Sleepy Poems @ Darwin

This week we read Li Po’s “Quiet Night Thoughts,” a great poem for setting a scene and sharing one’s quiet thoughts. Enjoy!

yo miro estrellas en mi cuarto.
yo miro perritos en mi cuarto.
yo miro la luna en mi cuarto.
yo miro coalas en mi cuarto.

I look at stars in my room
I look at puppies in my room
I look at the moon in my room
I look at koalas in my room

Stanza
Evelyn E.

I see my window
I see my TV
I see my teddy bear
I see my mother

I think about dogs
I think about cats
I think about puppies

 

 

Yo Veo
Fatima C.

yo veo en mi cama maestros
yo veo en mi cama mi papá
yo veo en mi cama mi mamá
yo veo en mi cama mi perro
yo veo en mi cama mi hermana

Yo Veo
Fatima C.

I see my teachers in my bed
I see my dad is my bed
I see my mom in my bed
I see my dog in my bed
I see my sister in my bed

What I see
at night is my TV and
my picture and
my dad’s picture.

I dream about
my dad and me.

 

 

Ninjago Land
Brandon S.

I see a big bright moon and
it seems like a
flake coming down
the air over the house

Dreaming balls over my
mom cooking dinner with
a smell of chicken

 

 

Through My Window at Night
Michael M.

Through my window I see many
things, I see things like
trees or the street, I see,
I see me on the window

I see a reflection, I see
me, I see you, I see
people like you, I see my
bed

Though I see many too,
so that night, on the next day,
the same thing happens
every night, though not all
the time, I can be the
night light too…
