Goodbye, Summer!
Goodbye, people singing and dancing in the glimmer of the sun.
Goodbye, splashing water balloons getting squished and squealed.
Goodbye, picking shiny apples and eating the delicious apples.
Goodbye, the apple jelly that we picked from my tiny apple tree,
And the delicious blueberry ice cream.
Goodbye to the shining garden spot where I love to read a good book,
And to the bees buzzing as they make their delicious, yummy honey.
Goodbye to my family walking up and down the Woodstock Streets.
Goodbye, summer!
Hello, colorful fall!
I will see you another day, summer.

The Horse Pulling
I loved the horse pulling at Tunbridge Fair because of how fast they pulled the huge rock. Wow! It was very fantastic.
When we watched the horse pulling, it was awesome how many bricks they pulled. The drivers had a chain attached to pull the bricks. They dropped the chain really quickly, and the horses would jump forward. They pulled the bricks until they got to the gate. We all clapped for the horses.
I love the one with green reins because it was from Woodstock. It was very, very pretty. It was brown with white on its front hooves. I forget her name, but I love that horse.
Hope
I hope our class is full of good thinkers and that we will know everything we are supposed to know in second grade.
It’s Okay
It’s okay to sing!
It’s okay to be happy.
It’s okay to lose your earrings.
It’s okay to not paint your nails.
It’s okay to have a friend in your old school.
It’s okay to love flowers.
