I Like It When It's
Mizzly
by Aileen Fisher
I like it when it's
mizzly
and just a little drizzly
so everything looks far away
and make- believe and
frizzly
.
I like it when it's foggy
and sounding very
froggy
.
I even like it when it rains
on streets and weepy windowpanes
and catkins in the poplar tree
and me.Slide3

Mrs. Mosher’s Paragraph
Camping.
I love camping. I like organizing the camping gear for an upcoming year. I like packing the car and making it all fit in. I love to flop down on the air mattress after it has been set. I love the taste of my food cooked outdoors. I like the glow and warmth of the fire, especially the tasty treats cooked over the fire. I love falling asleep to the sound of crickets, frogs, and other wildlife sounds (yes, even the buzzing of the mosquitos). I love the sound of soft rain falling on the tent just before dawn and the quiet moments before the campground comes to life. I like the feeling of relaxation, nowhere to be, nothing on the to do list!Slide6
Next stepTake words or sentences out of your paragraph that create strong images or feelings.
You can write these on small pieces of paper to help you “arrange” your poem. Slide7
