The Beach and the Cloudy Day

By: 

Zia

Allybocus

My poem is about the weather and the beach and how it makes you feel. Reading this poem makes me feel happy, it reminds me of sunny holidays abroad. I hope the poem puts a smile on the one reading it too!

Come to the beach were the sea is blue
Little white waves come running at you

A wave comes splashing over your toes
You just stand still
Away it goes
Will build a castle down by the sea
Look for shells if you’ll come with me.

I see clouds
They look so puffy
Big and Little
Light and fluffy
Clouds block the sun
They bring the shade
Look really closely

See what pictures are made

I really don’t mind a cloudy day
But look out
RAIN COULD BE ON THE WAY
