Basketball will always be my best sport
ReplyDeletefrom the time that the clock ticks,till the end
I'm always dribbling quickly down the court
Every layup or just a shocking spin.
I can hit a three or maybe a two
A step two the line to make a freethrow
I score quicker than you can tie your shoe
five seconds left so grab the ball and go.
The crowd screams crazy right before the tip
I'm excited and I can't feel my ears
We get the tip and the words leave my lips,
In basketball I've seen blood, sweat and tears.
I won't let basketball out of my heart
Even while continuing to stay smart.
Henry Hill
My passion for knowledge is far too big
ReplyDeleteThat I often find myself peeking in
A book of knowledge and wanting to dig
Even further every now and then.
Learning about new things every day
Doesn't change a bit when I sit and read
A book from the masters that I might say
Is rather fun if you think of the deed.
Knowledge is the key to fulfilling life
But knowledge alone cannot fill your heart
Lack of wisdom and knowledge can cause strife
Balance of love and knowledge can be art.
The future holds many discoveries
For people to make some recovery.
Andrew Simpson
I love gamin it is something I trust,
ReplyDeleteSometimes I buy them and rarely i rent,
Playing Call of Duty is a big must,
In the game you are allowed to sprint.
I love the weapons that are in the game,
If you use a FAL you can one shot them,
When I do terribly i feel insane,
If I noob tube i get kills on a whim.
Some of the maps I enjoy very muh,
I hate getting killed by noob tubers,
A lot of the times the maps are a crutch,
I hat getting rocket launched in the feet.
I love Call of Duty, the game is great,
When i play Britain's I say "Good day Mate."
Shopping is my one and only passion,
ReplyDeleteIt is a fantastical insane sport.
Shopping is the one language of fasion,
After shopping I head to the food court.
A dress, skirt, top may be an awesome hit,
My goal is to beat that ginormous crowd,
I will be looking for the shoe that fits,
Am I wanting something glamorous, loud?
Hollister, Macy's, Abercrombie, Aerie?
So many shops to visit and look around,
The mall is the magic kingdom, I its fairy,
Are these the new Steve Maddens I have found?
Nina's, Aldo, Nine West, BCBG,
I can't help it if shopping is my glee!
-Chelsey A.
Lover's Glade
ReplyDeleteWhen the evening light fades from the glade
Dusk draws closer upon the fragrant earth
Ushering in a youthful joyous maid
Face alit with love and eyes glowing mirth.
She yearns for her one love found in twilight
Gaze wandering forth through the dim forest
A light breeze accompanies green eyes bright
Stealing breath held tight from the girl poorest
He pays no heed for her status or dress
Lingering only in her eyes and smile.
Two lovers embrace and in love profess
To have and hold until death do exile.
In love’s sweet embrace they kiss forbidden
Thankful for a long future unwritten.
I bet you don't know what it really takes
ReplyDeleteyou think we just look like a bunch of fools
pushing your mucles till they almost break
I bet you don't even know half the rules.
Mostpeople think this sport is such a bore
I'd like to see you get out there and try
Once you put on those spikes and think you soar
Your legs start moving then you feel so high.
Once that short race starts its over to fast
You wait in line to see what your time was
You hope to god that you didn't get last
After the race your hair is all a fuzz
Now think before you decide to do track
It being tough is not fiction, it's fact.
--Robby Fernandez
Winter is the best season in the world,
ReplyDeleteIt is like a pretty white wonderland,
The snowflakes are beautiful and or twirled,
You will never see a kid in the sand.
The snow is mostly in the northern states,
I like it so much I could live in it,
When I was little I liked to make cakes,
I always made snowballs in a small pit.
School is out when the winter snow comes in,
Most of the kids go out to play and fight,
I'm so happy that my head starts to spin,
But when the summer comes I hate the light.
I will be happy if winter was here,
I will be happy if the snow was clear.
You are like rain on a nice summer day.
ReplyDeleteThe droplets falling from the dark blue sky.
We mold together like pieces of clay.
It always kills me when we say goodbye.
When together, I am always happy.
Drip, drip, the rain falls on your georgeous face.
But without you I feel kind of crappy.
If you leave, on my heart wil be a trace.
Your beautiful blonde hair blows in the wind.
Your blue eyes sparkle in the summer sun.
When your far away, great love you still send.
A golden trail of love on which I run.
But us together, we just cannot be.
I am sorry, but I hope you see.
~Miranda Symons
Oh my love who is devoted and true,
ReplyDeleteYour arms, forever strong, they hold me tight.
Trust me I could never live without you,
For you bring me such joy and such delight.
I can trust you, my love, you shall protect.
For when I'm alone, my life crashes down.
Through your loving embrace I shall not forget,
I won't sink in pain; you won't let me drown.
At night I dream of my lips meeting yours.
When I look in your eyes, I know I'm loved.
Your love covers me like sand on the shores.
Your love is pure like a white turtle dove.
Oh my sweet darling, how I love you so.
Oh please promise me you will never go.
Oh little ant how small you look to me
ReplyDeleteCrawling around with your little ant friends
Trying to get a sip of my sweet tea
Frantically running around curves and bends
You remind me of fluffy marshmallows
Or maybe my puppy Rufus Mcoy
I look back at you and my Doritos
Only to find you eating them with joy
Oh little ant how you remind me
How I have no marshmallows anymore
You and your friends stole my last cup of tea
Then to end this picnic it starts to pour
I go to the car ditching the picnic
Sprinting while beating them off with a stick
Call of Duty used to be fun to play.
ReplyDeleteBut the things that used to keep us playing
Have become the things that keep us away.
They make us mad and keep us from staying.
The only fun map to play is Scrapyard.
The glitches and hacks are unbearable.
I have more fun with dirt in my backyard.
The spawn system is just plain terrible.
It was just a waste of sixty dollars.
I can't wait to sell it A.S.A.P.
It only makes me mad and I holler.
I will try to keep it away from me.
Why did I waste my money on this game?
I should go move to Spain and change my name.
-- Randy Bridges --
Would you know what life truly needs to live?
ReplyDeleteWhen will you open your eyes to the Light?
Many other follies appear to thrive,
But they die and shall fun away in fright.
I will not be afraid in the valley;
"He gathers the lambs in his arms," Truth cries.
So when I'm afraid in the dark alleys,
What have I to fear? In Him, I'm alive.
Who is a prisoner? I am set free.
Here on Christ the solid rock I shall stand.
Rooted deeply in Him like that of tree,
my faith will ever live here in His hands.
So here on Christ the solid rock I stand,
Never to die in World's quick sinking sand.
~Emily Gill
My sonnet:
ReplyDelete1. I have a best friend, her name is Abby.
2. We have the best time shopping at the mall.
3. Sometime she's nice, sometime she is crabby.
4. But I love her just the same all in all.
5. Yesterday we had the best time ever.
6. We went to the pool, and laid in the sun.
7. Our tan was great due to the nice weather,
8. When we were tanning we had so much fun.
9. Next year we want to go to the same school.
10. I go to charter, she goes to Eastside.
11. Going to the same school, would be way cool.
12. When changing classes, we'll walk side by side.
13. This poem about my best friend Abby,
14. Was fun to write, and is not to shabby.
Music
ReplyDeleteMusic can describe a certain person.
Rap songs describe you in a lively way.
Dance music makes you party; get it son.
Folk musoc makes you think, im really gay.
R and B can also make you want to sing.
Lil Wayne is gonna drops beats in jail,
and so I sing: I'm going for the ring.
I rap so hard, I'm not gonna bail.
Country music makes me think I'm in love.
Harder to hate easier to love me;
the truth is I've gone through all the above,
Going to be what I'm destined to be.
Techno music makes me feel like a rave,
techno is the music I crave.
By: Will Bryson
When I look at you with a gaze of love
ReplyDeleteYou are the most beautiful person here
You look like you came from the sky above
Without you and your love I would shed tears.
Your voice and pretty face complete my heart
Withyour great blue eyes and awesome brown hair
You will always be first on my name chart
I will never ever leave you I swear.
Came one day you decided to play me
I felt the world falling on my shoulders
I fell in love with you, and now you see
When you saw me standing you threw boulders
You went off with him and he played you
And now that you see, it's too late for you.
Bishop Gregory Carter
ReplyDeleteThursday, the day that death called your sweet name
Hoping the pain would go away and cease
Hurting inside but there isnt a blame
Praying for God to just give us some peace
The plenty of lessons that you have taught
There's a two way street, both lead to a win
A victorious battle you have faught
Wishing you were here just once more again
But only to his will we must submit
Though there's an unlit path we cannot see
For he knows what's best and what he sees fit
Will always work accordingly for me
My yearning for God helps to heal more too
This sonnet is in memory of you
Be still and know that He is full of might
ReplyDeleteHe sees your heart and will make all things new
For he is the Way, the Truth, and the Light
His name is Jesus, and He died for you
His thoughts are so much higher than my own
And he has a huge purpose for my ilfe
His reasons and ways, to us, are unknown
He's full of grace, so there's no need for strife
Take heed to His word - all sixty-six books
You'll understand that we must qualify
You'll fall in love with His glorious looks
You'll serve as a disciple 'til you die
My spirit, I'll build and my flesh, I'll kill
So break me, Lord, and use me for Your will
Chalice Robber
ReplyDeleteAs I enter the gates of the palace,
each window and door glittering with gold,
my eyes gaze upon the ruby chalice.
The one no one has been able to hold.
Because this unique chalace is divine.
Mere peasants will never touch its beauty.
But today its glory will be all mine.
For as a robber, stealing's my duty.
As swift as light, I grab the cup and flee.
Silenty and quietly, I sneak out.
I smile, thinking nobody will catch me.
Then I'm horrified as I hear a shout.
A guard caught me and charged me with his spear
My mission failed and now I would die here.
-James Cannon
In the summer days when the view is clear
ReplyDeleteof warm temp. and the presence of the sun
and while a summer storm comes to us near
we never stop and be at the field to run.
The rainy days reminds us of cold times
of the cold weather that steals our smiles
and the arrival of spring sooths our minds
so then summer helps smiles run for miles.
But for the time that flys changes the face
as summer begins to leave from this year
it then breaks our smiles like a glass vase
and the coming of cold weather is near.
As the time has alot of shares for some
there are more summers in a life to come.
The violin is wonderful to play
ReplyDeleteThe beautiful sounds that come from within
I like when people say I did okay
Especially when they yell begin
I like to play in front of my friends
Even if I make several mistakes
Hopefully my lessons will never end
My strings teacher treats me to giant shakes
The strings, the bow, the rosin and music
All put together, they all come alive
The music flows though my mind, and will stick
Encouraging and creating my drive
Playing the violin is in my heart
It soothes my soul so it's time to go start!
-Julia Grace
Summer Busting Out
ReplyDeleteSpring ends and schools close, let it be summer
Kids running and playing from dusk till dawn
Bands start playing with a guitar and drummer
Boys working on the yards beautiful lawn
With boys and girls blistering under the big sun
The beach being a hot spot due to open land
Day by day, week by week go out with fun
Parents and kids looking forward to crazy sand
As summer slows, kids begin to slow down
Young teens start finishing their summer work
Adults and young teens play around in down town
Kids start preparing for school and home work
Summer ends, so kids finish it with a party
Kids must go back to school, and are tardy

Sonnet 2.5 Remixed & Remastered
ReplyDeleteI have been up, down, bound, crowned, poked and around.
I have been through blue choo choo and between.
To get to her I move, creep without sound.
I move around two obese British queens.
I grab the bootleg Pootie Tang movie there.
We robot through clubs like R2-D2.
She loves the colorful care bears.
Our love is no more, it smells doo-doo.
I hate to love her she still got my shirt.
Her momma hated me but I don't care.
Her new boy toy is nothing but a jerk.
I stand there waiting with nothing but work.
I'm a billionaire with a company to start.
I brag to her, run her over with golf cart.
People are not grateful with what they have
ReplyDeletethey forget about hoe lucky they are
buying, spending the seeds of greed are sown
Living above their means is bizarre
Giant McMansions and expensive cars
will it ever stop before they are broke?
Their poor actions will lead them behind bars
Lack of restraint may cause a massive stroke(D)
What's the answer to leading a good life?
Happiness and love good will with others
Ungratefulness leads to a life of strife
let's try harder caring for our brothers
People don't see what they have right in front
After they lose it they'll have to confront

Shopping is the thrill thats like none other
ReplyDeleteThere is no place in the world like the mall
I charge through the mall, to shoes I hover
To save my nice shoes, my friend I do call
Prada, Guess and Gucci I desire
With no income, designer shoes I dream
I move to jewelry I admire
The ring I spotted is now on my team
The mall speaks to me like a melody
Fashion and design is my one calling
When stressed fashion gives me serenity
Shopping causes you to not be lolling
Some may say my one true gift is style
Fashion is my urge and I can't not smile
I wake up each day to see the sun rise
ReplyDeleteIt moves slowly and shines bright with soft grace
The beautiful light blinds my awoken eyes
My mind now shines with your beautiful face
I see your bright warm smile everywhere I look;
Your beautiful hair shines a slight blond red
Your eyes are colorful as a children book
My Heart stops when you are safe in my wings
I can not help but think that I love you
When I think of you I hear the angels sing
You are the one I want forever and true
You may have left me here on this earth alone
But I know that you will always be shown.
The day grow to night gave her a terrible fright
ReplyDeleteA knight rode into protect and serve her
He came in so fast he turned night to light
She curtsied to him and said thank you sir.
Climb on my horse and lets go for a ride
And travel to many far away lands
Stay close to me and do not leave my side
We will stroll through the country hand in hand.
We will live in a castle on a hill
Stroll through the gardens and admire the view
Adventures and sport life will be a thrill
Life together is wonderful and new.
This is life which I am purposing
You will be the queen and I will be king.
Chris Meindl
March begins blossoms open to flowers
ReplyDeleteSummer approaches; more daylight each day
Along with the flowers are spring showers
Flowers have budded by the time of may
Spring a burst of cleanness around so great
From dull-to a rainbow all around you
Its time for a break, we can hardly wait
A wisp of clouds up in the clear sky blue
The golden yellow rays shine from above
We are caught up in the heat of the moment
All so beautiful you see it thereof
All around you can see is fulfillment
The base of the seasons you see is green
Spring is the time of the year its a dream
--Kaitlyn Henderson
Nature is pritty and needs attention.
ReplyDeleteIt needs to be preserved and kept clean.
If you litter you wil get detentsion,
so instesd plant a watermelon of bean.
Unpoluted air helps prevent cancer,
so ride your bike more and stop driving cars.
This will give you muscles like a dancer.
People who polute should be put on Mars.
Reduce, reuse, and recycle your stuff.
Then we will live happily ever after.
You should be thrown off a clif or bluff,
if you never give anyone laughter.
If the planet is good i am happy.
If the planer is bad i am crappy
Liam McNamara
Oh the rain how much you remind me of pain
ReplyDeleteThe sarrow I feel for the sky today
As the smile of the sun fades away
Tomorrow may be the day of his betray
For tomorrow the sun may shine brightly
And the weary drone of rain now from sight
How the sun radiates overhead in might
Shining down on my face in awe delight
Rain pain sun light how they bring me contrast
Through now I see today and in the past
How fleeting and fickle the days now last
And the clouds or sure shadows overcast
For the pain i have gained is lost
I feel the pain has gone away at cost
Michael Holland
While wandering through fallen city streets
ReplyDeleteI recall what did lead me to this place
Past mistakes do burn my soul with their heat
They pain my conscience and distort my face.
In gloom of night I continue my fight
Though none oppose me but my heart and soul
Torn in two I ignite in fits of fright
The wining side can never make me whole
In pieces I still tear myself apart
My own nature is my worst enemy
While falling in the black I break my heart
There’s no light in this maze that I can see
Shall I get on my knees and make amends?
Or in turmoil walk fallen streets again
ROBERT THERRELL
Fire is harh, it burns things down,it hurts me.
ReplyDeleteIt knows no bounds, and it ruins all that it touches, it always heats things up, it must be
important, it lets us see a little bit.
Fire is pretty, it glows in the dark night,
it keeps the creatures of the night away.
It keeps me from getting a fright,
it makes it easy to see the trees that sway.
Fire is unique, it keeps my body warm,
it lets me dose off to sleep in silence,
around it moths and insects like to swarm/
it ravages the forest with violence.
It puts on a massive, glowing light show,
it keeps me in the light, so I don't slow.
~Brandon Rader
Birds sing our song,the wind carries our love.
ReplyDeleteYour kisses touch my wet lips like roses.
Oh will you say my name sweet as a dove.
Big deep warm hugs that make us touch noises.
I stare into your eyes, deep as a sea.
Nights staying up talking till dust breaks.
How are we so far oh how can it be?
Oh baby when you leave me my heart aches.
As i wipe my tears our day will soon come.
A wedding dress so white, just as day light.
Where we'll have our big wedding shurly stun!
A cake towers high, will you take a bite?
Do know that i will forever love you.
Our sweet love perks me up like morning dew.

Sad Sonnet
ReplyDeleteI am confused and mad so very much.
Has our friendship been just a big lie?
All I used to want was your gentle touch
Now I am sad and I just want to cry.
The love that shined in my eyes was wasted
Wasted because I thought you felt the same.
This friendship was the best thing I've tasted,
But it's done now 'cause you were being lame.
I feel like I'm falling in a black hole,
This sadness is overwhelming my heart.
This depression is consuming my soul.
What we had was good, a great piece of art.
I want to sing our song once again
Like we did when we were just friends...
~Hannah McKeel
Imagination runs free through your mind
ReplyDeletebringing you into an amazing place
have you ever wondered what you will find?
You can even go into outer space.
Thoughts are more powerful than you think positive thoughts can lead you to success.
Whereas negative thoughts can really stink.
Although it can't get you extra recess.
Some thoughts can lead to great discoveries
Make sure you can prove that your thought is great
You might need to make a recovery
Just don't take too long or else you'll be late
So go and tell the world your great idea.
You might even go to South Korea.
~Katie Cumbia
My favorite player
ReplyDeleteLike a flash of lightning know his story.
Dunking on Kobe and kevin with ease.
his amazing skills bring him much glory.
making all the shots a like a quickened breeze.
having+ a vertical higher than most.
roaring fans while he throws gold-bond in air.
leading thirty points a game like a ghost.
not even at peak all his games are fair.
even the great Dwight and Wade do beware.
that their legacies may fall and crumble.
this mountain of a man gives them a scare.
his crack is louder than thunder's rumble.
most valued player to the greatest game.
my favorite player is Lebron James.
Sit down and relax as the storm passes
ReplyDeleteLooking at the skies surprised through my window
You climax, then the world fades to ashes
Living in a life to fight, it's unreal though
You dream life, but when you wake up, its bliss
Looking at the shadows of mere nothings
Fearing to close your eyes, but start to drift
Into the abyss of candled stuffing
There is no meaning of this crazy place
The thought of emotion is a riddle
Puzzled in a world without any face
The chance of hope to be home turn little
Grab the heart of life, now open your eyes
Into the new world of wandering lies
So where do you go when you enter death?
ReplyDeleteDo you leave and enter eternal rest?
When will you take your last and final breath?
Death will always be your eternal pest.
Like a fate that we will never escape.
Death stalkes us like it's prey in the night.
We need for someone to help us reshape.
How long mus we wait for a sign of light?
How can we live if were going to die.
Is there enough faith to get passed deaths grip?
No one wants to be buried a huge lie.
But if there's no happiness, we may slip.
Gently, gently we will begin to fade
In a deep, dark abyss is where we find shade.
Jacob Jones
The last couple of weeks have been crazy.
ReplyDeleteAbout five projects due within a day.
It didn't help that I was really lazy.
But it has finally all gone away.
The only thing left is out report card.
I hope my English grade isn't too bad.
Because then I would feel like a retard.
Because then I would feel extremely sad.
Struggling to get an assignment done.
Hopefully I can get it in on time.
Sprinting for the finish, a desperate run.
Trying hard to make a lot of words rhyme.
Well now my sonnet is finally done.
Now I can go and have a lot of fun.
The simplest flower shifting in the breeze,
ReplyDeleteThe grass so green crumples beneath our feet,
The brightest sunlight filters trhough the trees,
We both hike on in hopes to someday meet.
I am the red in the rose growing up,
You are the green and the white in the thorn,
I can fill the void within your heart's cup,
You've been with me since the day I was born.
Happiness inside my heart comes from you.
I smile when you look at me today.
Although the days I spend with you are few,
I'll stay beside you, I will never stray.
I'll follow you to the end of the earth.
For you are one that is of matchless worth.
~Athene Hedden, 4th
Sunny summer days are great for a walk
ReplyDeletea day for games like hide and seek or tag
to sit an a bench with a friend an d talk
or packing snacks for yourself in a bag
summer is great to swim a cold pool
you can have a large water baloon fight
your can have a popscicle that is cool
or catch a lightning bug in the dark
in summer you can play catch with a freind
or you and a friend can climb a tall tree
and you wll hate when the day comes to an end
and people run from every bee they see
I love the summer time because its fun
to spend the day in the very hot sun
~Greg Trykowski
Love is like a beautiful summer's day,
ReplyDeleteThe warmth and the feeling of being free,
Life is just like a long joyous play,
So much of this life that belongs to me,
Saying that others will be arising,
For fear can not take in that aching test,
Just as some others will be despising,
For it is your time to take up your own quest,
As in the center of all that is said,
Make your knowledge known for time has come,
The ones that have walked before are now dead,
I should warn you this would be hard for some,
Oh the glorious day that it will be,
Don't worry about that for you will see.
-Addison Helms
Do we have to wear this dumb uniform
ReplyDeleteWe have to keep shirts in and belts on
Right now we all need to sign a reform
If they don't let us we'll sit on the lawn
What is so wrong with wearing normal clothes
We do our work, that should be what matters
We look all the same like Wonder bread loathes
It makes me so mad like the mad hatter
I guess its not such a big of a deal
It probably could be a lot worse
I am just simply saying bow I feel
It wont kill me and I ride in a hearse
I guess i should stop my bad complaining
Oh look instead of sun it is raining
What more is the thing we call history,
ReplyDeleteDates, facts, time, legacy or is it more,
Cultures, traditions a grand mystery,
Empires, dynasties, kingdoms galore.
What is history but struggles and war,
The skeptics question "Is it all worthwhile,"
But what more is life than a chance to soar,
We live, we learn, and we reconcile.
The glorious land we call the future,
Will soon grow old and be known as the past,
Our thought and actions will be more mature,
And we the old grasp history at last.
The time will come when we are the teachers,
And our children will treat us like creepers.

Nothing compares to walking through the gate
ReplyDeleteYou know it's the start to a brand new day
Getting ready for your chance at the plate
Finally, a chance to just swing away.
Finally, the time comes for the first pitch
You're ready for your very first home run.
It's down the middle and you have a hitch
This one's going to be going going gone.
Giving it your all, it flies off the bat.
It goes up and up then it starts to fall.
The crowd lets out a sad sigh knowing that
The ball had only made it to the wall.
Your hope for a home run turns to rubble,
But you can't complain with that nice double.
Mica Clark
ReplyDeleteWe're the new Romeo and Juliet
For the love we share is not accepted
We face many hardships, but do not fret
Strong, we'll be when our love is rejected
Unnoticed,not caught, like a small white cloud
The people against us, search for our love
But to their dismay, we cannot be found
Our doubts drift away, in the sky like doves
Sunshine and moonlight, we light up the world
A kaleidoscope of color, you are
A connection to love, you are the cord
But you are so near, and feel yet so far
Forever and always is what we say
Stay forever, don't be a memory
From the welcome of the sun shinning sky,
ReplyDeleteDown to the stars shinning so bright at night.
All day long though no one seems to hear me.
I breathe in and out, the wind in my ears.
The creatures around me stop to listen.
I sing beautifully for you to hear.
It is wonderfully sweet and peaceful.
God helped me to understand where i am.
He put me here for a reason.
Across from me i see a blue dolphin.
Swimming so fast i can barely see it.
The sky aboveme tells me that its time,
to spread my wings out so i can fly high.
I think to myself with a sweet little sigh.
Love who you are not what you want to be
ReplyDeletefor love is the happiness of thy self
you are beatiful oh why can't you see
those who copy value themselves
Only you can find what thy truely needs
Don't you worry about false exception
you are worth more than a hand full of beeds
you should let go of your self obsession
just breathe the fresh air and fly like a bird
birds fly high so think highly of yourself
don't worry about what you think, saw, heard
just love apprecitate live for yourself
for your worth the wait and more than you know
Victoria Hayes
If there was one place I would rather be,
ReplyDeleteWith rolling hills and majestic highland.
The sight of this place fills my heart with glee.
I would really rather live in Scotland.
Scotland is a land of a thousand thrills.
I've traveled from Glasgow to Aberdeen.
I've walked over hundreds of grassy hills.
There is no counting the sights I have seen.
I've explored the streets of Edinborough.
There isn't a place you can't reach by train.
I've walked the streets of beautiful Glasgow.
I've spent hours watchingthe pouring rain.
With all of the things this land has to give,
It's clear this is where I would like to live.
Summer is close and it's calling my name
ReplyDeleteI love the weather and warm airy days
During the summer your life's not the same
Winding through summer months is like a maze
You smell the chlorine and warm salty air
Hot sticky days and bright green leafy trees
Stylish sunglasses that keep away glares
I love when my hair just blows in the breeze
In the summer you hang out until dark
Always and forever hanging with friends
In July you see fireworks and sparks
Looking at the sky it just doesn't end
So don't forget to always party hard
The best memories start in your front yard

My sonnet is titled
ReplyDeleteThe Journey to stardom
Music is a part of me all the time
most of what I know comes from music theory
Up and up is where I go , life's a climb
music can make me so sad and cheery
Its an emotional rollercoaster
I cry then I laugh then I cry again
When I succeed I am not a boaster
But if I couldn't sing I'd go insane
Hard work is the key to my own success
In the end I will prosper and go far
Invest in me and you'll never regret
I am dedicated to be a star
All the while music's been my destiny
music's always brought out the best of me

Faces at a fair are full of such glee
ReplyDeleteCotton candy and food all through the day
Making excitment truly run free
Fills on with happiness that's long to stay
faces at a zoo are full of wide smiles
Tigers and lions the children enquire
Children from schools arrive in single file
They still exclaim even after they tire.
Faces at a school might be a large frown
Tests and quizzes you might have complete
Throught the dat don't let them get you down
Great new friends you might happen to just meet
Faces in a crowd explain what is true
Some places you go could stink or astound you
The action of the heart is told through love.
ReplyDeleteIts a wonderful thing but can be dumb.
Some say it is gracefull like a white dove.
Love can blow up your face just like a white dove.
Love can be like a rollercoaster ride.
Love has up's and down's and can turn around.
When you are inlove you are side-by-side.
You will know you're inlove when he is found.
True love is a wonderful thing to hold.
Love is something you will not leave behind.
When you inlove you know your heart is sold.
The act of love will make some people blind.
When you have love it will make you smile.
Love makes same feel like a crocodile.

Lemonade
ReplyDeleteWhen life gives you lemons, what would you do?
Do you think you would throw them at a fool
Or would you just make lemonade for two?
When life gives you problems, it's so un cool.
You can't just solve a problem with a talk
You need to believe it in your big heart.
If you don't believe, just go take a walk.
When you believe it shows you are so smart.
When you go through problems, make lemonade.
It's really easy just don't walk away
Hear your heart say, then you will be unplayed.
All in the end will just be so okay.
Make lemonade for the best of your life
Make lemonade for the best of you wife.
I was playing a good game yesterday
ReplyDeleteI was not well but that would change
A friend came over and started to play
I started to win but he left my range
My friend was good; he was the best of all
His speed was fast and his skill was to great
Compared to him my gaming skills were small
I fear that, for my comeback it's to late
I though it was over, though I was done
The end was near but I had one last card
He was very good but he had not yet won
I knew to win I would have to work hard
I dug down deep; I had a mistake to mend
I worded hard and won and the game ended
Wesley Boehm
In every perfection one mane lies
ReplyDeleteIn mast of life troubles in which we guess
Greed and fame leads to their demise
Because they did better that there best
Do you think you will be a big success
And you think you will live your life with joy
In the end you end up a bad mess
And form all the lawsuits you need convoy
But if you play your job through your life fair
Life will be honest and good to you will
And if you lye the price is hard to bear
At the end there will be no soul to sell
So if there is any lesson learned today
It is that if you cheat in life you will pay.

All the way turned up! All the way turned up!
ReplyDeleteWe cannot stop partying, partying
We walk in the club with no ID, yup
Yeah! we walk past the big guy whos guarding
With all the pretty girls we dance the night away
We take our shots and drink our burning drinks
Oh! From eleven till four the next day
We wake up and all we can do is blink
We awaken dragging ourselves to work
We hate it there cuz theres nothin to do
Break time! We go to the lunchroom and jerk
Oh no! Its our boss. "Back to work!" Boo Hoo
After work we get ready to go back
The girls, the booze ,and of course it's pitch black
I enjoy reading all the books i can
ReplyDeletei read scary happy and sad books
there might be a character named Jan Dan
or maybe a character named Rook Brooks
you never know what waits for you inside
the many books you can read look and see
but be carful some books may make you cry
but some books will make you smile with glee
we should all pick up a cook and enjoy
the time we have to enjoy by ourselves
reading a book can bring everyone joy
so get a book and grab it off the shelve
we should all take time to read a good story
even if the story is so gory
I love nature and everything in it.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it can be peaceful and quiet.
Other times it's very noisy and lit.
Have you ever stood there and was silent?
And listen to all the noises out there?
Maybe you would see a bird or a snake.
And if you are lucky, maybe a bear.
But some things are scary and make you shake.
Have you ever seen ther beautiful sights?
Waterfalls, blue bird's nest, or animals.
OR you could sit in the grass, it won't bite.
Though you would probably not see brown bulls.
Just go walk around and act like a mime.
Going outside is always worth my time.

He jumps along the stationary platforms,
ReplyDeleteUp and up he jumps along the levels.
As he jumps, seeing bugs makes his head storm.
They all remind me of Fruity Pebbles.
I hat ethat my friend can beat my high score.
Since he owns the game he earns more points.
This challenge leaves me without any bore.
Playong too much brings pain to all my joints.
The more I play the better I get.
Sometimes when I play, I do very well,
And when I play and my bad score is set,
I can't wait to leave once I hear the bell.
And yet I still love my great Doodle Jump.
And I'll knock out my friends score with a bump.

Music beating in my ears, all i hear
ReplyDeleteOn your mp3, ipod, or CD
I hear the music, as i stand right here
So many songs to choose from, just pick thee
Whatever you like, country, rap, rock, or pop
Millions of songs and artist for you to choose
Just pick a song already! Your about to pop!
The music is beating in my ears like ooz
So many songs to pick, what do you choose?
A lot of different songs on websites
The headphones stick to your ears like glue
Make a fast download, and go for a hike
Everyone listens to music, when they get a chance
Why dont you listen now you might just dance
For them that do not know; may they see the light.
ReplyDeleteThat it will set you free to be and be.
It does not bring pain; and it will not spite.
Shines like nothing else, so that you may see.
Where would we go if their was no pathway.
I look to only see something standing there.
He appears to be calling me to stay.
I haven't felt such a great prence here.
This I can't explain but to be amazed.
Feeling in comfort like nothing else near.
Something that is heavy and gives a daze.
Who can this be that is far, but so there.
The great and mighty warrior that stands.
Nothing the less, a powerful king stands.Daniel Taverna
Best Friends
ReplyDeleteWhen we are together we always smile
She will never be like any other
she knows how to get me through the tough miles
she could never be replaced by another
my best friend is Morgan she is so cool
we are best friends till’ the end, we are tight
when we are together we act like fools
we get along so much we never fight
when together we always laugh so much
she has left her fingerprint on my heart
and it was left with just one single touch
she is so sweet she always does her part
I will be here for her no matter what
Were best friends and we are not afraid to strut

Llamas
ReplyDeleteLlamas are nice and the are full of joy
In my opinion llamas make great pets
The best llamas will want to play with toys
Other llamas need to go to the vet
Llamas eat different grasses and hay
The llamas at the zoo may spit on you
Some llamas will ignore you some say hey
Some llamas say nothing but they don’t moo
Some llamas will make you fall in deep love
Llamas like to be fed three times a day
Some llamas will ask you for a big hug
Almost every llama likes to go play
Almost every one will love you back
It is just now much you ride on their back

My Fear:
ReplyDeleteThrough my headphones I hear faint murmuring,
Of my annoyed and my excited peers,
But all of it is a mild thundering,
And through my headphones, I’m faced with my fears.
My fear of being lost and all alone,
Which I fear I’m already too far lost,
My heart frozen and cold, hard as stone,
Waiting for someone to wipe off the frost.
Fear that all my dreams are not worth saving,
Wandering around in the cold hard rain,
Wishing I could once again be dreaming,
Dreaming that I am rid of all the pain.
But as it is, the shadows are so long,
And everything seems to be going wrong.
