Limerick Poem #2


There once was a disgusting dog
He liked to drink my white eggnog

He used to eat bones
But now he likes phones

Oddly, this dog writes on a blog

Limerick Poem #1


There once was an unpleasant cat 
I don't like her because she's fat

She loved to eat mice
But I only like rice 

One time she brought me a black rat

Now & Then Poem


My Life
I used to be 12
But now I'm 13

I used to play soccer
But now I run track

I used to think math was hard
But now I think math is easy

I used to like waking up early
But now I love sleeping in

I used to play with Barbies
But now I hang out with my friends

I used to dislike tomato sauce 
But now I love it

I used to believe in Santa 
But now I know that he isn't real

Diamante Poem #2


Tennis
Hot, sweaty
Serving, running, hitting
Courts, nets, batons, cleats
Sprinting, jogging, hurdling 
Fast, steady
Track
