BUCKLEY COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL                                          WIND

         I go to Buckley Country Day School.                 Look at the colorful leaves,
         And boy! do they have a lot of rules.               Watch them weave
         The sports teams are very good.                     In and out of a tree.
         And Mr. Blatchford's great with wood,               And the wind sounds like a symphony.
         Buckley's teachers are very nice,                   The wind brings the leaves in my yard,
         There are not bad rats or mice.                     And who needs all those leaves when
         Mr. O'Donoghue knows a lot about plants,            Raking them is so hard?
         Mr. Amara knows all about ants.
         Madam Zezulin is terrific in French                        Buffy Knell
         Oh no, Mr. Young, not the bench!                           Fifth Grade
         We learn a lot and still have fun
         But I'll be happy when we're all done.                  THANKSGIVING

               Brendan McGivney                       On Thanksgiving day Turkey is the treat.
               Grade 5                             There also are some other good things to eat.

                  VENICE                              The thought of Pilgrims fill our mind, on the
                                                   Mayflower America they find.
            I wish I could go to Venice
            And ride on the beautiful boats           Thanksgiving is when the colored leaves fall
            And swim in the lake.                  the trees are bare, but still stand tall.
            Maybe I'll look at the moat
            And eat their wonderful food-             On Thanksgiving day we thank the Lord for
            Pizza, pasta and linguine, too.        all the wonders he has done and a prayer is his reward.
            I bet I'd enjoy it more than you!

                  k TREES

               Trees are*all.
               Trees don't fall.
               In the winter the trees are white
               Because it snows in the night.

Having fun as usual!                                                                                        49
