Mõned näited 7.klassi õpilastelt

Snow
Once there was a man of snow
its carrot said "I know -
your name can be a carrotman,
but better still a snowman."
That's how we got a man of snow.

Ocean
Once there was an empty land
which didn't have any sand
Water said "I'll come by later"
But the land just couldn't wait there.
So the water gave a helping hand

***
There was a man who drank some water
he thought to himself "Now that's a shocker!"
He decided to drink that all the time,
thinking to himself "This is all mine!"
That thirsty ol'man who drank some water

***
There was a river
who had a killer
The river's name was Mississippi
and she was a hippie.
That was the great river.
