Dear Stream,<br />

Every time I try to go swimming,<br />

you carry me away in your strong<br />

current. I can’t stand it anymore; by<br />

the time your long water ride ends,<br />

I’m pruned! Every single time I just<br />

get weaker and weaker. I mean I’m<br />

not getting any younger here. If you<br />

don’t slow down a bit, I’m going to<br />

have to move to that swamp next<br />

door and I know you wouldn’t want<br />

that. Who else would keep those<br />

pesky flies and spiders away? (Sorry<br />

Steve and Charlotte, but it’s true.)<br />

So PLEASE slow down!!! Even<br />

streams need to take a breather.<br />

Dying <strong>of</strong> exhaustion,<br />

Fishing Trip<br />

One day me and my Dad were going on a fishing trip. It was the first for me<br />

to go fishing. After a while I felt something nibble on my fishing pole and I<br />

finally caught a fish. So did my dad but I caught two fish and my dad caught<br />

only one. That is the story <strong>of</strong> my first time going fishing.<br />

Lewis River<br />

Leaves follow the river.<br />

Eggs are hiding in trees.<br />

Wet rocks are slippery.<br />

Insects buzz quickly over the river.<br />

Slimy algae is at the river bottom.<br />

Redwinged blackbirds make nests.<br />

Into the river, amphibians jump.<br />

Vines are on the other side <strong>of</strong> the river.<br />

Estuary is where the salmon swim to.<br />

Rocky creek has plants in it.<br />
