SCORES Girls
By Jacqueline of Roxhill Elementary

SCORES girls are smart
We never fight
We’re all different
But in our hearts we are the same
We never argue
We never complain
We’re all different
But in our hearts we are the same
SCORES girls are sweet
We are nice
We’re all different
But in our hearts we are the same
We are careful
We are clever
We’re all different
But in our hearts we are the same

Friday Poem of the Week!

Haiku (About A Haiku)

Syllables are five
The second line is seven
Then it’s five again
