Poems of Gratitude by Upper Elementary 2
Upper Elementary 2 is feeling grateful this holiday season, but don’t take my word for it. Please enjoy these poems by our students:
“Gratitude”
by Avery
Gratitude is Mood 24 Golden.
Gratitude is purple.
Gratitude is a circle.
Gratitude is a flute.
Gratitude is the woods.
Gratitude is video games.
Gratitude is summer.
Gratitude is flowers.
Gratitude is soft.
Gratitude is cherry ice-cream.
Gratitude is cotton candy.
Gratitude is a cat.
Gratitude is pizza.
“Winter Gratitude”
by Christian
I’m thankful for
warm puppy fun time.
I’m thankful for
The white chocolate woods,
where Chewbacca roams.
He smells like lavender
and plays a soft saxophone tune.
Deep in the woods,
he owns an ice-cream shop
that is hexagonally- shaped
but no one ever goes because
arugula is the main flavor
“Love”
by Hazel
If gratitude were a sound, it would be
soothing, relaxing
Gratitude is
a sunset
If gratitude were a smell, it would be
Thanksgiving dinner
Gratitude is
A cuddly puppy
If gratitude were a food, it would be
All of my favorite meals
Gratitude is
A calm place in the forest with birds singing
If gratitude were an instrument, it would be
A harp
Gratitude is
A circle, a circle of life
If gratitude were a flavor of ice-cream, it would be
A mix of creamy vanilla and chocolate
Gratitude is
Soft, smooth
If gratitude grew in a garden, it would be
Full of lavender and pollen
Gratitude is
Fall
“Gratitude is...”
by anonymous UE student
If gratitude were an animal, it would be a loyal Golden Retriever.
Gratitude is as good as gold.
If gratitude were a smell, it would be Orange Vanilla.
If gratitude were a place in nature, it would be A Bliss Garden.
If gratitude were a food, it would be a Pumpkin Pie
Gratitude is as good as a Purple Tulip.
If gratitude were a texture, it would be a nice fluffy cat.
If gratitude would be a flavor of ice-cream, it would be Orange Creme Fruit Swirl.
If Gratitude is Spring.
If gratitude were a shape, it would be a pentagon.
If gratitude were an instrument, it would be a Koto.
“Gratitude”
by Noemi Polverari
Gratitude is the color orange.
Gratitude is the smell of lavender.
Gratitude is a cat.
Gratitude is a cookie.
Gratitude is a place in nature; it is the ocean.
Gratitude is strawberry ice cream.
Gratitude is the season of spring.
“Gratitude”
By Parker
If gratitude were a sound, it would be quiet
If gratitude were a color, it would be blue
If gratitude were a smell, it would be lavender
If gratitude were an animal, it would be a Siamese cat
If gratitude were a food, it would be ramen
If gratitude were a place in nature, it would be the forest
If gratitude were an instrument, it would be a gold trumpet
If gratitude were a shape, it would be circle
If gratitude were a flavor of ice cream, it would be vanilla
If gratitude were a texture, it would be smooth
If gratitude grew, it would be
Gratitude”
By Silas
If gratitude was a sound it would be happy music.
If gratitude was a color it would be yellow.
If gratitude was a smell it would be mash potatoes.
If gratitude was an animal it would be a turkey.
If gratitude was a food it would be Thanksgiving dinner.
If gratitude was a place in nature it would be the beach.
If gratitude was an instrument it would be a harp.
If gratitude was a shape it would be a heart.
If gratitude was a flavor of ice-cream it would be mint chip.
If gratitude was a texture it would be soft.
If gratitude grew in a garden it would be flowers.
If gratitude was a season it would be fall.
Thankful Dreams
By Caitlyn
Gratitude is a relaxing song
Gratitude is blue like the sky
Gratitude is the smell of red roses
Gratitude is a golden retriever
Gratitude is a Thanksgiving dinner
Gratitude is the rainforest with lots of animals
Gratitude is a graceful song on the piano
Gratitude is a heart for love
Gratitude is soft and smooth
Gratitude is a pink lily
Gratitude is spring and fall
Gratitude is family
Gratitude is love
Gratitude is kindness
“Gratitude”
by Caton
If gratitude were a sound, it would be birds
If gratitude were a color, it would be purple
If gratitude were a smell, it would be wood burning
If gratitude were an animal, it would be a fast cheetah
If gratitude were a food, it would be a juicy burger
If gratitude were a place in nature, it would be the rainforest
If gratitude were an instrument, it would be me yodeling
If gratitude were a shape, it would be a circle
If gratitude were a flavor of ice-cream, it would be cherry
If gratitude were a texture, it would be a smooth surface
If gratitude grew in a garden, it would be lavender
If gratitude were a season, it would be winter
“Your Gratitude”
By Adam
Give your gratitude to the chirping of birds in the morning.
Give your gratitude to our blue and green Earth.
Give your gratitude to the smell of leftover stuffing from Thanksgiving.
Give your gratitude to our lush fields of tulips, roses, and dandelions Mother Nature provided us with.
Give your gratitude to the relaxing sound of a bamboo flute
Give your gratitude to the crashing of waves against the beach.
Give your gratitude to the taste of a fresh apple you just picked from a tree.
Last of all, give your gratitude to your family and friends that are there for you when they need you the most.
