Below are some of the poems written by the students who participated in this program during the 2024-25 school year.


Carolyn Beatrice Parker Elementary

  • Sand mounts in a trail belong to pocket gophers.

    Brownish, long, thin leaves everywhere.

    I feel them here and there.

    Fresh air reminds me of a palm tree.

    Which takes me to the sea.

    When in every corner are loud crickets.

    My dad still plays wickets.

    The forest was big like an elephant but more enormous.

    The trees waved at me as if they were calling me.

    Hi to you too little and bit trees!

  • The cows mooing louder than the sonic boom

    Hear children roaring when the bell rings

    Ear’s shaking like trembling rocks

    Feel the beat of the farm

    A pig oinking like thunder

    Roaring everywhere

    Might you come there?

  • Let’s go for a walk zebra tail butterfly so pretty as a flower

    Timuaua hut walls made with straw

    Sheep feels like a cloud

    Cow big and stinky

    Chickens cute and small

    Pig dirty and big

  • On the bus to Morningside it was loud

    When we were there

    Everyone ran off the bus

    On the nature walk we sat down

    We close our eyes and

    We heard the trees

    It sounded like they were talking to us

    Then we saw a snake named Dan

    I was scared to pet Dan

    He looked like a chess board

    Then we played Chunkee

    People were yelling so loud wen they won

  • Beautiful sunny day.

    Walking to the farm

    Sheep are soft like a plushie

    Snakes are scary as the sea.

    I feel the air the air feels invisible.

    I touched the snake the snake was soft as a pillow

  • I saw two brown and white cows with short horns.

    I heard the sheep say a low baaaa.

    I smelled cow poop. it was disgusting.

    I felt the moist lips as the sheep ate the seeds from my hand.

    The pigs were as black as a panther.

    Chomping chickens chased other chickens.

  • There was a cabin that was brown and I could see vintage stuff inside.

    I hear crickets oinks, and birds chirp also baas and moos.

    I can smell peppa pigs poop hay.

    I feel fluffy furry sheep.

    The sheep was as white as a cloud.

    The hay tickles like pine needles.

  • I saw a sharp, old, arrowhead.

    I heard birds chirping and it was high pitched.

    I smelled smoke from a bow drill.

    I felt the soft dear skin.

    The hut was as sandy as the beach.

    The seeds sounded so shaky

  • The red and gold snake was big and long.

    The birds were chirping far away and close,

    then the wood was cracking when I was walking.

    The burning wood from the fire smelled like smoke.

    The hut was scratchy and the leaves were hard,

    crunchy, and bumpy.

    The snake was as soft as a pillow.

    The soft and sneaky snake scared students.

  • Noise, hot day

    Scales of a snake like a squishy toy

    Fur of a bear, bear, bunny nature, soft like a pillow

    Burned trees, Animals homes

    Butterflies lite pink flowers

    Wood, chicken, black pigs.

  • I can see the sheep are fuzzy and white.

    I heard a loud moo!

    I smelt cows poop all over.

    I felt some white fuzz.

    The pigs were as black as night time.

    The lizard winked at me.

  • I saw a mini axe made out of sticks and rocks.

    I heard squeaks from the bow drill.

    I smelled smoke from the bow drill.

    I felt warm grass under my hands.

    The hut was dark like the night.

    The spear spirals to it can catch the rabbit.

    The end

  • I can see pine trees. Its trunk was brown, it had pine needles. There were green.

    I heard the birds sing sweetly and tweet nicely.

    I smelled pine needles it smelled like christmas trees.

    I feel pine needles it was tickly.

    The lizard was brown as the tree trunk.

    The butterfly dance in the sky.

 

Hidden Oak Elementary

  • A lovely trip

    I heard some old music

    And woodpecker’s pecking

    Leaves were crunching

    Oh what a beautiful trip!

  • I went to a farm. And it had a lot of animals like a cow mooing, a sheep saying baa, and a pig saying oink, oink.

    And it smelt like old hay, and fresh hay to feed the cows with.

    I also felt cold wind on my body, and sheeps fur as soft as a pillow.

    I also went on a nature walk. I heard the little crickets chirping.

    And the last place we went to was the Timucua Hut.

    I heard arows getting thrown in the ground and leaves getting crumbled.

    I smelled wood, smoke and old plants.

  • Touching a snake

    Seeing cool stuff

    Feeding lambs

    With them licking my hand

    Hearing birds sing a song

    Going on a walk

    In the nature park

    Seeing green grass

    That is actually pine trees

    Seeing the old time stuff

    Walking around

    The chickens

    Singing loudly

    Seeing cows to

    I smell smoke

    Watching a fire start

    Hearing all the stories

    Playing a game

    That’s fun

    I will come again

    Oh nature park

    So fun

    So bright

    I loved being here

    Oh nature park

    I hope soon

    I will see u again

  • I heard music it was just like my grandpa playing on his guitar

    And some cows mooing it sounded a little bit like my dad snoring

    and I heard sheep to. I smelled hay it smelled weird, and i smelled some corn.

    And i felt some cows they felt smooth and some sheep they felt like a bed.

    And i see some an old school and animals and sheep. and i hear people and airplanes and leafs

    crunching. smoke and animals i felt trees and a snake.

    I hear leafs and friction and marakas.

    I smell animal fur and huts. a hut a stone knife, bear fur and deer fur and rabbit fur.

    I see animal skine and spers, arows, wepons.

  • The pine needles were

    as sharp as a sword

    on top of the tree.

    it was like from bottom to top.

    The nature

    The nature is as quiet as a mouse.

    The dirt was as soft as a cloud.

  • The leaves crunch as a chip

    The sheep baaa in the wind

    The grass whispered in the air

    The trees is so tall like a giraffe

    Bird beak like a eagle

    Snake skin smooth as butter

    Animals fur soft as a baby cow

  • The cows moo the birds chirp

    The leaves fall the trees grow

    It was like a rainbow

    The man on a porch sung a song

    And we all sang along

    I learned a new Game called chucky

    It was fun and very funny

    We all went in a school

    yes it was tiny

    But the history was mighty

    Yes we saw some burnt wood

    But it helps the environment

    at least that’s what i understood

    I got to pet a snake

    yes it was scary but it was not hairy

    At the end I said goodbye

    Yes it was hard but I had a great time

  • The wool on the sheep was as soft as a blanket

    The cows spots were very dark when I saw it

    The sound of the banjo was as pretty as a plant

    The snake felt really scaly

    The smoke smelt like a bbq it smelt so good.

    It was warm when I touched it. I loved the experience.

  • Trees had less leaves

    Trees glared as they shimmer above the clouds.

    They were so tall I couldn’t see the tippy top.

    the house of horror

    In the house all the skulls were creepy as a ghost.

    The snake made shivers down my spine

    All the stuffed animals made me scared.

    Fungi fields

    Alot of tree logs on the ground probably termites feast.

    On the logs there are little poop pellets.

    The trees were burnt as a piece of charcoal. i saw loads of pollen

    Farm frey

    The sheep’s tongues felt like slime with goopy charms.

    The cow’s moo was deeper than a hold in the ground.

    The little chicken was as cute as a panda.

    As the cow atem my hay the other cow hit Eiden with his hay. It was funny.

    The cow pooped in front of my why: I

    The pine hut

    Holding the bear, bunny and racoon skin is horror

    It makes me think of how they killed them spear, dagger, knife

    In the hut it was really dark and I just swooped like pelican. in and out

    I liked holding the objects THAT AREN’T ANIMAL SKIN!

    spearing

    Really fun. I wish I could do it again.

    It was like throwing sticks but FUNNER.

    Sadly i didn’t win but at least it was F U N

    High sky

    lots of planes and jets in the sky.

    At the end i went home

  • You walk through forest

    The trees wave hi

    Wiregrass dancing in the wind like a ballerina

    And you feel leaves crunching under your feet

    For some reason when you go inside a native Americans hut

    And you take a breath

    You smell the grass and you feel like a native American

    And see the farm the cows there the color of carmel

    The sheeps bah sound like music

    And at the end of the day tho pretty

    It was cold to

  • The Farm is as crazy as a mess.

    The cow is as brown as pine cones.

    The sheep is as noisy as a megaphone.

  • The Timucua Hut, the wind, as cold as a frigid day. The Farm, as sacred as gold, The Nature Walk, as peaceful as meditating, and the grass is dancing by the air

  • The pigs tusks are as long as a building.

    The bird was as red as a apple.

    The hut was as scary as a spider.

    The sheep are as fluffy as a puffball.

    The cows looks like a plushy.
