Watchers Poetry

We read the poem 'Watchers' by Martha Morseth and went through and identified the time words and the verbs (doing words).  We are now writing a poem using Martha's as an inspiration.  Here are some of the first verses we wrote.  The finished poems are published on our learning blogs.

At midnight a hawk
glided to my window, 
and scratched against 
the glass.

By Maddox

At night time a spider
climbed up its web
and one-eyed me
through the window.

By Joshua

At midnight a possum
climbed a tree and
was staring at me
for hours while 
I was sleeping.

By Lexis

In the afternoon a bird
swooped down and
landed on a branch
and peeped in the window,
looking at me drinking
my refreshing juice.

By Alden
