Dragons

I glance down at the sand box
from the sky then from the ground

I JUMP........


Landing in the sand pit
I feel the grainy sand between my toes
My dragon feels the wet and squishy sand next to her large talons

I hop back to my dragon
the beast I call the swings
I sore and fly through the air
on my lovely dragon

I fly landing with a thud
I sprint back to the swings
Giggling like mad they could here us
across the street
Laughing singing jumping
just like my funny dragon

I am flying up and down again
through the air and the clouds
I feel the wind in my face
and the breeze through my hair

I will fly like this forever
in the rain, sun, and snow
I ride my dragon

On top of the WORLD

DRAGONS

We stare down

toward the bottomless pit .

We launch ourselves

Screaming.

His powerful wings create

a dazzling gust of

wind, blowing in my face.

We hover for a moment

before plunging down.

I hold on for my life

as we soar downwards.

Just before hitting the bottom he

rears up.

He flaps his wings furiously

for the journey back to the top only

to start again.

Dragon

We stare down at the city
From the clouds.

My dragon flies in circles
Waiting to take me for a trip.

I am on my dragon's back,
I feel the breeze on my face.

I tell him "GO DOWN!"
He starts to swing down towards the ground.

I scream!
It feels fun and scary.

My dragon flies closer and closer to the ground.
Our toes barley touch the grass
and he swoops back up.

We laugh and fly to the clouds again.

dragons by maayan

We stare down
towards the bottom
of the steep, slippery, black hill

I start sprinting down
Breathing heavily
Screaming at the top of my lungs
Our toes were skimming the rigid grass

At the bottom of the hill
we started chuckling and chuckling hysterically
We were on a roll we never stopped sprinting up and down the hill

By the end of the day we were exuasted
and we couldn't take one step without collapsing in a wet stinky pile
on the brown muddy earth

Dragons By Izzy

The dragons stare down at us

So high they fly

As I swing up and down

I scream as joy touches me

I feel like a dragon now

I love dragons

The way they breath fiery air

The way their bodies whip through the sky

I laugh as my swing carries me to the sky

I am a dragon now

Dragons

We gaze down

from the hill,

our eyes wide.

I feel the cold breeze

against my face

and inhale the

fresh mountain air.

The view was magnificent

up here, the massive

mountains on our right

and the great lake to our left.

Suddenly I see a group

of geese soaring

through the air,

I call out for the others.

We gain speed,

I felt the chilly wind against my hair

and we finally take off.

I screamed to the

top of my lungs

and flapped my arms.

We came dashing down

the hill at a incredible speed,

I felt the humid grass between my

toes as I raced towards the swings.

I looked up at the majestic geese hovering

above us, would we ever be able to fly with them? Salome

Charlie and I decided that we were going to be fierce dragons today. Charlie was the tallest in our 1^st grade class. I was the shortest. We got married under the old willow tree at the school playground during 1^st recess yesterday. We made a promise to go on adventures together, just like in the movies. Charlie had three freckles on each cheek. I love freckles, I have two on my nose. Of course, Charlie was going to be the huge green and black fire-spitting dragon, which left me to be the tiny, purple, fast flying one. We climbed on the rim of the golden sandbox looking down into the depth of the abyss. With our eyes as wide as saucers. Charlie gave a petrifying roar and tried to impress me by spitting out fire. His nose pitifully miss fired. Roaring with laughter we tumbled into the sand. We had found our adventure!

Shane’s First Draft Of “Dragons”


I gaze towards
the miniature holes
of the sand box
from an unthinkable height.

The skin on my hand almost burns
from the metal rings
the large sweat drops fall
down my face but I don’t stop
my journey.


I jump and it feels
like someone jumping on
one trampoline to another.

I skim the burning hot sand
and move to the
next monkey bar as an
incredible breeze hits me.

I fall into the blazing hot sand
and get up as fast as I can
I start to dash to the grass
I start to do high knees


I jump as far as I can
I hit the grass with a thud
my body starts to cool down instantlyits harder to be like a dragon then I thought

oren's dragon poem

We stare down.

To the deep bottom of the sandbox

from the steepest cliff in town.

We are almost at the bottom

Shrieking and screaming, at the top of our lungs. We feel something,

A gail of wind blows right at us, we are swept down instantly to the bottom.

We climb back up and start climbing down again.

We slide down the hole this time

as our feet touch the bottom

and boom! something went wrong.

Dragons

-By: Barbie

We stare down

To the bottom of the sandbox

From the highest most wonderful slide in the world

Buffy and I start down

Shrieking, yelling, screaming, at the top of our lungs

"Whoosh!" A gust of wind blows, we are swept down instantly

My toes in tiny Mary-Janes brush the cold earth

We start up again

We slide down

My dragon, Buffy swoops up

Carying me over the sandbox

Joy rushes over me

I am shrieking, yellling and screaming and then it happens again

The sandbox reappears

Glowing, although it is made out of brown rough unwanted pecies of rock

I scream a blood curdling scream, but I am full of joy

Buffy scoops me up and we fly up toward the sky

Laughing

Jacob's Dragons Paragraph

I sit upon my emerald dragon,

laughing and screaming as he soars through the sky.

He climbs higher into the sky

and then dives down.

I scream, happy and scared at the same time,

as the ground rushes up to meet us.

At the last second he pulls up.

I get off, dizzy and disoriented

and then collapse in the soft grass.

I was home.

"Fly" By Josha

We fell
Me and my Dragon
In a steep dive
Towards Earth

I screamed
With delight
Looking down
Over Dragon's Wing

My Dragon's scales
Sparkling
Like the Sun's
Rays of light

We touched down
On Earth
I was home

Rosie's dragon paragraph

I sat upon my pet dragon

he flew through the sky

swooping up and down

we went up

looking dow at the sandbox

then up through the fluffy clouds

and back down to feel the soft grass between my toes

we landed and I dismounted

I fell to the ground

and burst into hysteria

Rachel's Dragon paragraph

I stared down the fiery pit

full of dragons of all color's

from the sand box.

I stick my hand in to feel a dragon

It bites my hand

I scream.

Another kid comes up to me and says:

"You know it's not nice to scream at the sand box"

I tell him: "come look this hole is full of Dragons!"

We hold hands and jump into the pit to explore a whole new world.

Dragons

We stare down
to the endless bottom
from the sandbox.

I zoom down,
shrieking at the top of my lungs,
as our toes
brush the fresh, green, cold grass.

When we finally hit the ground
we burst with laughter
and we fly
back to the sandbox.
We are dragons,
on top of the world.

Dragons

I’m soaring in the sky the wind is crashing in my face. I see a beach the sand looks like a piece of art work. I land on the sand, my feet sink into the sand, the sand is warm like feeling a hot chocolate mug right after the hot chocolate was made. I start laughing for no reason and I keep laughing and laughing and laughing. Finally it was time to go home and I look around and soared up in to the air.

Hana's "dragons" paragraph

We stare down,

from the swings,

towards the gritty, cold sand, in the sandbox.

I jumped off the swings. Now on the floor.

Running across the fine, wet grass.

My narrow, tiny-toes brushing against ground.

I dash back to the swings.

Again, flying high, feeling the sun beaming on me.

With my dragon wings.

Landing back on the bottom.

Singing, dancing, laughing.

Then, we swing back to the sky.

Smelling the wondrous fresh air.

On top of the world.

Being a dragon.

Yaakov's " Dragons" Paragraph

We stared down

from the highest slide

towards the sandbox.

Our dragons so high

in the air.

All of a sudden,

we felt a brush

of cold air come towards

our faces.

We stared down

and then shot down

like a bolt of

lightning.

We all landed faces

first into the sandbox.

We all started to

burst out into laughter

as we all lay there.

Who knew children

could be so silly?

Leor's draft of "Dragons"

I stared down toward the sandbox from the top of my Dragon. Suddenly I felt a rush of cool air blowing hair around my face. As Dragon swooped downward toward the ground I screamed at the top of my lungs until my face got red. I felt my toes skim through the soft, lush grass as I flew upward holding tight onto the wings of Dragon. When I woke up in the meadow and recalled this dream I stood up, held out my arms and ran up the hill flapping my arms just like Dragon wings.

Dragons

We stare down to the bottom of the hill
From the sandbox, we stare

We start to run down
Tumble, slip, roll, we run
Scream, jump, fly, with joy

Toes skimming the ground
Hearts hammering
Arms pumping
Grass crunching

Bursts of laughter fill the air
Heavy breathing fills our heads
Screaming kids all around

We start back up
Up the great hill
Flapping our wings
Our dragon wings
