More Lemonade-style squeezed poetry!

Inspired the the fifth graders' poems, the 3rd graders tried their hands at creating poems like those in Bob Raczka's book, Lemonade and Other Poems Squeezed from a Single Word.

This is very challenging poetry to write! I think they are off to a great start:

One student chose porcupines and I got inspired to play:

Porcupines
          I
                s
              e
              e
                s
     r   up
     r      i   s
               e.
