Three Student Poems

Life by Suzy A.

 

People who put you down

Are just bumps in the road

To make steps

To achieve higher goals

throughout life

 

People who put you down

Are just the steps

To getting tougher

And tougher

Throughout life

 

People who put you down

Are just lessons

That make you smart and let you

Forget about it and move on

Throughout life.

When I Read By Savannah P.

When I read

the ideas and pictures

flow through my mind

quickly, like a river

carrying leaves to the End.

When I read

I ignore all that surrounds me

I plunge into the story

it's like I'm there

like I'm the main character

When I read 

what I don't realize 

is that I'm not there

or that there could be

an actual world to live in.

The Book by Savannah P.

Once in the moonlight,

I saw something that was shinning bright.

I stepped closer to take a look,

The thing I saw looked like a book.

The book was full of many things, 

When I touched it, I started to sing.

A song so beautiful, I started to weep,

When it stopped, I fell asleep.

Sad, as it may seem,

What I saw was just a dream.
