Years 2 & 3

POETRY

Despite our numbers being down due to illnesses, the remaining students wrote wonderful poems entitled  'Walking Through the Bush', using their 5 senses.

Walking through the bush                                  Walking through the bush

What do I see?                                                        What do I see?

A kangaroo jumping towards me                      A waterfall

A twig and a bee.                                                   Falling above me.

Walking through the bush                                   Walking through the bush

What do I hear?                                                       What do I hear?

A deer trotting                                                         I hear a deer   

Loud and clear.                                                        Loud and clear.

Walking through the bush                                    Walking through the bush

What do I smell?                                                      What do I smell?

Emu poo                                                                     Some blossom bright and yellow

And an old egg shell.                                              And an old egg shell.

Walking through the bush                                     Walking through the bush

What do I feel?                                                          What  do I feel?

Leaves tickling my face                                          Sticks poking my heel

I do like their feel.                                                     I don't like their feel.

Walking through the bush                                     Walking through the bush

What do I say?                                                           What do I say?

I love walking here                                                   I want to do this

I could do this all day.                                              All day.

Walking through the bush

What do I see?

A blue wren flying to trees

All around me.

Walking through the bush

What do I hear?

An emu walking over leaves

So loud and clear.

Walking through the bush

What do I smell?

Honey blossoms blooming

All over the ground

Walking through the bush

What do I feel?

Leaves dropping water

And sticks tripping me over heal.

Walking through the bush

What do I say?

Hip, hip hooray

Today's the best day!!!!!!!!!!
