Harvest Day

My daughter Gabriella wrote this poem for her school's Harvest Day performance. She read it outloud to the audience today.

Harvest Day
by Gabriella, 7 years old

Harvest time to share
Harvest food for you and me.
Animals munching food,
It’s harvest time.
Harvest food for you and me.
Farmers collecting veg,
Apples, green or red,
Harvest food for you and me.
Oranges, juicy and sweet,
Apples, falling from the trees,
Harvest food for you and me.
Watermelons, big and heavy,
Bananas, yellow and delicious,
Harvest food for you and me.
I love Harvest.
