I am probably getting carried away with spooky poems, but I know how excited you all are about Hallowe'en! Knowing that, I have collected "too many", so I am going ahead with this post and sharing them with you, because they are a lot of fun :) I hope you will like them. Jack Prelutsky writes so many great poems, of course we have to read a few! But we should post our own poems, too...some of you have already been inspired to do that! Remember: Even though most of the poems we have read so far rhyme, lots and lots of fabulous poems do not, so that will be something we will investigate, too...But for now, enjoy Jack Prelutsky's poems.
Haunted House
The Dragons Are Singing Tonight
Tonight is the night all the dragons
There's a house upon the hilltop
We will not go inside
For that is where the witches live,
Where ghosts and goblins hide.
Tonight they have their party,
All the lights are burning bright,
But oh we will not go inside
The haunted house tonight.
The demons there are whirling
And the spirits swirl about.
They sing their songs to Halloween.
"Come join the fun," they shout.
But we do not want to go there
So we run with all our might
And oh we will not go inside
The haunted house tonight.
We will not go inside
For that is where the witches live,
Where ghosts and goblins hide.
Tonight they have their party,
All the lights are burning bright,
But oh we will not go inside
The haunted house tonight.
The demons there are whirling
And the spirits swirl about.
They sing their songs to Halloween.
"Come join the fun," they shout.
But we do not want to go there
So we run with all our might
And oh we will not go inside
The haunted house tonight.
**What would this house look like? Would we be able to see the witches, goblins, ghosts and demons from outside? Would you go inside anyway? **
Hi ms.k i am summiting on google accounts now well I am goind to be posting on the poem Haunted House first why I like this poem is because it is about monsters like Witches and Goblins and ghosts and also because they live in the same house so I belive that is a really spooky house the house that is on the mountain tops.I think this house will look like a advanced hunted house with real sound effects from the monsters and gools.We might be able to see the ghosts,goblins,witches,and demons from outside if there are windows but evan if there is windows we still maybe can not see the (ghosts)because they are invisable.If it was me I would have went inside with the monster and party with them evan though they might be really scary which I think that their not going to be that scary after all.When they said come and join the fun I would have ran inside and partyed with the monsters mostly because I have never saw real monsters in real life and I definitly never partyed with monsters before.That will never happen because monsters are not real and will never be in my hope.Also thats why this story is ficional.Well thats all Ms.K I have to write I hope this improves my writing or at least my typing marks so well THE END!!!

I think that the poems are very scary and good for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteWhat I liked about the first poem was part of everything because I like pretty much everything inside the poem like the haunted house and the goblins and witches.On the second poem I like the poem because of the dragons and knights.I also like the part of the second poem that I think is funny because it says the the dragons sing.
ReplyDeleteWe liked the the poem with the dragons we liked it because they roar like lightening.We liked it also because it was cool when the dragons blew out fire.
ReplyDeletethis poem is good because it has a rhythm to it and and it has a spooky feeling to it when you read it and its very catchy.
ReplyDeletethe thing i like about the first poem is that it has a nice tone.But there's another thing i like about the first poem when they talk they about the haouse so thats what i like about that poem.Now to talk about the seconed poem the dragon one i like it alot because it talks about dragons and it explains how the dragons party.
ReplyDeleteI love all the poems you put in Ms Kutertan!!!!!!!!
