  1. Birhtdays
    Today is the day!
    The sun is out and I can play!
    Today is the day!
    And I am amazed,
    That even though it's tough
    You can never get enough
    Of the day to play.
    It is your birthday!

  3. I think #15's poem was very good. You could see what they thought of their topic. It was interesting poem, that was very easy to understand and I think had good word choice. I also liked the different kinds of puncuation. Nice work #15!! :)

    #13 :) :)

  5. ♫ Music In Nature ♫

    I sit by the river,
    listening to the music in nature,
    the wind blowing,
    the birds chirping,
    and the water flowing
    Music in nature

    #23 ♫

  6. Wet cold nose on mine
    Soft, warm, and slobbery tounge on my cheek
    Soft furry fur feels so soft on my skin
    Cute as a button
    This is my dog Tootsie.

  8. Friendship

    Friends are there to the end
    happy and friendly, always giving
    You can always depend on your mates
    They will be oh so great
    when they cry you will help 'em by your side,
    they will be there, joyful or sad,
    Friends are wonderful, fun, and RAD!

  12. I liked reading # 23s because it was very peaceful and calm to read.
    It made me think of the ocean waves and the soft harp playing, the things I enjoy to listen when I am peaceful.
    Great job!

  13. I really enjoyed #23's poem. I think it was really calming, and it made me think of the things that I liked to do as I relax. I also thought that their poem was different than the others. The only question is: where to you get the awsome inspiration? Well done!

  16. Sadness

    Don't have much friends,
    Everyone dumps me,
    because I am ugly,
    Except some,
    They don't get to know me,
    At recess they play except me watching them play while I sit on bench.

  17. I liked number #16 because it is true that you should help your friend and they should to. No matter there happy or sad. #16 also had good word choice (Rad).

  18. Daer #13,
    In your response to my poem you asked me how I got the insripation. I got the idea when I was outside on my hammock. All I could hear was the birds singing their lovely songs and the noise of the trees blowing in the wind. When I heard we had to write a poem, I thought of that and turned it into a poem.

  19. #23 meant to say DEAR #13, not daer.

  20. The fire is sparkling bright
    Sparks, popping in the night
    Then, the water puts it out
    But, it then flames from the drought
    Flames once more
    On the dry, crisp floor

  28. Spring

    Spring, it's my favorite time of year,
    Birds chirping,
    Flowers blooming,
    Color everywhere you look,
    Raindrops falling,
    Sun shining,
    Spring, it's my favorite time of year.

  30. There once was a man from peru.
    He dreamed about a dog.
    He woke up and found his dog was on the side of his bed.
    The dog was black and furry with big brown eyes.

  35. My Dog
    (Inspired by Razor/my dog)


    My dog is big and hairy
    He is not at all scary

    He likes to eat and play
    He could fetch a ball all day

    He is always very happy and glad
    He is the best friend I've ever had

    My dog Razor

  45. The Boredom

    How can this obstacle overcome me?
    Am i alive, am I free?
    This is such a hard task, the boredom
    How can we, the blacks, not be respected?
    After all, it is us that build this town
    they are saying go go go
    when i reply, no no no
    we have done the work within, why should they, be the ones who win?
    unfairness may be, I am not going to cry
    because I know god will help me, by and by

  48. The Flicker of Hope #16
    The flicker of hope,
    is it sorrow, or is it vanity?
    is it faith, or is it eternity?
    it is indescribable, mysterious, the glow inside,
    why would i care, I have lied.
    is this true, the way it should be?
    my my my, things have gone by.
    where is thy flicker
    the flicker of hope?
    all of it has gone,
    the flicker of hope
    changed again, again and again
    like me, soaring in the sky
    I want to go go go, and sucessfully fly.
    the flicker of hope, don't let it go,
    it won't change a thing, except the goodness
    where art thou flicker of hope?
    the wonderful and great,
    Flicker of Hope
