       The sixth graders took part in a creative writing contest. The contest was sponsored by the Parks and Rec. Department. Mrs. Hardesty entered us in this contest. The sixth graders had to write a Halloween poem. There were seven winners. There were three honorable mentions. People who received honorable were Dylan I, Elizabeth B, and Rachel D. Although getting an honorable mention is great, sixth graders still got higher honors. There was one third place winner, one second place winner, one third place winner, and one grand prize winner. Our third place winner was Alex C. Our second place winner was Jake C. Our first place winner was Angela J. Our grand prize winner was Kristin H.  All of these contestants deserve congratulations for their hard work.  Here are Kristin H’s and Angela J’s poems.

 

Halloween

Halloween time is very frightful

But we get candy which is so delightful.

I like to get lots of candy,

If you have a bag it will be very handy.

There are ghosts and goblins and witches too,

I am a warewolf, what are you?

If you are a girl you could be a fairy,

If you are a boy you could be a gorilla that’s hairy.

I like to go trick-or-treating around my house,

To scare my friends I showed them a dead mouse.

I wait for Halloween all year long,

I always keep my candy, is that so wrong?

Halloween

Halloween time is very frightful

All the costumes are a sightful

Goblins, and ghosts, and witches galore,

None of the costumes are a bore

Some things are scary, like haunted houses

Inside there are spiders and little mouses

There is also trick-or –treating

But the best thing about is the eating

Going down into my tummy

All of the candy is very yummy
