Day at the Beach
Onto the sand our toes burned with each step
Under umbrellas people dozed off from the heat
Beside us people ate
Along the shore people ran
Behind me were three giggling friends
Around the corner we waved away seagulls
Above us was the bright sun
Across were the crashing waves
Past us were little kids digging
Near were friends laughing
About to faint from the heat we headed to the shore
We swam.

Claire’s Poem
Across the atlantic ocean by ferry
Near the island of Nantucket
With amazing beaches and fun
From being with family to friends
As the waves crash onto the shore
Into the ocean we go
Despite the fact it was freezing
Following along with bike rides
Into nantucket town at night
For the famous Juice Bar ice cream
But you can’t forget the night time fun and yachts
As the month comes to an end of fun
Aboard the ferry back to Connecticut
Goodbye Nantucket

Amelia W.’s Prepositional Phrase Poem
Snorkeling In Aruba
Near a shipwreck down below
Following the current that guided
Underneath the hot, hot sun
Without a care in the world
Within the Caribbean Sea
Off the side of “One Happy Island”
Spotting lots of fish and coral
Opposite of Venezuela
Above, the deep below
Before eating amazing Aruban food
We snorkeled
