Wrong  Spring

By Queenie, Age 10

Spring is here.
but the trees are bare.
Birds don’t sing
and they’re not flying.
Instead they’re sleeping.
With still wings.
Snowmen are still alive,
and bees are in their hive.
There’s dark clouds in the sky,
ready to hail on I.
Is spring going to be like this all year long?
Oh, my calendar’s wrong.

Colors

By Ayoka, Age 10

Yellow

I don’t feel so well-oh.
I don’t know who to tell-oh.
I stink and I smell-oh
my barf is yellow.

Untitled

By Quadir W, Age 7

Love is liking another person.
Foxes are furry.
Games are fun.
Kings are powerful.
Socks keep your feet warm.
I came from my mom.
Rocks are hard.
Shocks really hurt.

Rhyme Time

By  Qadir M.

I got that money, that bling
I got everything
People call me the king
A king that can rap and sing

I got a house made of gold
right on top of these hills
I never had to pay a dime
So I never got those bills

I love the spring rain
When I’m going to Maine
And when I go to Spain
I take a train

Want me to tell you
When push comes to shove
I don’t run, I fly
like a little white dove

I got a little orange fox
Which lives in a box
He chases bunnies that are hopping
and comes with me when I’m shopping

This is a Rhyme
That comes from the heart
This is my time.
To bring people closer and not rip them apart
