Last fall, I facilitated a seashell investigation in my son's third grade class. Following the investigation, the students wrote Lunes about their shells. With the experience of writing lunes under their belts, they moved on a more complex form of poetry-haiku. Here are samples of their work. (These students chose to have their work published).
Sliding down the slide
Blowing around the sky
In the fall season
by Julia
In the fall leaves fall down
In the fall leaves fall down
The leaves flying on the air
In the air they fall.
by Danny
Trapped Leaf
On a windowsill,
Trapped in and old frozen pond,
When fall comes around.
by Cecelia
Leaves on the cold ground
leaves are different colors
In the midnight sky.
by Ella
Floating Leaves
In a tall tall tree
Floating in the blue blue sky
Under the hot sun.
by Hannah
Autumn winds shifting,
Autumn winds shifting,
Leaves are dancing to the ground
Falling from the trees.
by Beatrice
Running Leaf
On the forest floor
Running from the blowing wind
When I go to play.
by Haley
Swimming in the pond
Swimming in the pond
during a windy autumn
Floating in the air.
by Mason
Leaves get raked in piles.
I see this going on for
I see this going on for
miles and miles and piles.
by Dante
Mister Leaf on a
tree, come down and dance with me
near the radio.
by Jameson
Jumping Leaf
On the grass skipping
Blowing over a black fence
in a blowing breeze.

If you try your hand at haiku, why not share it here? I hope you'll also leave a comment for these talented poets.
