Seagull Felts with Felt Board Poem

Inspiration comes in many variations. We have recently moved to an apartment near the ocean. The building across from us has a rooftop made with cement and gravel, and baby seagulls hatched a few weeks ago. We have been watching the seagulls through binoculars. It is very interesting to see how speckled they are. The mother seagull calls out to the father seagull, or the other way round, with the loud, "caw, caw, caw, caw" throughout the day.

So I thought it would be fun to try and make a seagull felt and make a poem...

 

A Seagull Poem for the Felt Board

Five seagulls standing(sitting) on the sand

Into the sky, one bird soar

And now there are only four

Four seagulls standing on the sand

One flew to a nearby tree

And now there are only three

Three seagulls standing on the sand

One flew to the sky so blue

And now there are only two

Two seagulls standing on the sand

One left to go find some fun

And now there is only one

One seagull standing on the sand

Flew towards the sun

And now there are none
