Each poem was written by a different student:
Birds are singing songs
Quietly waiting for birds
Birds came down – chap – chap
A peaceful prairie
Snow birds dancing in the sky
Trees bare of Winter
Leaves fall on the ground
Turkeys walk around the park
They run away
Arboretum’s land
So calming in the cold breeze
Such cool things to do
Fresh air in the sky
Other trees from different countries
Early fresh air
Animals hibernate
While their tracks are left behind
They are big and small
Birds sang a sad song
Wasp nest cold white on a tree
Beautiful nice calm
A snowy woods
As a cold wind blows snow
To peoples faces
The Arboretum
Looking for tracks in the snow
Then snow starts falling
On a winter day
In the Arboretum
Kids putting photos on the web
Early day fresh air
Seeing beautiful clouds
Sparkling snow smiles
Snow day cold and white
In the cold breeze snow came down
Like a bird singing songs
Following strange tracks
Turkeys finding food to eat
Tracks are on the snow
One nice winter day
Different trees different countries
People play around
Many trees of old
Prairie full of snow and sleet
Many things were learned
Small headed brown turkeys
Big tall long deer with big feet
Tall long red thorns
Big feet turkey tracks
Brown head long legs big arms
Big circular eyes
Snow drifts through the air
Shelter a few feet away
As sun breaks the clouds
Dirty rabbit tracks
Deer prints circle shape cut
Trees with turkeys tracks
Snowy hills abound
Cold crisp freezing breezes
Many snowy hills
