This week, poets at Poe Middle School in Ms. Agboola’s class wrote about foods they loved. Here’s what they created.
How to Eat Chicken
Eric S.
7th g.
Don’t get messy
Start eating up
Pick it up with your hands
and put it in your mouth
Crumbs on your shirt
Crumbs on the floor
if you make a mess
you won’t get anymore
Blueberry Blast
Savannah M.
6th g.
Blueberries.
I
love
Blueberries.
They’re small, round, juicy, and sweet.
If I could I’d eat them every day.
I like blueberries the most
in Blueberry pie.
I actually had a bowl of them
the other day
cold and fresh,
I could never say no to them.
Pineapple
Hayley B.
6th g.
Pineapples
I enjoy eating them
the fresh fruit tastes so good
every time I eat it
my mood brightens
pineapples
pineapples
pineapples
They’re so good
The yellow/green colors
eating it in my room
It’s flavorful
just right for me
I love these fruits
the fragrance
it smells just like fruit.
Oh Chicken
Dubem A.
6th grade
I love chicken so much.
I love chicken so much.
All that juice tastes so good
I love it so much it
makes me wanna sing
all day.
When I sing it reminds me
of the first day I had chicken.
How to eat ravoli
Amara B.
6th g.
If you’re sad,
take a bite,
anyday now.
All you need is a fork,
a mouth,
and an appetite
there are no
seeds,
skin,
or stems.
