Who Has Seen The Wind
                                                                              
AmazingAND                                                                         

Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you                                 
But when the wind is whistling,
The wind is passing through.


Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I:
But when the wind chimes chime out loud
The wind is passing by.                                                                                                                        

For the Mayor of Pleasanton - Mayor Thorne

 For Mayor Thorne of Pleasanton

 AmazingAND      

Pleasanton is our city
Pleasanton is a great community.
Take a look around
This is Pleasanton you have found.


Pleasanton is in California
A long and skinny state.
Nevada is its neighbor
It is a nice roommate.


I am so happy
That Mayor Thorne is here.
He is the Mayor of Pleasanton
So let us give a CHEER!!!

Chug, Chug, Chug!
By AmazingAND

            Chug, Chug, Chug, Chug
            Choo, Choo, Choo, Choo
            Train is starting,
             Destination,
             Coming for you.
             Getting faster,
             Train is speeding,
             Destination,
             Right over there,
             Train is growling,
             Wheels are screeching,
             Reached our station!

          
Stopping By A Forest And Seeing A Treehouse

by AmazingAND

Whose treehouse is this I think I know.
His house is in the village, though:
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his treehouse fill with eyes.
My little dog thinks it is a doghouse,
To stop, and sniff, and play,
Between the forest and the trees,
The smell of the woods linger on.
He gives the tree a single shake,
To collect the sweet and juicy fruits.
The only other sound is the chirping of the birds,
And every footstep on the dry leaves.
The treehouse is beautiful, cozy and nice,
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Long, Long, Ago

By AmazingAND

Long, long, ago,
                  There were not too many toys,
                  The children used to play together,
                  Play with the girls and boys.


                  Long, long, ago
                  Things costed very low.
                  Now we have cellphones,
                  Iphones and Ipads too.
                  Now it is about 200 years later,

                  And it is now me and you!

Heat

                                                        by AmazingAND


Sunny, sunny, very, very, hot.
Is it cold? Is it cold? Not cold not!

Hotty, clotty, blit blat-a-blotty,
Turning hot, clurning hot, glurning around.

Turning tan, turning tan,
Darker skin, Narker skin, skin is turning dark.

Sunscreen, whunscreen,
Put on some junscreen

Icey, whicey, lemonade,
For the parchy, starchy, throat


A Prairie Dog Pup is Born  
By AmazingAND

          A Prairie Dog pup is born!
                   It squeaks, and squeals, and yips.
                   It lives in a hole, a burrow or a dip.
                   The pup comes outside,
                   And mom takes it for a ride.
                   Then a wolf approaches,
                    Like a bunch of cockroaches,
                    Mom tells the pup to hide.
                    It is nighttime,
                    The pup is asleep.
                     Mom watches with a smile,
                     And gives a soft little peep”

                        

Something told the monarchs

By AmazingAND


Something told the monarchs,
It was time to go.
Though the fields were not yet covered in frost,
Something whispered “snow.”


All the snowy orchards,
Steamed with amber spice,
But each breeze made it cooler,
At remembered ice.


Something told the monarchs,
It was time to fly.
Summer sun was disappearing,
Winter in their cry

                                 Death Valley

                                                            by

                                          AmazingAND 


                                       Scorching, burning, arid and hot,
                                     
                                       Is there a bit of cold?

                                      Nope, nope and not.


                                      Death Valley is where you are,

                                      If you come at night,

                                     You will see some gleaming stars.


                                     Death Valley is sort of like Mars,

                                     Neither worse nor better,

                                     But if you take a look at Mars,

                                    Mars is so much redder.


                                     In Death Valley, the mornings are very hot.

                                     If you check if you are sweating,

                                    You probably are not.


                                    Watching the sunset,

                                     Is such a beautiful sight,

                                     Then you will know,

                                     That it is night.


                                     The nights are very cold,

                                     And very breezy,

                                     Just step outside,

                                    You will feel freezy.


                                    Death Valley is way below the sea,

                                    In Death Valley, you will smile happily.


                                    In Death Valley, there is a lot to see,

                                   So take my hand, we will explore, YOU and ME!!!

                            Dreams

                        by

                    AmazingAND       

                                                      
                                                       Flying on a unicorn, 
                                                       Riding in outer space.
                                                       Dreams can take you anywhere,
                                                       To any far away place.
                                                        
                                                       You can visit places in your PJs,
                                                       And swing dinosaurs by their tails.
                                                       Eat one hundred bowls of ice cream,
                                                       And take a trip to Wales.
              
                                                       Dreams can be happy,
                                                       And Dreams can be sad.
                                                       Sometimes they are lovely,
                                                       And sometimes they are mad.

                                                       Sometimes Dreams are scary,
                                                       And you tremble in your sleep.
                                                       And sometimes your Dreams are funny,
                                                       And you can hear chicks cheep.

                                                       Dreams are there to help you,
                                                       So you can fall asleep.
                                                       You can have an amazing time,
                                                       Until you hear your alarm BEEP!!!
