DANCING

Our spring winds blowing
yellow creosote blossoms
bow to their partner.



The plants are changing
their dresses drop to the ground
springtime allergies


   Can you use the word SPRING to write an acrostic today?  Have fun writing.

Start by writing the word SPRING down the left side of your page, then fill in the words.

Special time,
Plants
Release new leaves
In
Neon
Green.

I'm sneezing. I'm sneezing
in this strong breeze.
It's raising the pollen
and my allergies.

   What is something that makes you sneeze or gives you hiccups?  Can you write a poem about that today?  Have fun writing.

SPRING

ah-ah-Choo!
Pardon my sneeze.
ah-Ah-CHoo!
It's not a cold.
It's allergies.
ah-ah-Choo!
Will you hand me
a tissue, please?
Ah-Ah-CHOO!
I'm trying hard
to remember
to use my sleeve.
AH-AH-CHOO!


    When I was a little girl we carried handkerchiefs.  When we got a little older we learned how to embroider our hankies.  We did not learn how to sneeze into our elbow.  But then, I always had a funny, little kitten sneeze.  Can you write a poem today with the word sneeze in it?
