I Left My Coat in a Tree

I left my coat Hanging on a tree. A few days later What do I see? A small bird nest In my small coat hood. In that nest were eggs, And I thought that was good. A few days later What do I see? Three or four hatchlings In my coat in the tree. A couple of days later A storm came along. I found my coat on the ground And the hatchlings were gone. I left my coat Hanging on a tree. I hope the chicks flew away And are happy and free.

Yesterday, my family and I drove to Burkes Beach in Hilton Head, South Carolina. While we were walking over the bridge leading to the beach, we saw three beautiful kites in the sky and a school of fish in the river.

At the beach, there were little fish swimming in the waves that lapped the shore, little clams burrowing into the sand, and pelicans and other birds diving into the water as they tried to catch fish.

As I was wading in the ocean, I found a piece of seaweed. My sister decided to keep it.

I also saw what I first thought might have been a shark tooth. But upon grabbing it out of the water I found it was a shell. I was hoping to find a rare seashell or something else interesting, like a shark’s tooth. Though I didn’t find anything like that, I did collect a few nice seashells and a pebble.
