Springtime

By Markell T.

S     In spring you can see the sun
P      In spring pollen starts growing
R     In spring roses grow
I      In spring insects appear
N     The flowers are nice
G     The green grass grows
T     Tulips are growing in gardens
I      In spring you eat ice cream
M    In May it is Mother’s Day
E      Exhibitions display paintings by
         children at the museum

Colors of Spring
by Gaelle M.

Spring is a rainbow of colors
Spring is as pink as the
cherry blossoms in the park
Spring is as red as the setting sun
Spring is as orange as a mango
Spring is as yellow as a daffodil

Spring is as green as the grass
Spring is as blue as the sky
Spring is as violet as pansies and irises

Spring is a rainbow of colors

Springtime

By Devion E.

S   Sandals on my feet
P    Pollen in the air
R     Rain coming down
I      Insects everywhere
N    Nature, Oh so beautiful
G     Green grass which I love to smell
T     Tulips are starting to bloom
I      Islands I can go visit
M     Motorcycles ROAR!
E      Everyday is a sunny day
