"Some Days I Am" by Ivan

Some days I am nice
Some days I like to eat rice
Some days I am catching mice
Some days I think twice
Some days I get advice
Some days I am wise
Some days I wear ties
Some days I am clockwise
Some days I kill fireflies
Some days I wear pants called Levis
Some days I eat fries

"Rocks" by Miss Finley's 2nd Grade Class

Rocks here, rocks there,
Rocks, rocks everywhere.
Sparkling rocks laughing so hard.
Pointy rocks falling from the hill.
Shiny rocks swimming in the sea.
Smooth rocks cheering so loud.
Rocks are in my backyard.
Rocks everywhere in the sea and in the sun.
Rocks in the store.
Rocks in the swimming pool
Rocks here, rocks there,
Rocks, rocks everywhere!
ROCKS, ROCKS, ROCKS!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rocks here, rocks there,
Rocks, rocks everywhere.
Cool rocks rolling.
Shiny rocks laughing.
Heavy rocks clapping.
Rough rocks shooting.
Rocks are formed by fire.
Rocks move by water.
Rocks are great!
Rocks are shiny.
Rocks here, rocks there,
Rocks, rocks everywhere!
ROCKS, ROCKS, ROCKS!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rocks here, rocks there,
Rocks, rocks everywhere.
Glittering rocks laughing.
Pointy rocks shouting.
Heavy rocks stomping.
Rough rocks kicking.
Rocks are bright and dark.
Rocks are heavy and light.
Rocks are soft and some are hard.
Rocks can be anywhere!
Rocks here, rocks there,
Rocks, rocks everywhere!
ROCKS, ROCKS, ROCKS!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Como decirte que te amo…" by Ana

Como decirte que te amo si no me estas escuchando
Como abrasarte si no te tengo a mi lado
Como besarte si no te estoy mirando
Como logro acerté entender que te amo!!!

"Cuando tenga mi propia familia" by Ana

Mi gran pregunta en la vida a sido, cuando podré tener yo mi propia familia?
Mis padre piensan que esa pregunta esta muy fuera de la línea que aun estoy muy chiquilla, pero no se an puesto a pensar que ese asido y será mi sueno de toda la vida.
Ellos saben que yo quiero estudiar y están de acuerdo con eso, saben que quiero llegar a ser mama y no saben como logra entenderlo pero yo se que algún día ellos lo logran entender que eso es normal en la vida.

"Mama" by Ana

Madre es aquella que carga a su hijo en su vientre por tantos meses
Madre es la que cuida de sus hijos todas las besesMadre es aquella que guía por el buen camino y aconseja a los hijos sin intereses. De todo cariño madre te digo que te mereces el mejor premio del mundo por que te lo mereces.

"Para mi padre" by Ana

Siempre as sido una persona responsable e incomparable
Siempre mantienes el equilibrio más no tu carácter
Tu as sido y ceras mi padre en la persona que me apoyo al caminar
Siempre te e admirado por tu forma de pensar, tu eres una persona muy intelectual y quiero que sepas que mi gran amor por ti nunca cambiara.

"Para mi madre de su única hija" by Ana

Madre mía eres en mi vida lo mejor
Nunca soñé poder tener la suerte que me toco
Si tan solo tú supieras que en mi vida tú eres lo mejor
Nunca más dudarías de mi gran amor.
Tú eres la persona que me inspira a seguir viviendo cada día,
Tú eres la persona que me aconseja a seguir en la vida y eres la persona
Más enorme que existe en mi vida.

"El Amor" by Sonia

Cuando te conocí
Medio miedo quererte
Y ahora que te quiero
Tengo miedo perderte

Yo me enamore de ti
Eso tenlo por seguro
Que solo te quiero a ti
Amor lindo y puro

Mi pasado es triste
Mi futuro no lo se
Pero mi presente es
Que te quiero y nunca te olvidare

Que triste se ve el cielo
Cuando esta nublado que
Que triste me siento yo cuando
No te tengo a mi lado

A un ángel le pregunte
Que cual era el peor
Castigo y el ángel me
Contesto amar y no
Ser correspondido

Quisiera ser una estrella
Quisiera ser un lucero
Para ver desde arriba
Al chico que más quiero

Mi novio me dio una foto
Mi mama me la rompió
Mi boca no dijo nada
Pero mi Corazón lloro

Del cielo callo una estrella
Con siete pocos dorados
Y en cada pico decía
Estamos enamorados

Si mi sangre fuera tinta
Y mi Corazón tintero con mi
Sangre te escribiría te quiero

Nacimos para vivir
Nacimos para soñar
Y nuestro destino
Es morir y amar

Los peces piden agua
Las mariposas libertad
Y yo que soy tu novia
Pido tu sinceridad

No me importa la edad
Mucho menos la altura
Después que hay amor
Lo demás que se vaya a la basura

Cuando te conocí un
Amigo te creí pero
Nunca pensé enamorarme de ti

"Amazing Tony Poems" by Tony

Tony's poems are such a phony
If I was him I'd have to be lonely

His poems are so great it's better than grapes
His poems are so great it looks like shapes

Tony's poems are so good
It's just like him to be in a good mood

If I could be him I would be better
Except all the words would be just one letter

"Things To Do Before I Die" by Tony

Things to do before I die
I would say bye to all my friends and family
I would make sure not to say hi
I would be brave and not cry

I would be strong and not lie
I would be smart and not fly
People will maybe say bye
I will have a good heart and always say hi

"If My Best Friend Took Drugs" by Tony

If my best friend took drugs
I'd tell him to stop
I'll tell him to stop or he will pop
I'll tell him to stop or he won't get hugs from girls

"Fear" by Tony

Fear is not being afraid of a bear
Fear is not being scared
Fear is to not shave
Fear is to not behave

"Learning Something New" by Tony

Learning something new is cool
Just like playing a game of pool
Learning something new doesn't require a tool
Nothing is cruel it's just a fool

Learning something new is excellent
It's so magnificent
Learning something new is important
Learning takes no movement

"Who Am I?" by Anabel

If I wasn't a person
Who would I want to be?
Maybe a little bee

I can't really tell who I am
Should I have another name in me?
Should my name be Lee?

I really don't understand
The thing I can be
I can be a rose
A rose they give to a person they love

"My Bad Day" by Anabel

Today I went to the store
The day is so beautiful
On the way to the store
My car stopped

I stayed with my car
Almost two hours
Nobody wanted to help
I was so angry

I knew I had a bad day
Then it started raining
And I said to myself
I'm never coming in my car

"Emotions" by Anabel

What are emotions for you?
Like being happy or sad
Like if you did something bad

With emotions you can fall in love
And fly like a dove
If there were no emotions
There would be no love

You would never be happy
Your face will always be yellow
But emotions are not like eating Jello

"Bullies Are..." by Ivan

Bullies are crazy
Bullies are cheesy
Bullies are baggy
Bullies are angry
Bullies are awful
Bullies are cocky
Bullies are dorky
Bullies are flighty
Bullies are freaky
Bullies are jerky
Bullies are naughty

"Orange" by Miss Cragun

If I were a color, then I'd be orange.

I'd radiate heat like a burner on a stove
And scorch your tongue with the bite of a pepper.

I'd mesmerize your eyes like a flickering flame
And hypnotize your thoughts with my crackle and pop.

I'd tickle your nose like a citric fruit
And make your hands sticky as you peel off my skin.

I'd inspire your spirit like a new morning sunrise
And calm your soul with peace in a dissipating sunset.

I'd leave you in a flash with the stealth of a tiger
And let your memory prey on the blur of my colors.

"Getting Hit by a Car!" by Gabi

If I was hit by a car on my way to school
My Mom will be so worried cuz I was thinking like a fool
Mom might be crying, but everything is cool
They're taking me to the hospital, but I think I'm almost dead
At the hospital they are using this weird tool
But you know that's their rule
After all it was worth getting hit by a car
Cuz that way I'm not going back to school

"If I Was A Car" by Elvia

If I was a car
I would hate my owner if he smoked and lit a cigar
People would look at me jealous cause I'm an expensive Jaguar car
But I wouldn't just be a Jaguar I'd be a street car
Going up and down the streets giving rides to my owner

If I was a car
I would always be at the gas station or else I'd be a flat car
I would watch myself from getting a scar
But if people mess with me on purpose it would mean they declared war
I would honk at them
I'd scratch their car, too

If I was a car
I'd be cleaner than any other car
But if my owner wouldn't clean me I'd wish he was in a jar
I wouldn't let him out until he'd say he'd clean me
I would be the handsomest car

"What It's Like to Be Me" by Tony

Being me is real fun
It's fun being me especially in the sun
Me myself is not a mess like you are
I live really far

I see ladies on my doorstep every day
When I see them I say "hey"
To be me you must be handsome
Oh yeah, did I mention this, I am very muscular

You get money being me
You don't get bothered being me
Just like the killer bee
I also get respect

"Hero" by Gabe

A hero should be like Iron Man so big and strong
A hero shouldn't be like Tony all small and long

"When I'm an Adult" by Gabe

When I’m an adult I can gamble
When I’m an adult I can drink
When I’m an adult I can drive
When I’m an adult I can wink

When I’m an adult I can watch bad movies
When I’m an adult I can date
When I’m an adult I can live alone
When I’m an adult I can be late

"If I Could Be a Famous Person" by Tony

If I could be a famous person I would be rich
I will ditch all the little cribs and just twitch
If I could be a famous person I will get all the hot chicks
We would chill and sit

"Watching TV is like..." by Tony

Watching TV is cool
It is not cruel like school.
Watching TV is like a hot chick
The chick in not sick.

Watching TV is like a game
And no it's not lame!
Watching TV is like a wolf cry
In fact maybe it's a lie.

"I Sing When No One is Looking" by Miss Frazier

In my room with the music blaring
In my car I'm always jamming

Some times when I'm sad
Other times when I'm glad

In my kitchen when I am cooking
In my bathroom when I am showering

Some times when I'm depressed
Other times when I'm blessed

In my gym when I am exercising
In my yard when I am playing

Some times when I'm slighted
Other times when I'm excited

In my room when I am writing
In my basement when I am cleaning

Some times when I'm lazy
Other times when I'm crazy

In my classroom when I am working
I sing when no one is looking

"If I Was Hit By A Car..." by Miss Frazier

If I was hit by a car on my way home from school
I would skid on the pavement
like a rock across water.

If the person who hit me did not care to stop
I would chase after them
Like the Road Runner on Looney Tunes (Meep, Meep).

If I was hit by a car on my way home from school
I would call my Mom and ask her for help
Like a good child would do.
If no one saw the accident
I would have to explain to the police what happened
Like a victim of crime.

If I was hit by a car on my way home from school
I would get to ride in a fast ambulance
Like the ones you see on TV.

If I was hurt really bad from the collison
I would have to stay in the hospital
Like a patient recovering from surgery.

If I was hit by a car on my way home from school
I would try to be strong
Like a rope bridge across a ravine.

"Fear" by Anabel

What would fear be like?
Like falling in love
And sing like a dove

Like not having family
And being by your own
Not having a brother or sister

Maybe not having any bones
Not feeling a thing
Maybe fear is like not having spring

"Bugs" by Marco

Bugs are cool
They go to school

They are very smart
But they like to fart
They have a small heart
But they always look at one start

Bugs also like to eat little girls
They have to have a pearl

"A Dream" by Marco

I like to play soccer
Kicking the ball is so fun
Scoring a goal
And people cheering for you
Getting exercise everyday
You get to be with your friends
When I grow up I want to play soccer

"Two Cultures" by Anabel

I just don't understand my life
Would it be hard
A life full of love
It's like a love card

Two cultures in my life
Two languages in me
Two different flags at the same time
It's like you are chased by a bee

Running from one country to another
Would it be fair
Having two cultures on me
I really need a lot of air

"I Love Cars" by Ivan

I love cars
They make me want to go to mars
I want the stars
My car has scars
My car is a jaguar
My car has a radar
I like the guitar

"School" by Elvia

School is like a tool
That can also be cruel
Some teachers teach awful
But not Ms. Cragun she is cheerful

School is always something new
Like in gym we play a game called horseshoe
School always has a new issue
Sometimes school can be boring and wish you'd get the flu

School can be fun if you like school
But you have to follow the rule
I sometimes think school is uncool
Everyday there's homework that's cruel

"Awakening" by Jacob

It's been too long, since I last remembered happiness,
but the joys that come with living are now reappearing...
Allowing my soul to swim out of this loneliness.
Terrors, I've created are not worth fearing.

Why worry about pains that are set in stone?
I've adjusted my thought to act more like liquid.

Positive feelings are running through this body.
A contagious illness that should have no anecdotes...
are cause and affects of a life, not faulty.
So, unleash your substance and untie these ropes.

Let your mind's conscious drift and roam,
while healthy vibrations are explosive, not timid.

Smiling is something that I thought I already knew,
but all that I had was false advertisement.
When I woke this morning my orah flew,
Emotions finally shinning through the cement.

Enjoying my days, Ill appreciate earth's tone,
It's rhythm and blues seem a lot less rigid.

"I am..." by Ms. George

I am curious and determined
I wonder how big the universe actually is
I hear fall leaves crunching under my feet
I see the world's wonders through the lens of my camera
I want to be well-respected and loved
I am curious and determined

I imagine a world resembling a Monet
I feel contentment as I sit in an over-stuffed chair
I touch the ever-growing stack of work on my desk
I worry that I am not making an impact
I cry when those I love are hurting
I am curious and determined

I understand the complexity of politics
I say everyone should receive an education
I dream of a white picket fence and an ideal family
I try to avoid roller-skating and laundry
I hope for a world of devoid of genocide
I am curious and determined

"Hatred" by Ms. George

Hatred is useless
It tasts like nauseating bitterness
It sounds like the blasts of gunfire
It smells like sweat and blood
It looks like an explosion
Hatred feels like hopelessness

"Clerihew Poem" by Ms. George

Mr. Ortiz
Lost his keys
He searched and looked
They were found in a nook

"Por que tiene que ser así" by Ana

No logro entender por que dudas de mi amor si en cada palabra y caricia que te doy, te lo demuestro con todo tu corazón. Mis sentimientos son puros, yo te abrí mi corazón, quiero que sepas que aunque eres mayor te has robado todo mi amor. Nunca había sentido algo igual, tu as cambiado mi forma de pensar, desde que te conocí nunca he dejado de pensar en ti. Tu has sido la persona que me entusiasmó, la que me alegro, pero lo mas importante la que me enamoro.

"Para ti" by Ana

Siempre pensé que la vida me había olvidado,
que ni siquiera se acordaba de mi,
cada camino que caminaba se quedaba olvido
en el pasado y nunca mas regresaba a mi.
Una tarde hermosa y soleada del mes de abril
salí a dar un paseo alrededor del jardín y te encontré a ti.
Desde ese día Alfonso me enamore de ti.

"Para mi querido hermano" by Ana

Coco es tu nombre de cariño, Coco se escucha mejor
Quiero que sepas que de todos los hermanos del mundo tú eres el mejor.
Nunca soñé poder ser tan afortunada con el hermano que me toco, siempre dude de mi suerte por que nunca le pose atención, ahora que me pongo a mirar, le doy gracias a dios por la enorme fortuna que me envió. Tu personalidad es única, tu inteligencia es enorme, tu guapura es grande y tu corazón esta lleno de amor. Hermano mió quiero que sepas que de todas las fortuna tu as sido la mejor. Quiero que sepas que pase lo que pase en nuestras vidas nunca te dejare ni te olvidare por que un amor de hermandad nunca se podrá olvidar.
Hermano quiero que sepas que te quiero de verdad…

"Attractive Perfume" by Elvia

I just invented an attractive perfume
No matter how ugly or how cute you are
You can still wear it
So try on ugly clothes and wear the perfume

Then get ready to be attracted to boys or girls
And if you still can't believe it
Try it on yourself
I've tried

That's why whenever you go to the dances
You see a whole crowd of boys
Then you'll know that I tried the attractive perfume
Just remember that I made the attractive perfume

"Math" by Tony

Math is going to be crash
I just want to throw it in trash
Just to forget like a splash
Math is my brain like a permanent flash

These fractions are such a distraction
I want it to be gone like a reaction
People say math is as good as a bath
But I say it's just a laugh

"Bad Decisions" by Elvia

Why do kids do everything to fit in?
Because they are under peer pressure
And even make themselves puke just to be thin

Why do kids choose to smoke?
Because they think it looks cool
Even though they almost choke

Why do people like to go to the bar and drink?
Because the are depressed
And don't think

Why do I think drugs are bad?
Because they are the worst killing things
That distract people from good health
Then they end up in a cemetary
Their lives ruined by drugs

"Career" by Elvia

I am a girl who wants to be a lawyer
I do my best in college to do my career, and get the greatest grades
I have fun in school even though it may be a little boring
I get home to rest my house is so clean I forgot it was Friday and paid my housemaids

I don't care how I go dressed to school
I may look bad or good I just want to do well in school and don't care
I get to social studies my favorite class
I just got done with my test I hope I did well and say a prayer

I have good grades in every class
I am very happy and proud it's the last day of school
I am a girl who wants to be a lawyer
I graduated and finally I am a lawyer

"Answers" by Tony

Being an English learner is easy
English is just like my language but easier
It took effort and knowledge
It would be harder if I go to college

Speaking two languages is a piece of cake
But when it comes to presentations it's goodness sake
Sometimes I even get a partner to help me out
When someone speaks my language I don't like to shout

Home to school is not hard
It's just like an easy card
I just like the moment that takes from home to school
But sometimes it is cruel

In other countries I have one
He's a boy and he's little
Still little and smart but still waiting
He will soon come

I do not much live in two cultures
I just enjoy my own and watching nature
There's not much places to go
But I'm pretty sure living two cultures is still easy

"I" by Gabe

I don't like learning English in school
I already know it and I am not a fool

I like to speak two languages it is fun
It is better than speaking just one

I like being a bridge between school and home
I, I, I, I am never alone

I hate having family far away
I won't see my cousins so we could go out and play

I like having two different cultures
I don't know a word that rhymes with culture

"America" by Elvia

To learn English was hard
Once I learned it was like a reward
But having to change languages
wasn't hard because
I already knew one language

It's awesome I can speak two languages
But it's hard having to translate cases
I am very proud of who I am
by being able to say phrases

It's hard when you can't go to Mexico
Every single time because it's lots of money
It gets me angry


I love my culture

Like in July

When we look at the fire works

in the Sky

"Spanglish" by Sonia

It is kind of hard
Sometimes I feel like a retard
Speaking two languages is cool
Because you could go back and forth like a tool

It's hard because you don't see your family a lot
I wish I could live with them all in the same spot
It's like living in two different skies
It hurts, you look at them with different eyes

Spanglish that's whay I speak
I speak both languages every single week
I don't like to speak Spanish at school
If I do they might think I am cruel

"I Like to Speak Two Languages" by Ivan

I like to speak two languages
I have to speak Spanish at home
And at school I have to speak English
I like the way I speak my Spanish
I also have to speak Spanish in a school club
I like to go back and forth in speaking languages
It's hard to translate for my parents everyday
Some classes are hard because I don't understand

"Boyfriends" by Gabi

How many boyfriends have you had?
Depends how many I dated.
How many dates did you guys go on?
Depends how fun and good they were.
How many gifts did he give you?
Depends how much he wanted to spend.
How many kisses did he give you?
Depends how many times I gave him a mint.

"Romantic Love" by Ivan

Being with you makes me so happy I cry
I like to hold your hand and that's no lie
I want to take you to the movies
But I don't know how to show it. I'm shy.

You are so beautiful
I see you and I mumble
I love to smile
My heart starts to rumble

I love the way you care for me
I like to hold you tightly
I like to go on an epic adventure
My love for you will be longer than eternity

"Hamster or Something Like That" by Marco

*dedicated to a hamster I don't own
To my favorite hamster
You look like my great-granddaughter

I like your big round eyes
I'll always give you a surprise

You are fat but you are fun
You always make me run

My Mom loves you
But my sister says Eew!

"My Teacher" by Anabel

*dedicated to Mrs. Klukas

I have a lot of teachers
But I just have a favorite one.
The one who makes me happy
when I always get my work done.

My teacher is the best of all
She always makes kids happy.
She listens to you all the time
She never gets crabby.

School is really fun with her
Her subjects are really smart.
For sure she is never boring
Mrs. Klukas has a huge heart.

"Shopping" by Sonia

I love to go shopping to the stores
I love to buy clothes and shoes
But I have no clue which ones to choose
I totally don't like to do chores

I like the mall a lot
I can't explain how much I like buying
It makes me feel like I'm flying
I just like shopping in a certain spot

I like to go shopping with my buddy
When I go with my friends it is crazy
We never like to be lazy
We never like to study

"Quiet" by Anabel

I always like to be quiet
Quiet is my little world
I always have a diet
Quiet is my house all the time

I never like to talk
When I talk I feel dumb
It's always hard to walk
Walk on the noise of my heart

Quiet because of your fault
You always used me like a toy
I always wanted you to hault
Now my qorld is all quiet

"Ms. Frazier's Furry Friends" by Ms. Frazier

My little friend's name is Izzy
Her hair usually becomes frizzy
The other little one is Scamperz
She is outo f her pampers

They like to talk and squeak
I give them a bath every week
Apples and carrots are their favorite treats
When they hear the fridge open their hearts rapidly beats

During the summer they like to play in the sun
They rest a lot and sleep when they are done
Another thing they likes it to be pet
Their food is expensive so I go into debt

I enjoy being with them
Not when they chew on a stem
They usually don't like to dig
After all they are only guinea pigs

"School is Cool" by Sonia

I go to middle school
I think it is very cool
Some teachers are very nice
Just like some of the rice

I like MS because it is the best
The thing I really hate is taking a test
I love math
I also follow a path

"Amor" by Elvia

El amor es como una experiencia
Cuando se va te sientes sola/o
El amor es bonito cuando te saben respetar
El amor es tierno como una rosa perfumada
Tu corazón es amor eterno y real
Cuando alguien te ama te lo demuestran
Si tu corazón te dice algo y los demás te dicen algo percige tu corazón
El amor no es para ser celosa/o tienes que confiar
Cuando se va se puede ir para siempre
El amor es una experiencia en la vida

"To You, From Me" by Miss Cragun

*dedicated to my students

To you, from me
A poem with my philosophy:

Life is hard, all the miles
But do it with a lot of smiles.

Friends are good but some mislead
Keep the flowers, get rid of weeds.

Sunny days are always welcome
but don't ignore the rainy rhythms.

Dreaming is our breath of life
Fight for them with all your strife.

Make good choices you will never regret
But take some risk impossible to forget.

Learning is your only lifetime tool
Don't neglect your education like a fool.

Help others with love and service
Your heart will swell, this I promise.

True love will take years to find
But worth the wait for your own mankind.

Some things stay, but most things change
Make sure your family you never estrange.

Laughter and happiness is the key
but live a life you'd want your kids to see.

Have faith in some higher power unseen
And recognize humans are not machines.

Find something that drives and inspires you
Live with passion until the day life is through.

"I Believe in Ghosts" by Ivan

I believe in ghosts
My body is a host
I try to scare my friends
I believe in ghosts

I believe in ghosts
I am a ghost
My friends are a bunch of scaredy cats
I believe in ghosts

I believe in ghosts
I like to make jokes about ghosts
Ghosts are really scary things
I believe in ghosts

I believe in ghosts
In the morning I eat toast
The boogieman is the best
I believe in ghosts

"Una Amistad de Amor" by Miss Frazier

Mi amiga es muy simpática
La conocí en África
Hoy su pelo esta muy suave
Desde su casa vuelve

A veces estoy un poco celosa
Lleva ropa lujosa
Yo no tengo mucho
Mi novio siempre es insatisfecho

Tengo que trabajar muy duro
Nuestra amistad es un milagro
Para ella cada cosa es tan fácil
Y mi Corazón es muy débil

La necesito
Con todo su cuentito
Nuestra historia es muy larga
De mi alma ella encarga

"Ivan" by Ivan

Ivan is good looking
He wants to know what's cooking

He is tired, too
He likes the number 2

He came from a zoo
He wants to shop in Peru

He always has money in his pocket
So he can launch himself a rocket

"Big Crow" by Thai


I heard a sound
Everywhere around
Into the night
With lots of fright
I saw something flying inside a room
I open the door with a really big boom
I look in the room where they store the fake snow
But don't jump now. That is one big crow.

"Gabi" by Elvia

If Gabi was super hyper
She'd pass the limit saying adidos papi rico to hot guys riding in her viper
She would wear mini skirts, belly shirts, glasses, and lip gloss named flirt on her lips
If Gabi was super hyper

If Gabi was super hyper
She'd be partying all day
long in her sneakers
If Gabi was super hyper

If Gabi was super hyper
She would even change a baby's diaper
Then she would take care of it
If Gabi was super hyper

If Gabi was super hyper
She would never lie to herself
She wuold follow what her heart says
If Gabi was super hyper

But if Gabi isn't super hyper
She'd be calm and shy and thinking of songs by rappers
In her mind she'd be making up a song
But will be shy to show the song that she made just like the rappers
Gabi is just a girl with big dreams
She can get a little calm or hyper
She hopes to see Wisin Y Yandel in her daydreams
When she finally see them in real life
She pinches herself to see if she is alive
And is happy of joy and screams
If Gabi was super hyper

"Elvia" by Gabi

Elvia might be shy to talk to guys
You should see all the things she buys
She ain't quiet but she ain't hyper
But she is a good camper

When she sees a guy she likes she goes crazy and wants to cry
When it comes to talking to them her cheeks get all red cuz she is shy
Elvia luvs to dance to Reggeaton music with all the guys around
Then this guy comes up to dance with her that weighed 180 pounds

Elvia was so disappointed
But u should agree with her she has a point

Right Girls?

"Gabi's Adventures" by Sonia

Gabi is a sassy girl
She is so nice
She likes to twirl
She doesn't like mice

Gabi is going crazy for a boy
She is going to become a ballerina
Gabi doesn't treat anyone like a toy
But that guy has a girlfriend named Gina

Now Gabi's heart is broken
Gabi really liked him
She hasn't spoken
She met a boy when she went for a swim

"Gymnastics" by Sonia

Would you ever be in gymnastics, yes or no?
Yes I would, I love it.
If you were in it would you go with the flow?
I would never like to quit.

Do you know how to do flips?
Only some that aren't that hard.
Do you know how to do the splits?
Yes but it is kind of hard.

Have you ever been to a gymnastics competition?
Yes it was very cool.
Did you have to get in the right position?
Yes that was my favorite tool.

"Why?" by Gabe

Why do Cows moo?
Because they do.
Why do men read to their wives?
Because they have no lives.
Why do teachers teach?
Because they have goals to outreach.
Why do light bulbs light?
So they won't get in a fight.
Why do soccer players play with a soccer ball?
Because they could footstall.

Why does Tony have lice?
Because he eats mice.
Why do cars honk?

Why did Gabe and Tony write poems?
Because Miss Cragun told 'em.

"Why Do?" by Tony

Why do trees have bark?
Because dogs bark
Why do sharks have teeth?
Because they don't live in reefs
Why do fishes breed?
Because the father will lead
Why do animals have scales?
To leave others pale
Why do teachers help?
To make children yelp
Why do humans have two buck tooth?
So people can be smooth
Why do people get sick?
To get others lick
Why do people say hi?
Because others will say bye!

"Sassy Scissors" by Marco




Why do scissors cut sassy?
Because they don't like you.
Do you know what they like to drink?
They like to drink Mountain Dew.
Do you know what they eat?
The like to eat paper.
Do you know what they dream of?
They dream of capers.

"The Rain" by Thai


I walk through the path where flowers grow

I stop and stare

but no one was there

I heard a cry

Moments go by


I heard a crash with flashing light everywhere

You can see people running from here to there

I look up and felt the drop on my face

With a moment like this, it can't be erased

"Por Tu Amor" by Ana





La primera vez que te mire evite mirarte a los ojos,
No quise pronunciar tu nombre que era Alfonso
Hasta que un dia tu insististe en hundirme en el poso, en el
Cual me atore y no pude salir por que me enamore de ti.



"Las Mejores Amigas" by Ana

Éramos enemigas inseparables, nunca dejamos de pelear
Tu eras una persona muy irresponsable en la cual no se podía confías
Hoy día que te miro halos ojos miro la persona que as deser y que nunca
Mas a de cambiar
Hoy frente a frente te digo, Gloria eres mi hermana del alma nunca te olvidare por que
Un cariño de hermandad cuando es sinceró de verdad nunca se puede olvidar.
Hermana te quiero de verdad…

"Cows" by Ivan

I have no clue
Why the cow goes moo
Maybe he thinks about kangaroos
Then he might move to Peru
I want to go to the movies with Sue
Together we flew
To the sky I will take Sue
The Jew says, "Eew"
When me and Sue kiss behind the zoo
The Jew jumps out and says, "boo"
I tell her to look at the view
And the sky looks pretty like the color blue

"Life" by Anabel

Why is life difficult for me?
Because your life is a mess.
Why is my life a mess?
Because you always have less.
Why do I have a fun life?
Because you always have everything.
If I have everything, why am I sad?
Because what you need to do in your life is sing.

"Why Poetry?" by Miss Cragun

Why do we have to write poetry?
Because I said so.
Why do you say so?
It's good for your pencil.
Why is it good for my pencil?
It likes to weave words like pretzels.
What is writing a pretzel?
Poetry.

"No One Can Prepare You" by Tiffany

I never knew it could hurt this bad,
I never knew I could feel this sad.

I wanted to make sense of it all,
And ended up taking a great fall.

I yearned to make it right,
I didn't give up without a fight.

I decided to jump in with both feet,
And realized I had feelings I didn't want to greet.

I tried to listen with my mind,
But had feelings I couldn't bind.

I thought I knew how I would feel,
I thought I knew how to deal.

I wanted to be true,
I went with what I knew.

I feel like crap,
Trying to re-cap.

Know that I care,
This just isn't fair.

"Volleyball" by Sonia

I think volleyball is very cool
I am really concerned about that
That it's my favorite sport
I don't like to play with a bat

I just love falling on my knees
Even though it hurts a lot
But I don't like to be injured
I don't like to be caught

Do you like Volleyball?
It is so much fun
I wish to never stop playing
I think I like it a ton

When I grow up I wish to be a pro
Win a lot of money and be the best
I would put a lot of effort into it
I think I am very obsessed





"Homework" by Marco

Homework is not fun
We have to take it home
I like it at school
Homework is not fun

Homework is not fun
I feel like I want to die
When my backpack is full of book I cry
Homework is not fun

Homework is not fun
If I don't do it the next day
I get in trouble until May
Homework is not fun

"Smurf" by Gabe


There once was a smurf from a shoe
Who loves to eat people like you
But one day he ate
An ugly kid's fate
The kid was from the ugly country Peru

"Because of You" by Anabel

Because of you I don't sleep in the night
We always had a good time flying a kite

Because of you I don't pay attention
When I think of you I always have a detention

Because of you I never eat
And now I never have a beat

Because of you I always fall in love
Because of you I always sing like a dove

"Math" by Miss Cragun

Makes me feel bloated
Arteries corroded
Vile in my spleen
Begins to careen

Please don't ask me to help
I promise I'll yelp
I have a hard time paying attention
I'd rather write essays in detention

Fractions to decimals to fractions
Student performs below satisfaction
Algebra can go down the drain
It causes an aneurysm in my brain

Without my calculator I'd fail
I divide at the speed of a snail
I wish there was a mathematical fairy
That changed all math into men named Larry

"School" by Anabel

School is not cool
School is always cruel
The teachers are not cool
School is like a tool

Teachers think they know everything
But they really don't know a thing
Teachers are always talking
They never let kids be walking

My favorite subject is being in home
I hate writing in class a poem
The class I hate more is Comm. Arts
In Comm. Arts, they always break my heart

"My School" by Miss Frazier

The food in this school really stinks
It makes my face turn pink
Sometimes the food looks kinda hairy
It makes him sick, my poor friend Larry

Need I mention the three minute passing time
That's hardly enough time to start a rhyme
And if I am late the teacher gets mad
This makes me feel very sad

My friends and I talk a lot
We are good kids and don't smoke pot
My best friend and I share a locker
The school had put up an internet blocker

In the end school is pretty cool
I like to go home and play in my pool
Ms. Cragun is my favorite teacher
She let us write a science fiction story about a creature

"School" by Tony

Lunch:
Our lunch is so disgusting
Mostly my friends and me are discussing
School lunch makes me grossed out
The lunch here makes me shout!

Homework:
Work makes me go frustration
Especially when I have a homework with a fraction
I like it when there's no homework, it brings me satisfaction
I feel like I need a summer vacation

Recess:
Play time should be longer
If it's not, I get into hunger
Our time is crazy
Which makes us lazy

Class:
My class is so talkative
Mostly everyone is negative
When everyone is quiet I get my pride back
Next my eye vision goes black

"Lunch" by Gabe

The lunch program sucks pencil
When you grab food they won't give you utencils
They always have the same food everyday
Every time they would give disgusting food I have to pray
The lunch ladies cut their hair on the food
That when we see the hair it changes our mood
It really wants to make us protest
I'd rather eat spinach while taking a math test

"Elvia and Gabi" by Sonia

Elvia and Gabi are my best friends
They want to change the color of their eyes, they use lens

Elvia and Gabi like to dance
Boys just wish they had a chance

They move their hips
As they blow kisses with their lips

Elvia and Gabi wear their miniskirts at night
All the boys say they sure look tight

"My Life" by Sonia

My life is really cool
I go to a good school
I have some best friends
They aren't that cruel

My life is all about sports
Sometimes I have to write reports
I couldn't live without them
I enjoy playing in the basketball court

My favorite sport is basketball
I couldn't live without it at all
If I could I would play it all day and night
I am so excited to go play basketball

"Sonia" by Elvia

Sonia is my best friend
Has a cute boyfriend

She puts lip plumper to shine her lips
She dances to belly dancing music with her hands on her hips

Every boy practices belly dancing just to get a chance with her
The boy's drool over her

As calm as she looks she likes to flirt
Her boyfriend found her flirting her heart hurt

She was too sad and quit belly dancing
When she found herself romancing

The doy asked Sonia to come over to his house
He took her outside like he said and took her out of his house

He found out Sonia loves to flirt
Then Sonia was invited to a dance and wore a mini skirt

At the dance Sonia found the perfect man
Both are Daddy Yankee's number one fan

"Elvia" by Sonia

Elvia is my best friend
She never likes to pretend

She thinks that she is a super hot girl
But her Mom says she is a pearl

Elvia dreams of becoming a lawyer
She is a total destroyer

Dancing is her favorite thing
When she gets married she wants a king

She also wants to become a Hollywood star
She doesn't know that she's getting the best car

She doesn't know if her dream will come true
She always has the flu

"The Boogieman Lives Under My Bed" by Gabe

The boogieman lives under my bed
I really want him dead
He treats me like a toy
Because I'm a little boy
He always pulls my arm
Like if I'm a cow from a farm

Then there's Frankenstein
He's BFs with the Boogieman
Frankenstein always asks me for the lead
Because he needs them for the nails he has on his head

Then there's Manbearpig
He's not like the one on TV who wears a wig
He always bites my toes
And he always licks my nose
He has no life
Because he got divorced by his wife

Then there's Bigfoot
His feet are gross they have peices of roots
He really likes tongues
Like once he blew my tongue that it almost touched my lungs

Also there's Hitler
Who is a girl hitter
He once tried to eat my finger
Because he thought it was a chiliburger

Then there's the Kool-Aid Dude
He is always in the nude
He really loves to chew my shorts
because he is a mort

Last there's the Ronald McDonald clown
I always feel like chopping him down
because he is freaky
and he's always leaky

"HS ELL" by Miss Frazier

We have so much fun
We are six plus one
We seem to all work good together
Sometimes we talk about the weather

First let me tell you about Thai
In class he is the oldest guy
He likes to play a game
Sometimes to him class is lame
He tells Ms. Frazier every day when he watches a movie
I think Thai is really groovy

Then there is Ana
She lingers in class after the sound of the campana
She works very hard
And likes to play in the yard
She and Ms. Frazier talk mucho en espanol
She is a good person and has a good soul

Another sneaky student is good old Ari
His head is shaved so he is not hairy
He likes to wear his pants low
He doesn’t always go with the flow
Boring is how he would describe school
However Ari is super cool

The last of the chavos we have in class is Noel
In biology class he learned about the cell
He likes to play cards
And stay out of trouble from the guards
He likes to go outside when it is sunny
Noel can be very funny

The lucky other girl is PaKou
To her studies she is always true
She always has a smile on her face
And writes at a very quick pace
To her parents she is a very fine treasure
Having her in class is always such a pleasure

I need to go on to mention Ms. Cragun
When students are difficult she turns into a dragon
Her classroom is very relaxing
Her job can be very taxing
She is an awesome teacher
Her eyes are her best feature

I really enjoy our high school class
Every class I wish the students to pass
To all the teachers I hope you have students as good as these
This year has flown by just like the breeze

"Read" by Miss Cragun

Off to distant places
People in new lands
Turning all the pages
Gives me shaky hands

Step inside my head
Leaving life behind
Laying on my bed
Hermit Crab for a time

Getting to the end
Raises mixed emotions
It's time I like to spend
Existing in slow motion

Wednesday, April 16

"Write" by Miss Cragun

Sketching out a picture
Snapping a photograph
Oil on a canvas
Clay in a sculptor's hands

Words paint your image
So mix shades of color
And mold scenes with craft
Give your breath of life creation

"Sixth Period Madness" by Miss Frazier

I am sick and tired of all this noise
It usually comes from all the boys
However, today it comes from a girl
To her parents she is a little pearl

The girl is mostly quiet and nice
She usually goes around as quiet as mice
But today is different and she is being sassy
She is not being a very good lassie

And need I forget the guy in the reading room
He too is unruly and shows his gloom,
"I hate writing poems for Ms. Cragun,
Maybe she will pass away like Reagan!"

"Ari and Jenkins" by Miss Frazier

There was a guy named Ari
He was very clever and crazy
He thinks Ms. Cragun and Ms. Frazier are a bit scary
But sometimes he is a bit lazy

Ari became a dad the other day
Being a dad is too hard because Ari is so young
He doesn't even know how to play
All Jenkins does is produce tons of dung

Ari wanted to sell Jenkins or give him away
He even thought to bring him to school as a pet
In his little box he will not stay
Poor Ari was filled with a bunch of regret

Ari's little Jenkins was as cute as a muffin
He liked to play fetch with a puck
Don't be fooled, he is not a puffin
Ari's new baby is a duck

"The Mean Miss Cragun" by Marco

Every morning I don't want to wake up
Ms. Cragun makes us write poems
And I hate writing them
When she comes into class she brings a gnome

When she tells us to start writing a poem
I feel like running home
She stops me and then she tells me to go sit
Ms. Cragun always tells us that her house is a dome

I just want my clock to break
So I don't have to go to school
It will be another boring day
I will bring a mule

"Behavior Moods" by Tony

When everyone is in a good mood
Everyone will call each other dude
But when they're in a bad mood
They say you are so rude

When someone is mean
Everyones head pops like a bean
What have you seen?
Well everyones just got to lean

"People Who Don't Believe in Ghosts" by Tony


Ghosts will haunt you down one day
They will scare you until you turn grey
Don't say anything bad or you'll soon regret
Anyone can give the biggest threat
Human and ghost don't belong
If you are scared go to Hong Kong
But if you're not you should stay
Until the end of your day
Ghosts will drag you away
Your family will only see you when they say, "hey"
When you go to a place to play
A ghost will sign a contract with you and if you breach
You will hear something screech

"Amazing Blue" by Tony

Out in the blue I hear dolphins cry
Out in the city I hear people say bye
When I am inside a building I am full of pride
When I go in the blue I have to get back dry

I like it when I am at the beach because others say, "hi"
When I dream I think of fish fry
When time flies by I like the ride
When I'm in water I look good, especially with a tie

"The Clock" by Anabel

You always wake me up
In the morning with your alarm
I'm really so tired
That I can't even move my arm.

Every day you wake me up to go
To school every morning
I always have to
Go to school running

I wish there was no school
Because I hate school
On every morning
The teachers are so cruel

In school there's
Always a bell
A bell that drives me crazy
Every time the bell yells

The clock is my enemy
Every time the clock
Marks the hours I always
Want someone to get me a shock

"Soccer Star" by Marco











If I was a soccer star
The goal seems really far
I kick the ball as hard as I can
If I was a soccer star

If I was a soccer star
I can see my red car
People will cheer when I made a goal
If I was a soccer star

If I was a soccer star
I will raise the bar
People will yell at me
If I was a soccer star

"School Days" by Miss Frazier

Today I did not want to get out of bed
My hair was all messed up on my head
I hurried down stairs to make my lunch
I hope Mom made me some punch

Now that I'm ready it's off to school
I hope we get to do something cool
My friends and I were a'talking
At us our teacher was a'gawking

She said that we were being very bad
Getting yelled at made my mood very sad
For recess we got to go outside and play
That made up for the rest of my bad day

So now the days over and back home I go
I want to ride my bike so I don't want it to snow
I got to play with Sammi, my friendly little dog
I want my poem to forever be on Ms. Cragun's blog

Tuesday, April 15

"Soccer" by Gabi

Basketball, volleyball, and soccer, too
The exercises and the practices we do

It ain't hard, it ain't easy like you having the flu
The coaches coach, the players play like you might, too

Ice is melting like water, take a few
When you're thirsty like me and you

Shhhhh! The game is about to start, too
But the players missed the game to go to Peru

One player is still here but he has the flu
Then someone asked him if he had the flu, but he said it ain't true

The team is back from Peru, but they came back with a Kangaroo
People looked and looked, then started laughing because the kangaroo was wearing a shoe

"Don't Blink" by Miss Cragun

You
Eyes of Blue
Throwing your head back
Laughter ripples across the room

Booming
Echoes dancing
Bright teeth flashes
Exploding smile

Snapshot
Memory engrained
Still life moving images
Played for my mind's eye

"I Wish" by Sonia

I wish I was nice
Like some of the rice
I wish I could fly
Like the birds in the sky
I wish I had a clue
About how important is Peru
I wish I was a hot superstar
So I could have the best super car

"Me and You" by Sonia

We were together, me and you
Like animals in a zoo

Me and you bought a shoe
You put it on and I did, too

Me and you said we had the flu
When we got outside, we saw the cutest view

When we were outside we saw a kangaroo
He chewed you up and I said, "Eew!"

"Stuff" by Sonia

I was looking at the sky
I thought it was very high
Then all of a sudden I saw a star
It was as bright as lights on a car.

Someday I hope I could be in a zoo
Like the animals that live there I wish I could, too
The animals smell like a shoe
That's disgusting! Eew!

"Child's Play" by Miss Cragun

Now I see you
Now I don't
Your peek-a-boo
Hides my seek

Round and round we go
Rings around the rosie
Ashes to ashes
Just I fell down

Over the river
Through the woods
Red rover red rover
No four leaf clover

Teetering or Tottering
Monkey bars and knotted ropes
Swinging on my heart strings
Creaks like rusty chains

Sun scorched slides
Splintery wood
More than just grass
Stains this spot

Sticks and stones
With broken bones
Your rubber made me glue
Game called due to rain

"Eighth Grade Comm. Arts" by Miss Cragun

Let me tell you about three of my students
They are funny but they aren't very prudent
Everyday in the hallways they parade
For each class they are frequently truant

First, I'll share about Tony
His face shows he's no phony
in the lunch line he absolutely refuses
to eat anything that was near pepperoni

Second, I'll explain about Gabe
His face he's trying to shave
as he spends hours in the mirror everyday
The girls he's preparing to stave

Last, but not least, is Ivan
His smile is never all gone
He tries to use it as a secret weapon
To sneak out of class while saying, "so long!"

"Seventh Grade Comm. Arts" by Miss Cragun

Gabi, Elvia, and Sonia
Dream and dream about guys
Each day they have new crushes
And talk about them with heavy sighs

Gabi is the most bold
Talking about wanting to kiss
con chicos y muchachos muy guapos
pero Senorita Cragun no hablo spanish

Shy, but flirty, is Elvia
In clubs she likes to dance
Swinging her hips to Reggeaton
All the boys wish for a chance

Sonia is the most reserved
She stays steady and true
Keeping her love a secret
Her cheeks turn a red hue

"Sixth Grade Comm. Arts" by Miss Cragun

Marco is a silly boy
Who uses words like a toy
Every day and every morning
Into class he comes a'storming

Anabel is a quiet girl
Whose lips are always in a curl
In our class she sits so pretty
Dreaming of her home city

Together they come each day
To learn English and pray for May
At Ms. Cragun they smile big
But Ms. Frazier they really dig!

"Ms. Frazier" by Anabel

Ms. Frazier is a really nice teacher
She always goes to the church to the preacher
She always gets to school late in the morning
Because in her house she has a lot of creatures

Ms. Frazier speaks Spanish really good
She always brings a sweater with a hood
Ms. Frazier always needs to teach Marco
By him she has always stood

Ms. Frazier teaches a Spanish club
It's more fun than sitting in a tub
A club that Marco doesn't come
He would never want to be in the club

"One Disturbing Person" by Tony

One day I had to fight with a guy named Joe
I don't know why
He's not easy as you think
When I won I walked home slow with a sigh

Another day I walked down the street
I went to the store to get some food
I heard a voice it sounded like Joe
Suddenly I heard a low voice yelling "DUDE"!

Joe said "s'up" to me
I didn't care
I kept walking out of the store
He followed me, I told him to leave, then he gave me a stare

"Winter Curse" by Tony

In the winter it's such a freeze
All of a sudden I felt a breeze
I saw snow blow away
But still I stay
I thought I was dreaming but I was not
I was just standing then I got a blood clot
I am so cold I got frost bite
I finally knew I got to get out of the snow's sight
While I was thinking I saw the sun coming out bright
I also saw a beautiful light
When I looked down I see the snow melting
I heard people belching
I saw birds finding their mate
I figured out I had to start a debate
But it is way too late
So I really wanted to get out of this state

"Great News" by Gabe

OMG I have great news
Something happened today
at 7:40 am
on the twenty-fourth of May

When I walked into school
I was happy about today
there wasn't any school
because it was a Saturday!

"My Teacher Who was a Drinker" by Gabe

My teacher who was a drinker
Was stupid, not much of a thinker
He would always come to school drunk
And have his kids in the car's trunk
He would always be mad at his class
He would love to scream at his cup of glass
He is not allowed to bring some Corona
But instead he has to bring "tuna"
He can't bring Budweiser, Vodka, or Bud Light
He can only bring "Coke", "Pepsi", or "Crystal Light"
I'll tell you more about this guy
He likes gambling, women, and getting high
Oh, I forgot he was also a smoker
He really loves to play poker
But for all he's a pretty nice dude
But when he's drunk, that changes his mood

"Flu" by Elvia

I go to school with Lou
Lou chewed a shoe with the flu

Lou went home sick with the flu
Lou threw a show at the moo

The cow threw glue at Lou
Lou got glue in her hair with a shoe

On she went mad with the flu
Sneezed and coughed at the cow, too

The cow had the flu with a moo
Cow went on a vacation to Peru

Lou sneezed and coughed at me, too
With the flu and glue on her hair with a shoe

Pay no attention to this revenge I got the flu, too
Now I went home with the flu

Lou made everyone go home with the flu
Everyone had the flu

"Soccer" by Marco

Soccer takes skills
Learning all the drills
We stretch before we play
So we don't get hurt on game day
You have to be fast
To try not to be last
You can be a jet
So you can get the ball in the net
Opponents you must trick
And get it pass the goalie Nick
The ball over him flies
And he shouts at his guys
Great players you need on your team
So you can live up to your dreams
Soccer is lots of fun
We play in the sun

"The Secret" by Anabel

I have a big secret
In the night I sing like a cricket
I always go past your house
You are tricky like a mouse
You played with my heart
You always had a start
I wanted to take you to Peru
But my big secret is that I still love you!

"My Teacher, Ms. Cragun" by Anabel

Ms. Cragun is a busy teacher
Ms. Cragun always sits in a bleacher
She does her make-up at school in the morning
Ms. Cragun is never boring
She always has alot of ideas
Ms. Cragun would love to have a daughter Maria
Ms. Cragun doesn't have any clue
That she always gives candy to you!

Friday, April 11

"Blue Eye Lou" by Miss Cragun

I love a boy named Lou
He loves a girl named Sue

Together they purr and coo
I can't help but say, "eew!"

I don't know who
Wants the love goo

Excuse me while I spew
They're vacationing in Peru

Really, I thought Lou knew
That I wish they were through

Until then I will sit and stew
And dream of his eyes so blue

"My First Kiss" by Anabel

My first kiss was with you
I really wanted to spew

I did like it, too
It was my first kiss with Lou

I was turning so blue
I was so happy that I wanted to shout cock-a-doodle-do!

"The Sky" by Anabel

The sky is color blue
It has clouds, too.

When the sky turns gray I want to spew
Clouds sometimes make shapes like Kangaroos.

The sky is really high up with the stars and the moon
The sky is pretty but not as you.

"Echoing Silence" by Miss Frazier

The lonely man sat pondering as he ate his stew
"Why do I always feel so blue?"

It seems as if I am constantly sick with the flu
Silence filled the room except for an echoing coo.

The man jumped up startled from the clue
I may not be alone after all, "who are you?"

Are you close by? What is your hue?
He bent down to look by his shoe.

Please tell me your name, I'll tell you mine it's Nephou.
I once was a hunter of the lovely caribou,

But they are all gone now stuck in some zoo,
I spend my days sitting on the porch of my house in Peru.

There was no response; nothing came into view.
The man knew he was alone again, after all there only remained but a few.

All his friends were killed for being a Jew.
Silence filled the room except for the coo.

There must be someone here or something new
And the owl flew over on that cue.

Oh how happy the man was, "Now it's me and you."
The man spent the rest of his days listening to the owl whoo.

"A Look" by Anabel

I took a look at you
Then I saw you had something new.

I really want to spew.
I looked at you, and you said my name, "Lou".

I was so embarrassed that I wanted to be in Peru.
I looked again at you and I fell in love with you.

"Death Upon You" by Gabriel (2008)

I'm going to send death upon you
I could kill you by throwing you a shoe

First, I could take you to Peru
then me and you could go hunt some caribou.

Next, when you're not looking I will slew
Noone would know where you are, they won't have a clue.

Next, I'll go buy some glue
And glue you into a kangaroo.

Then, I woke up in Peru
Good thing this is just a dream or I would've been sued.

Finally, I saw you buying a shoe
And I thought I will never send Death upon you!

"Miracles Could Be True" by Tony

In the morning I heard a cock-a-doodle-do
I saw chickens wearing shoes.

I thought this is fake but it is so true
I see my horses putting their shoes on, too.

I looked down then I saw you
When I talked it looked like you flew.

When I went back inside I drew a picture of a kangaroo.
I colored it blue and I hope you could come back, too.

"The Haunted Kitchen" by Marco

The Mountain Dew went dew
The blue cheese went, "eew!"

The soup had to boo
The cat went moo.

The dog went to the zoo
He got a good view.

"The Zoo" by Anabel

I always like to go to the zoo.
Today I went to the zoo.

There are a lot of animals, too.
I saw a bird color blue.

Then I saw a kangaroo.
Today was a good day to go to the zoo.

"The Unexpected Visitor" by Miss Cragun

This morning I woke up next to you
I couldn't stop from screaming, "eew!"

I knew what you wanted to do
looking at me with big eyes so blue.

I really can't stand the sight of you
I hate your stupid name, Lou.

Taking that to be your cue,
You started to coo and mew.

Although I think you already knew
My stomach wanted to spew,

My mother I wanted to sue,
And to church I'll pray in a pew!

How could she buy a cat like you?
I need to drink my Mountain Dew!
