Rainstorm by James

Did you ever see a rainstorm?
It is a kind of water that comes down from the sky.
It will be cold outside.
Drip,drop,drip, drop in the sky.
Thunder crashing like a car.

Rainstorm

"Did you ever see a rainstorm?"


With  its very dark sky.


With sparkly shiney  raindrops from way up high.


Thunder going  through the air.


Umbrellas put up everywhere.


Lots and  lots of  lightening it  is pretty frightening.

Rainstorm

"Did you ever see a rainstorm?"
On a rainy day, the water whips
and cracks on my windowsill.
It slashes and howls at trees.
Bashing and slashing eveywhere!
The dark foggy sky gets brightened
by striking lightning .
Rain is awesome!

by Madeleine


Rain storm

''Did you ever see a rain storm''
Crashing down the rain
Lighting striking down with pain
You hear thunder going boom!
As you gaze at the giant moon
Your dog barks  because its dark
All the puddles getting in a muddle

I love the  rain

''RAINSTORM?''

 "Did you ever see a rainstorm?"
Splishing splashing rain dropping down on me,
Thunder sizzling through the sky
Umbrellas crowding me.
People drinking hot milo,
And sitting by the fire.
The puddles are getting bigger
Soon they're over flowing,
I'm looking through the window...
Its getting cold outside.

RAIN STORMS

Did you ever see a rainstorm.?
Rain drops smashing against the windows.
Leaving sparkle marks on the windows.
Hail storms.
Kids splashing in puddles.
Power going off
Sound of lightning screeching.
Wind howling.

Rainstorm

''Did you ever see a rainstorm?''
Dripping dropping.
Rain splashing and smashing on roof tops.
Kids jumping in puddles, making a big splash, in the dark.
Thunder and lightning,making loud sounds.
In the streets.

Rainstorm

''Did you ever see a rainstorm ?''
I have
I fact im watching one right now.
Sparkling,splashing,crashing .
Heaps of puddles everwhere .
No time to spare.
I run outside and crash into a puddle

James and the gaint peach

They saw land. Every one was so happy and Centipede jumped down inside and started runing all over the place. Then he came back up and had forgot he was still on the peach and he ran off the side of the peach. And that was the end of him. ''Oh well '' said the Earthworm '' it's good to get rid of him''. Then a big plane came rushing past and broke all the strings the seagulls were tied too.Then down they went all the way down to land.''I think Centipede is more lucky than us''!said Silk-worm.

They could see the Empire state building. And from James's it looked like they were going to land right on top of the spike on the building .Which looked like the worlds biggest needle. And then SHING! the peach went right through the spike on the building. And now it looked like a round piece of chicken on a stick. And in about ten seconds there was a big crowd around the building.Peopole were shouting crazy things like ''it's a flying saucer from out of space!'' And then half an hour later some one said ''it's a a giant peach''! And by that time Firemen and police had showed up. They managed to get the peach down. Then they had a parade. Kids came rushing out of the crowd and asked James ''can we have some of your peach''?They said and of course James said ''sure have all you want''.
