Student Poetry by Madison B,

My Cello

My cello's sound is beautiful
Sonorous and deep
It feels like it was made to lull me to sleep

As I pull my bow
Across the shining strings,
I'm pulled into the music's flow
And spread musical wings

My life is a blur
But sound pulls through
like a cat's silky purr
Or the clink of shiny shoes.

My Cat Shadow

He moves through the dark
like a shadow
He was named after
that gauzy black reflection

It matches the shade of his fur
Black as shade
He's really sweet
Not shadowy at all

He isn't just a cat
or a pet
He's my brother
He's my friend.

Disappointments

All of life's
tiny,
small
minuscule disappointments

They seem to
tend to
build up
build up

You have to
let it out
sometimes.
It's okay

Magical Meadow

Little little
Leap and twirl
Little, Little
Fairy girl

Little, little
Dance amongst the flower
Little, little
For hours and hours

Little, little
I have a habit
Little, little
Of hopping like a rabbit.

Little, little
Magical meadow
Little, little
Peace and love

Friends

We're friends
She's my first friend
Best friends
Not worst friends

Cool friends
Cold friends
Kid friends
Not old friends.

Together we cope
No matter what the weather
We won't go separate ways I hope
We'll be friends forever.

Life by Tyniece

Life is like a camera
you have to focus
on what's important
and capture the good things.

Because, if you wait too long
the perfect picture can slip away.
You have to wait and be patient
because good things develop from the bad

And if the picture tears
you piece it back together
And, all the pictures together
create your life!


Friends 

A friend is a flower
a rose to be exact
or maybe like a drawbridge
that never comes unlatched

A friend is like a chair
that will forever hold you up
or maybe like an owl
wise and beautiful

A friend is always there
whenever you need them
Oh, where would we be
if we didn't have a friend?

Happiness 

Happiness is a cup of tea
we spend time just you and me
We sit and watch the clear blue sky
Hot air balloons passing by

Happiness is when you're on could 9
you're so glad you could reach the sky
You wait and wait
for this is happiness it's just like love.

There are many words
to describe this feeling
But I like to call it
Happiness.


Love

Love
The kind that makes you smile wide
makes you swell up with joy and pride
the kind of love that we should all idolize

The kind that makes you smile wide
it makes you glad and never want to feel sad.
The kind of love that we should all idolize
the love to hold someone in your arms.

It makes you glad and never want to feel sad
makes you swell up with joy and pride
the love to hold someone in your arms
Love

Beautiful Day

Beautiful Day
There's not a cloud today
Just a sky of blue
as the sun shines bright

There's not a cloud today
As you walk down the street
As the sun shines bright
it feels so new

As you walk down the street
Just a sky of blue
It feels so new
A Beautiful Day
