Fall Poetry!

Haiku #1: The Spice of Life 

Heading to Dunkin’ 

For a warm refreshing treat

That tastes like pumpkins


Haiku #2: Splish Splash 

Seeing the rainfall 

Grabbing a yellow raincoat

To splash in the street


Haiku #3: Lost in the Corn 

Surrounded by corn 

Oh no! Another dead end 

Try another way


Haiku #4: Carving the Night Away 

Sketching a pattern 

Cut out the eyes, nose, and mouth

Lights up the driveway 


Haiku #5: The Vivid View 

Waking up early 

To climb the nearest mountain

Enjoying the view


Haiku #6: Bundled Up 

Lounging on the couch 

Four blankets to keep you warm

Turn on the TV


Acrostic Poem #1: Nature’s Pillow 

Hopping onto a bright red tractor 

Arguing with your friend over whose pumpkin is bigger Yearning for a hot cup of hot chocolate 

Running to the nearest hay bale 

Interested in purchasing one to replace your old pillow at home

Dozing off as the tractor begins moving 

Entering a sound sleep

Acrostic Poem #2: 

Halloween is right around the corner 

Anxious to see the Reed’s famous haunted house Uniting hand in hand with your friends 

Nearing the entrance of the house 

Terrified of what is waiting for us inside 

Entering with all senses on high alert 

Doubting that you will make it out without screaming 

Hearing a chainsaw right behind us 

Obliterating the nearest piece of glass with our screams Uttering pleas for help 

Seeing the exit right ahead 

Entering a full sprint to make it out alive
