Lewiston, Maine
Poem written by third grade students 2001

 Lovely, lively, little city
Sitting on the Androscoggin
Busy with cars, jobs, families,
Wind chimes make music for people to dance do
Five fires in my neighborhood frightens me
Nice neighbors bring out my gift of gab
Cars go fast, looks like some are from Mars
Trucks zoom by my house
Buildings are not very tall
Birds sing as I get up each morning
Up comes the moon, up come the sun
Houses white as snow
Lewiston is bright and light and dreamy all night
As wonderful as all its people

 

Lincoln Street
By
Brittany

My city is Lewiston
Car going fast
Winds in your hair
People on the sidewalk
Babies being born every day
Look at a dandelion
Look at the rainbow
Look at the different color houses

Christine

Up the moon goes
Up comes the sun?
I went to the store to get
something
It was night
So I went home
To get some nighty night
I got into my bedclothes
Then said "Good night
Sleep tight!"

 

Stores & Houses
by
Christopher

Roll up the sun,
Put up the moon,
When it's dark the sores close
When it's sunny,
The house unlock in and about Lewiston
 

Lewiston

Dustin

It's bright and light
Dreamy all night
Down in town you can play
All day
But at night a lot of people like to go
With a river near, a waterfall, and ponds
It is fun
Play all day and night!

  

Lewiston

Glenn

In Lewiston there are a lot of cars
It looks like some are from Mars
My house is peach
like the beach
I have a big field
My garage door has s shield
A lock
A flock of geese tried to get in
It would be cool to see a geese
Having a feast.

  

My Neighborhood
by
Jacob

My place is a nice place to be
To watch the squirells flee
I have a very nice neighbor
Who gives me the gift of gab
McDonald's is just down the street
I might be able to walk down
with bare feet

 

Lewiston

Jake

The wind blows
In December it snows
There is a lot of lakes
Some people don't like to bake cakes
The chimes play music,
People dance to it
Some people are poor
Some people are rich
And lots of kids like to pitch

  

Lewiston's Church
by
Jeffrey

In the church
where the teachers teach
And the small children learn about God
When the preacher comes
Teh children think of God
They think of God in there sleep
They think of God in School
They think of God at Home
They think of God everywhere
Everywhere they go
They think of God
The children think of God
They believe in God
They love God
They know that God love them too.

September11, 2001
by
Kelsey

Since September 11, 2001
There have been a lot of bad
things happening in my neighborhood
Fires, Fires, Fires
I am so sick of all the fires
During the night
But I love my home.

  

Lewiston
by
Kyle

In the morning
When I get up
I listen to the birds sing
Go downstairs
Watch my bunny scatter
Around in his cage
I get Dressed
Eat breakfast
Get ready for school
My life in Lewiston
Like your life in your home town.

 

Lewiston
by
Naomi

The cars go fast
Past my house
Through my neighborhood
I hear big cars and trucks
Zoom by my house
When I am getting dressed in the morning
It's bright and light
When I go outside to for the bus.

   

Prospect Avenue
by
Phillip

Prospect Ave such a quiet place
About as quiet as a shoe lace
My house is as white as snow
It's really easy to show
My doeg Yogi is blacker than night
Not a knight on a horse
That's my street.

  

Lewiston
by
Samantha

My city is Lewisto
My favorite place is the Auburn Mall
My favorite store is Claire's
My favorite thing about Claire's is all the neat stuff.

 

Lewiston
by
Teila

Up the moon goes
Up comes the sun
I went to the store to get some
But I just thought of something
It was night so I went home
to get some nighty-night
I got into my bedclothes
Then I said
"Good Night, Sleep Tight"
