Eighth grader Diana Lindstrom devised a collection of haikus that celebrate winter, spring, and autumn. We hope these words transport you to your favorite season.
WINTER
"Snow"
Snowflakes falling down
It’s like a marshmallow world
White and beautiful
"Weather"
Temperature drops
Cold weather is around us
Winter season starts
"Coats"
Warm fuzzy jackets
Alongside with hats and gloves
Time to dust them off
"Skiing"
Putting on your boots
Gliding down the mountaintop
Taking the chairlift
"Hot Chocolate"
Nice and warm for you
Warm and cozy beverage
Such a tasty drink
autumn
"Leaves"
One by one, falling
A detachment of nature
Colorful and crisp
"Pumpkins"
A symbol of fall
A tasty flavor of pie
It brings joy to all
"Transitioning to Fall"
Summer leaves the air
Goodbye sunscreen and iced tea
Sweaters are back on
"Pastries"
At a bakery
The smell of warm apple pie
Melts right in your mouth
"Halloween"
Many costumes on
Trick or treaters stopping by
Many tasty treats
SPRING
"Flowers"
Growing on the trees
Looking very delicate
Embodies the soul
"Rain"
A symbol of spring
Drops falling down my window
Pitter-pattering
"Leaves"
Tree branches filling
We have come to meet again
Nature reunites
"Bees"
Buzzing through the air
Attaching onto flowers
Taking the nectar
"Weather"
Weather gets warmer
Farewell to our winter coats
Ready for picnics
