Fountain Valley

Spring is the king of all seasons. I can give you plenty of reasons.

The Earth looks like a bride dressed in colorful flowers. The sky, the bridegroom, dressed in black clouds, gives her light showers. Then appears a rainbow making a perfect arch.

Cold, gloomy winter has gone and it's the end of March. Peacocks spread their wings and dance for so long. Larks and hummingbirds hum their sweetest song. The hills and valleys are covered with green grass. Hungry cattle and cows have a huge blast. The lush gardens are buzzing with bees. The newborn chicks are beeping cheep-cheep in the trees. Everything looks clean, fresh and new. Spreading everywhere cheer, joy and hues.

Happiness

By Justin, fifth grade

Parkview School

El Monte

I can hear children laughing and screaming with joy.

This is the sound of happiness.

The smell of chicken and boiling soup.

This is the scent of happiness.

The taste of ice cream with a cherry on top.

This is the taste of happiness.

Playing tag with friends and running around.

This is the feeling of happiness.

Looking at kids playing in the yard.

This is the sight of happiness.

Talking about things with the world

Always brings me happiness.
