Me
Me, I’m a girl, but I’m not girly.
In fact, I really like archeology.
Chemistry, insects, dinosaurs, anatomy,
Help!
I’m trapped in a world of science!
Eels, amphibians, reptiles, slime,
Like this stuff?
Well, so do I!

Bio Poetry
Dolphins
Dolphins are really quite funny
They have nothing to do with a bunny
Dolphins are very loveable
They are also quite adorable
I really don’t think they’d be yummy.
Limerick
Color Poetry
Bright as the sun
Shimmering like a giraffe
Gentle as a flower
Is gold
Lovely as a sunset
As attractive as a rose
Patriotic on the flag of the U.S.
Is red
Dark as the ocean depths
As light as the sky
Calming as the shallow waves
Is blue
Dark as a violet
Light as a lilac
Amazing as the depths of space
Is purple
Pale as cotton candy
Bright as a cherry blossom
The color of many flowers
Is pink
Dark as a dungeon
Dull as dust
Frightening as outer space
Is black
Dark as an olive
Light as the grass
As calm as the leaves on a tree
Is green
Lively as a dolphin
Dull as text
Dark as twilight
Is gray

Sonnet
I Just Ate
Some bananas that
Were on the counter
That you were probably
Saving to bake
Banana bread
Forgive me
They were so mushy
So sweet
And so sticky
Humpback Whale
As the Humpback sings
Its mournful song
It swims slowly.
Each pulse of its tail
Is like a heartbeat
An endless rhythm
Doomed to continue
For all eternity
Dolphins
Dolphins are funny
They make me feel so joyful
They aren’t like bunnies
They are always playful
Gliding silently
Through the sparkling sea
Never acting violently
They are quite a sight to see
When they breach
They open up your heart
When they’re beached
They give you quite a start
When they die
You are always so sad
When they jump high
You are very glad
Dolphins are miraculous
They always heal your heart
When you’re sad
They understand
And come back to see you depart
Giraffes
Giraffes
Gold as the sunrise
Giant as the moon
Giraffes are
Gentle creatures
Gigantic though they are
Trees
Trees
Tall as the moon
Growing gentle leaves
To make their food
Trees are innocent
You can’t blame them on anything
Some smell like cinnamon
Trees are very useful beings
Giraffes
Galloping at high speeds
A blur of gold and brown
Is a giraffe
The power it possesses
Of nature, nothing more
Is enough to overwhelm you.
To make you
Passionate about animals
That’s what it would like.
Nothing more.
