Morrigan

In The Woods

In the woods,
During Autumn,
my favorite place.

The

leaves
Like confetti at a birthday party.
All over the trees
and the ground
there is

Red
Brown
Orange
Yellow

My favorite place

The birds singing,
The squirrels scampering,
The mosquitoes sucking your blood

My favorite place

The hard ground
beneath
your feet

Then.
Rain.
Mud.
Mushy Mushy Mud.
soaking through your shoes
and socks

Rain.
Mud.
Trees.
Leaves.

The Woods

My Favorite Place

Morrigan, it was cool how you wrote the word falling. And how you said the leaves were like confetti. -Tai

Morrigan, I loved how you wrote falling, and compared the leaves to confetti at a birthday party. Also, I like how you wrote red, brown, orange, yellow. You did something different instead of writing it all the same way. I also like how you said the squirrels were scampering. It is such a fun and exciting word. Lastly, I like how you repeated at the end. Your whole poem was FANTABULOUS!!!

Dear Morrigan,
You did awsome. You used some amazing figurative language/similie. The way you repeated "My favorite place" reminded me of how Maria Testa wrote her poems. I was sad when it was over.
Sincerely,
Samantha :-)
