WWII

WWII

You hear the sounds of WWII

The unforgettable sounds of war.

You hear the Germans yelling.

You hear the guns firing

You hear the shouts of men,

Ready to die for their country

You see the Americans charging,

Defending their country and freedom

You hear the generals shouting.

You wish it wasn’t so

But the war is real

You wish you weren’t picked

To fight this war

But you stand your ground

And the other men dying around you

Bullets whizzing by your ear.

And count your stars you weren’t picked but this is what it was like

For my grandfather.

MOUSE RIDING AN ALLIGATOR

MOUSE RIDING AN ALLIGATOR,

ATE A TOMATER.

MOUSE RIDING AN ALLIGATOR,

SAID HE DIDN’T CATER.

MOUSE RIDING AN ALLIGATOR,

NAMED A PLANT SLATER.

MOUSE RIDING AN ALLIGATOR,

NAMED A BIRD MATER.

MOUSE RIDING AN ALLIGATOR,

WRESTLED A BOAR.

NOW THAT MOUSE AND HIS ALLIGATOR ARE NO MORE

AN AMERICAN SOLDIER LIKE AN OAK

An American soldier is strong like an oak,

An American soldier will never give in like an oak,

An American soldier is free like an oak,

An American soldier is someone to look up to like an oak,

An American soldier will never back down like an oak,

An American soldier is our friend like an oak,

An American soldier lives in the U.S.A.

And an American soldier is like an oak in many ways.

Grandparents

Grandparents are our parent’s parents.

There our grandmas and grandpas.

Grandma makes the best pie I can’t lie.

Grandpa makes a boring day fun.

Our grandparents are so grand.

Their heads full of waves of vast knowledge.

And grand parents are like parents to me.

my pie poem

My love of pumpkin pie

I love pumpkin pie to much to lie

about my love of pumpkin pie.

Pumpkin pie is a sweet treat to eat.

Needs wippedcream or I’ll scream.

Pumpkin pie is oh so sweet.

Everyone needs to eat this sweet treat.

Some love it more than me.

But my love for this sweet treat is the most love for a treat I’ve ever seen. Sometimes it looks like a fable. The masterpiece of the table. My mom wishes me sweet dreams.

But my head takes it to literally and I dream of the sweet treat known as pumpkin pie.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a thankful day.

It’s a day of feasting.

It’s a time of plump tummies.

People eat themselves sick.

They stuff their mouths full.

They gobble down that turkey.

It’s a time of pie.

And it’s a time for an all you can eat at home.

Friends

Friends are the ones who cheer you up.

They are there by your side ready to help when you are hurt.

They stand up for you in your time of need.

They give you company at thanksgiving.

They will help when they are asked or needed.

Friends are the ones who make every day life fun.

Friends are what make school worth looking forward to.

They make you pie.

And friends are just friends to me.

READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                “Hey Bill come here!” yelled mom. Now Bill was upstairs playing videogames when his mom called so he couldn’t hear her. His mom called again, “Bill, its dinner time!” Bill walked downstairs and ate dinner. After dinner Bill went upstairs and went to bed. The next morning Bill packs his flashlight, granola bars, and his water bottle. After he was packed he went to a cavern he had been to many times before. This time it was dark and gloomy instead of clear and sunny. Bill didn’t care and entered the cavern not paying attention to the sign that said, “DO NOT ENTER!!! Infested with Black Mambas, Monsters, and risk of flood and cave in!!!!!!!!”  As Bill entered the cavern he heard a crumbling sound. Then he heard a loud CRACK! Bill jumped out of the way just in time to see the entrance to the cavern collapse. The cavern was pitch-black so Bill tried to turn on his flashlight but it doesn’t work. Suddenly he hears a dripping sound. Drip. Drip. Drip. Bill became very scared when he remembered the sound from a book he read were a thirst driven kid was lead to his doom by a liquid monster using the sound of dripping water. Bill remembered it was just a story. The sound continued, drip, drip, drip. Bill gathered every ounce of courage and advanced to the sound. The problem was the closer he got the farther away the sound got. He stopped to think “is it an echo or is it the monster like in his book?!?!?!” He decided to continue toward the sound only to find himself at the edge of a pit of Black Mambas. He nearly stopped himself from falling in. After that he was very cautions. As he moved on he heard another sound in the corner. This time it wasn’t a dripping, but a growling.

                Bill stopped and listened, and then suddenly a hideous thing jumped out and jumped him then knocked him out. When Bill came to he heard the sound of 100,000,000 monsters. The sounds sounded like fans at a wrestling match. There was a fire in the middle and towering above it was the thing that jumped him. The thing introduced itself as the monster king. It had the body of an ape, the head of a jaguar, and the tail of a domestic house cat. It challenges Bill to a fight, and Bill accepts. Soon both of them start advancing towards each other exchanging glares as they circled the fire. Without warning the fight begins. The only thing that was visible was the occasional shilloute of the punches being thrown at each other. Then the monster king let out an angry growl. He yelled “the human has escaped in the pitch-black darkness. Find him and KILL HIM!!!!” Bill had ran away and hid behind a bolder. After a while Bill saw a monster advancing towards him with a torch and a knife. The monster stopped next to Bill and turned to stare t him. Bill froze in fear. After 3 hours of that monster stareing at him it moved on but in a faster pace than normal. Bill knew it was going to tell the monster king where he was. Bill took that opportunity to sprint to the end of the cavern. Then he saw a light at the end. He thought for a moment, “ should I advance toward the light or go back?” Finally he headed to the light. He was joyed to see a creek that he remembered well. He ran with the creek and into the backdoor of his father’s shop.

The End

The Great White Shark

Here is my expository writing on The Great White Shark, 

Everybody out of the water, it’s a shark!!!!! That’s not just any shark, that’s the Great White Shark.

Are you amazed? Well that was just a taste. This whole paper is filled with amazing facts that will blow your mind. Read this paper and find all those amazing facts.

     The Carcharodon Carcharias or known to us as the Great White Shark is probably the most feared yet the most misunderstood shark ever in our common time that’s so because it attacks people and we think that it dose it porously but it confuses surfers for seals . It’s probably also the most powerful shark thanks to its muscle packed and stream lined body. A full grown male weighs over 7000 lbs and reaches lengths up to 23 ft. Well amazed, If not you people don’t know half of the facts on this amazing creature. So if you like my paper so far please read on and find out why it’s classified as a fish.

     Okay if you listened you will read on, and find out more about The Great White Shark. The Great White Shark is a cold blooded hybrid carnivore. In its own defense it will attack any thing that gets to close to it or it’s young.  This creature’s defensive weapon is its rows of super sharp serrated teeth witch is meant for ripping and tearing through flesh. Instead of lungs it breaths through its gills. If provoked it can turn really mean and vicious. So stay away from it. It’s one of those animals that give birth to live young. Their young are 5 feet at birth and have 2-14 pups or babies at a time. Luckily even though it’s greatly prized and hunted the Great White Shark is not endangered. Are you amazed? Well read on, don’t stop, and find out more.

     The Great White Shark is a migrater. The females are the ones that migrate the most. The Great White Shark travels alone and is rarely seen in pairs. They love to live near the most temperate coastlines. They will viciously attack anything that gets to close to it or its young. So the Great White Shark may be peaceful at times but never throw caution to the wind when dealing with these magnificent creatures.

     So let’s review what you learned. You learned what the Great White Shark looks like, why it’s classified as a fish, how it uses its teeth to defend it self, and how it reproduces. Remember never stop learning. The animal kingdom has the most amazing creatures. Keep on learning
