good player because he works hard. He’s a very good player, in fact he’s a star, He’s the Cavs’ best player this season, by far. Soon he’ll be one of the best players in the NBA, He’ll be winning playoff games for the Cavs in May. Evan Akers

Volleyball

Grade 5, Gibbs Elementary

Very fun Over the net Let your hands and feet do the work Let the ball go over the net Everytime the other side will try to hit back You know what to do Bend your knees and get ready for the ball As you see the ball coming hit it over to the other side Let your team help you Last minute do your best. Jalyn Hoffner

The Untold Poem

Grade 5, Lake Cable Elementary

The ink has all dried up, The paper is nothing but ashes. This ache of mine is untold. These words seem deep for a 10 year old, For it is truly night, Ten pm, if my time is right.

Toys

Grade 4, Homeschool

Spring Spring is nice outside Places with flowers everywhere Remember of spring break In my house I watch TV Not going outside when it rains Going to go outside when nice Anton Brown

For the one I loved, She is dead. She was my teacher. I started a poem for her, Until the idea faded away. She is in heaven now, And I never told my poem to her. This is the tragedy of… The Untold Poem. Sierrah Schnabel Grade 4, Whipple Heights Elementary

Toys toys are not just for boys. Toys toys bring me so much joy. Woody, Buzz, and Legos are my favorite toys. I like to ride my bike. I like to fly a kite. The main thing I like to build is my train. Connor Smith Grade 5, Lake Center Christian School

Bear Bear runs slow Bear’s super ugly Bear’s super dumb Bear’s black and fluffy like a big fat grown up cow. And all I got to say is he just a ugly dog. Wyatt Deutschman

Grade 5, Lake Center Christian School

Flower Flower, flower, it’s time to wake up! Stretch and yawn, take off the nightcap. Everything else has risen, it’s your turn. The morning sun is awaiting your arrival. Come on flower, make haste! Up you go that’s a good fellow. See, I knew you would like being out in the warm summer air. Melanie Will Grade 5, Lake Center Christian School

Teachers Teachers are as helpful as can be. They say words like honey on a bee. They never give up, they never back down. Teachers are fabulous. Teachers are kind, as kind as tall giraffes. They’re here for me and here for you. They try to have fun and they want to have fun. Teachers are fabulous.
