 Content: • Poems from Plunkett Poems from Plunkett From Mrs. Bourdon’s third grade class at C.T. Plunkett Elementary School: Our world would be a better place if ... there was more health insurance and less homeless. People would be considerate of others, people would be honest and truthful -- Now that would be a nice place to live in! More children could go to school, more people could donate to Nicaragua. All people could have food and a nice home. There were no zoos. We stopped ruining the forest. Now that would be a good place to live on our Earth! The Really Haunted House Once there were two twins names Ian and Maxine. They had a dog names Sarah and a puppy named Ben. They went trick-or-treating. They went to a house that was really a haunted house. The puppy cut off the collar and ran off to the pet store. The rest of them went in the haunted house. There was a skeleton and it was alive. There was a ghost and it was chasing Ian. I am thankful for ... my family my house my life the care that my family gives me the school I learn from the sports I’m able to do my nice mom and dad the things I get I'm thankful for ... being born having good friends by my side having shelter and food having good parents always there for me having something to play with having my parents care about me having my parent’s love having my animals having my own wonderful, exciting life not having a hurting family Our world would be a better place if ... there was no more nuclear weaponry there was no more stealing there were no more wars there were cheaper prices The world would be a better place if ... people did not litter. forests were no cut down. kids didn’t watch R movies. everybody had money for what they needed. people didn’t let their cats out at night. all people had heat.

By Alanah McLear Our world would be a better place if ... people would not kill the animals on the Earth there were no robbers there was no litter people wouldn’t destroy the forests Our world would be a better place if ... there were no more needy people if some things cost less money if inconsiderate people didn’t litter if the animals from the zoo were free if there were no more bad people Our world would be a better place if ... there would be no penniless people there was no combat people wouldn't toss rubbish on the ground there were no more immense taxes everybody would care for wildlife if everybody had food in their homes if everybody had heat in their homes if everybody had lots of water Our world would be a better place if ... people did not litter everybody had food we had five hours of school if there was no more war there were stores that would help people that need food I am thankful for: my parents who take care of me food that helps me grow relatives who love me friends who make me happy police who get bad people firemen who put out fires hospitals that fix us home that shelters us pet who give us company brothers who can help us people that make the world schools that help us learn God who keeps us safe Mt. Greylock Ramble My Dad and I are going to the ramble on Mt. Greylock. We will run up and down Mt. Greylock. After we are done running up and down we will go back home. We will rest. Then my Dad and I will go bike riding. Then we are going home to go to bed. I am thankful for: God, food, water. We should be thankful for a lot of things. But if you try saying you’re thankful for everything then you should be thankful for God. God made everything that you see on the Earth. God had a very good son. His name was Jesus. He died for us once. So you should be thankful for everything even if you don’t like it you should always be thankful for everything. The Man Behind the Mask Once there were two men. They were the best of friends. One day there was a murder. One of the men witnessed it. He saw a man who was wearing a mask. He was a wanted man. So the man who saw the murder raced after him. He tried to catch him but the man disappeared into the woods. Legend has it the same woods the men ran into are haunted. So when the fight commenced again the wanted man won but he was badly injured and he died. One hundred years later both men came back to life. If I were you I would watch out because they roam the streets at night in your neighborhood. Our world would be a better place if ... we didn't have wars if people gave the homeless a home if everyone gave blood if every month people give money to the children’s hospital everyone adopted a dog or cat friends treat other friends like they would want to be treated everyone who needed help got it people who did good things for our country stayed safe  RETURN TO TOP |
