First Place:
Being Italian
By Adriana Uthoff
Pasta on Sundays!
My Nonno making wine in the cellar.
My Nonna making pizza in the kitchen.
My cousins running around crazy.
The yelling,
The laughing,
The hugging.
The stories about Ischia.
And by the way,
Did you get enough to eat?
Here’s some more anyway!
Ahh, being Italian,
It’s the best!
Second Place:
Yummy Pizza
By Paula Mazzarino
Roses are red,
Pizza is too.
I like Buono’s Pizza
For me and for you.
My mom likes lots of pizzas,
My dad does too.
But the pizza they like best is Buono’s,
Even if it’s blue.
My cat likes the pizza,
My dog loves the crust
And once they were fighting over Buono Pizza,
It really gave me a bust.
My family loves pizza,
Lots and lots,
But the pizza we like the best
Is Buono’s with lots of tops.
Third Place:
Pizza Rhymes
By Ryan Franco
Violets are blue
I really want to eat
Pizza with you.
Sugar is white,
Sugar is sweet,
I love the meat and the heat.
Pizza is good.
It’s fun to eat.
So is the cheese,
The cheese you eat.
It makes me go, "Oooh!"
It makes me go, "Yum!"
It makes me go crazy
When it burns my thumb!
