It is a time to have fun.
You should love recess.

the morning dew lies on it.

It falls haevy and light.

Snow is very cool
All the kids play in the snow.
The winter is best.

The Oak Tree
I want an oak tree.
With beautiful insects on it
what a nice tree.

Leaves fall from the trees.
Leaves are different colors.
They are fun to throw.

I went out walking,
and saw a beautiful flower,
what a perfect walk.
