Poetry Friday: Featuring Student Work

Thanks to Robyn for hosting Poetry Friday this week.

A fifth grader shared her poem with me this we. She told me I could use it today.

Cherry blossoms

pink flowers sprouting
up from the ground petals
falling from the trees

life is delicate
just like a cherry blossom flower
life ends fast

i just started kindergarten
the cherry blossom trees give me comfort
i’m determined now

petals falling off the trees
dancing toward the deep green grass
falling all around

by: Catherine C., 5th Grade
