//**The poetry of the people...These are so great, and I am very honoured that you shared them with me.

__You are the only one__**// You are the only one That plays in my mind, like a re-run I think about you all the time You’re the reason I can’t sleep at night It hurts so much I can’t explain the pain I know it isn’t right It’s hard to believe You actually liked me as you said I can’t help the thought That sometimes I wish you were dead I know that I’ll think about you tonight And than tomorrow again It makes my heart ache Knowing you have a girlfriend Hoping that I’ll move on soon Or having you turn into a baboon Walking through life alone With no one to hold my hand I moan and groan You know I still love you And secretly it’s true By: Trisha W

//__**Nature Poem --** Barrett S__// As I look across a large field, I notice a few things, Bugs, birds, trees, though they are few, They have beauty through and through, Why do they have such beauty? It is nature, that’s its duty, Past this field, I see the end, Pollution, gases, construction workers! The end is the finish line, But you haven’t won In the end, The world is done. But nothing is meant to last, It is time to go back to class.

** NATURE ** by Lauren H   Nature, ugh how gross, I think I’ve gotten my fair dose, Nature makes me get the shivers, Thinking of all the tiny critters. Mom always tells me to get some fresh air, I agree but seriously I really don’t care, I do think outside is soothing and pretty, But when I grow up I think I’ll live in the city. When I’m outdoors trying to unwind, Ants and beetles are all that is on my mind, I do like taking vacations and exploring, But a lecture about nature, can we say //boring//. I do love the feeling of being outdoors, When creatures are crawling I’d rather do chores, I know you may think I need to get out more, Really, I think reading about nature is a big snore. Nature I wouldn’t say I totally dislike, I like going outside and going for nature hikes, I like to walk on beaches and swim in the sea, It’s the creatures that I can’t see that scare me. If it weren’t for my true love I’d be inside all day, It can fit into two words, can we say; //bug spray//.

Nature’s Symphony - Monica G The flowers are swaying in the breeze Dancing to the unheard music Down fall the leaves of the trees To join in nature’s symphony. The sun sends down its warming rays The crickets chirp the melody The birds cry out their song of praise To join in nature’s symphony. The deer of the forest sing their joy To add to the glorious harmony Outdoors is a beautiful place to enjoy And to join in nature’s symphony. The trees rise up and take the lead To command the earth in this song It shows us all its greatest need To join in nature’s symphony. The wind dies down; the story is finished The trees give out the final command The world-wide song will always be cherished When they joined in nature’s symphony. They may all be different; they have a different story, But together they’re the same, as they join in nature’s symphony.

**  God’s gift. **    Lauren H.        I look to the heavens above, They are covered by a sheet of grey, Grey like the angry sea, Tears from the heavens fall to the world below, The world that I’m restricted to, For one day I shall escape the boundaries, The boundaries of the universe and I will be free, Free of the fighting, Free of the hatred and war, There shall be peace in the world, The citizens shall be joyful once more, Joyful for the peace, Joyful for the happiness, The happiness that God has bestowed upon us, Shall we come together and be thankful for God’s gift, There we will be fortunate and we shall celebrate his present, But shall we take for granted the gift of life we shall pay, Pay for the years lost to fighting and war, Therefore we will destroy, Destroy what we had been lucky enough to receive, So take time to realize, Realize that there is hope in this world, Hope for happiness, Hope for joy, Hope for peace, Because we all are puzzle pieces that complete this world, We are all in this together.
