If I were water I'd turn a consturction site into a pool
If I were water I'd go in peoples homes and destroy their
prized pesetions [possessions]

If I were water I would break everything I see.

Poem by Julie
I had a dream where everything
was pink and blue then I heard
a pink. It was from a pink girl

"Bison"
Poem by Lynsey

He looks like black and brown
cotton balls. He has a hump on his head.
He has brown mud on his mouth. He
has a tag on his right ear. One eye
looks closed and the other is open. The
bison looks hurt. He looks mad!
He's thinking about the animal or
person who tried to hurt him and
he wants to hurt them back.
He thinks, "I love the sunrise."

"Comparisons"
Poem by Lynsey

The grass is like seaweed.
The house is like a box.
The wind is like steam.
The snow is like Icecream.
The sun is like a happy face.
The stars are like cookie cutters.
The apple is like wheels.

Poem by Antonia

I dream I go to Disneyland.
I dream I would be famous.
I dream I could help the poor.
I dream of living in the city.
I dream of living in the country.
I dream of owning a restaurant.

Poem by Antonia

Her lipstick was as red
as a apple. She was
as pretty as a white rose. His
eyes twinkled like the stars.
Her hair was as long as a leaf. The shadow
was as dark as the night sky. The apple
was as shiny as a diamond. The
clouds are as puffy as cottonballs.
The diamond sparkled lke glitter. The paper
was as white as the
clouds. The wind was as strong as a
tree swaying.
His goldfish was as
orange as a orange.
