ReplyDeleteSpring
ReplyDeleteSpring is here
and the sun is out
the birds are chirping
and the bees are humming
the sun is high and bright
as it warms the earth
with its light
spring is here
Wwhen I sometimes talk I speak the truth. But sometimes truth hurts
ReplyDeletei love your poem nestor
DeleteI'm commenting on the first poem, and I think it means that sometimes life can be like a fairytale. By the way I forgot to put this comment with my poem.
ReplyDeleteDerek and Meredith
ReplyDeletewe were onces soulmates we met at a special place in seattle
who found out i was your boss at the hospital
who were just a intern i was just a attending your teacher and boss
you were really supparise when you found out about that i was your teacher
we are in love that day when we met in seattle washition
we are like a fairy tale like prince charming and cinderalla
we were in love for a while until the wife came back from new york
you were all upset about that i had a wife you say to me pick me choose me love me
but i was a fool to choose my wife instead of you
you were all so upset at me for choosing my wife instead of you
i was thinking that i should choose you instead of her
you were more nice
[Hate of Highschool]
DeleteHighschool's cool,
but it can sometimes be Crul.
Some people start drama,
most of the time it comes back like karma.
Now most of you know me,im not like any other girl,
but alot of people say stuff that puts me in a whirl.
I may be crazy, but never insane,
because I do have a brain, and I know what your sayin'.
And in highschool you go on one "Date"
After that all you will get is "HATE"!
Highschool can sometimes be great,
it doesnt allways have to be about who you hate,
And who you date.
Its your Golden years,
So dont live in fear,
think Win-Win
dont ever give in.

"Car Show"
ReplyDeleteYou see them all over the street.
The riders will be cleaning their seat.
You see yourself in the chrome grill.
All kids can bearly stand still.
I can the controls on the steering wheel.
All these cars i would steal.
I love this poem Chris. I can tell you really put your heart into it. =)
DeleteLove Sam
something like that.
Deleteyeh!
i like your poem it is really good
DeleteYes something like that
Deletethat is as good they will ever look
DeleteWallowing in the warmth of your smile
ReplyDeleteAnd the angels in your laugh
I feel your carefullness
And your oh so cute style
I don’t know why god blessed me
With such a friend as you
But it makes my life complete
And very happy too
The way you always know me
And exactly what to do
When my loneliness gets me down
You make me happy, not blue(:
The way you see me
And look into my eyes
I don’t have to hide my feelings
And put on a disguise
To share your tender heart
The warmness of your smile
The courage of your wisdom
For these I’d walk for miles
To be thinking of a time
When you’d no longer be there
For me to peek upon in felicity
My feelings with you to share
Is not acceptable to me
Because in my life
Is where I want you to be
Always and forever.
Wow thats a very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very sweet peom. I would add another very, but then people would think i'm kidding.
Deletesweet Katie thats cute
DeleteSometimes that is how teens feel when their parents do not give them a chance to speak. It also makes us feel like an unnecessary freak if we can not speak or you even let us stand tall. At one point in life you will not have us at all. Someone up above us gave us the all the talking parts, now all everyone else has to do is open up their hearts.
ReplyDeleteThis poem is by me Samantha H. Turner and it came frome the heart. But here's one that came from a book I found:
'USE IT OR LOSE IT'
By: Mike Dooley
When you think
a brand new thought,
something comes alive.
And when you think
this brand new thought,
it will strive
to find its place
in time and space,
to reach the light of day.
So think your new thought all the time
to help it find its way!
NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deletei think this is a very butiful poem sam. it is very touching.

Delete"The Rose That Grew from Concrete"
ReplyDeleteDid youhear about the rose that grw from a crack in the concrete.....
Proving nature's laws wrong it learned to walk without having feet.....
Funny it seems but by keeping its dreams it learned to breathe fresh air.....
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else even cared!!

Delete"My Mother."
ReplyDeleteBy: Mishonda Jackson
She tucks me in at night
She holds me tight when i'm feeling a fright
She comforts me when i'm feeling down
I don't know where I would be without her
She is the reason why I'm here right now
I think of all I put her through and think of how she could've said she is through
I love my mother with all my heart
She makes me mad
She makes me sad
But that's only the times I'm being bad
My mom is the only one I trust even when we fuss
I love my mom she's the best
OMG Mishonda your poem is realllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyy G O O D!!!!!!!

DeleteMY Heart Sings...
ReplyDeleteIn the song of life, all lyrics need a melody.
You are the lyric and you are the melody.
You are the lyric of my heart and of my soul.
The beauty of the rose, speaks a lyric of love.
Love, speaks a lyric of you.
The silent lyric of goodness, echoes from within you.
My heart, speaks the lyric of love...to only you.
Let the words...the lyric...that bind, pass between us.
Let the lyric, of you...of me...be as one.
A million words I can speak of you and the lyrics
would be the same...I love you now. I always will
this poem is really good i like it
Deleteaww , I like it (:
DeleteAwwww I really like your poem:)
DeleteClosed Room
ReplyDeleteOne closed room to sit around and
think. To think about life, to
think about the pain.
The pain that hurts, the pain
that comes from dealing with him.
A closed room full of memories.
Fun memories, bad memories, painful
memories and memories that want seem
to fade away.
A closed room full of a fist load of
things that I don't regret one bit.
This room is my heart. A heart
full of things I wouldn't change.
Awhh
Delete- awhhh Ty Ty , you in a closed room !
DeleteI love you .*
Love Your Poem:)
Delete^~~~~~^ winter ~^^^^^~
ReplyDeleteA flake of snow in flurry thro’ the air
Had landed as a kiss upon my cheek:
A secret message, just for me to share;
To take to heart but never dare to speak
About other eyes
Your open feelings – distant though they are.
And so, upon your lips, my own surprise
A flake of snow returned from me afar
I Was Meant for YouThe sun, it did shine
ReplyDeletethe day you came into my life
and everything that was wrong
became all right
everything that was upside down
turned around
And I smiled because finally
my heart had found its home
and I didn’t need anyone to tell me
that you are where I belong
I knew, I just knew
that it was you
And the morning sun it would rise
and dance through the happiness
that shone in my eyes
And all my dreams they did come true
every second that was spent with you
And every wish I had ever made
came to life that one fateful day
And I smiled because finally
my life and everything made perfect sense
and I didn’t need someone to tell me
that this was love or what it meant
I knew, I just knew
I was meant for you
People say I'm shady
ReplyDeleteSo I try to speak My mind
I turn out to be stuck up
I Try to express My thoughts
I turn out to be deep
What to do Without being Judged
So I close the doors to My thoughts
And stay Shut....
Though Im Missing you (:
ReplyDeleteWho would've known, that you had to go
But so suddenly, so fast
How could it be, that a sweet memory worthy would
Be all that we've have plan
Now that you're gone, every day I go on
But life's just not the same
I'm so empty inside, and my tears I can't hide
But I'll try, I'll try to face the pain

DeleteOnly You
ReplyDeleteEvery time you look at me
chills go down my spine
you send butterflies
through my stomach
you put love in my heart
You say sorry but hurt me
again I can't take that pain
it's best you go you make
me rather be alone
i love this poem it is really good sometimes i feel that way

ReplyDeletelife can be hard
ReplyDeletelife can be easy
life can be sad
life can be glad
but it only matters to your mind
Missing someone isn't about how long it's been since you seen them or the amount of time since you last talk. It's about that very moment when you're doing something and you wish that they were right here with you. I LOVE you and MISS you !
ReplyDeleteMy Bestfriend
ReplyDeleteYou're stupid. You fail. You're wierd.
You're not perfect.BUT. That's okay.I'm like that,too. We laugh at the randomest things. You know my ugliest side. Even though we disagree sometimes, we never fight. When I'm sad, you were always there to make sure I'm okay. Thanks for being there for me. I LOVE YOU !
No matter what happens,
ReplyDeleteNo matter what comes out of your mouth;
it can be good,
or it can be bad.
It can be a lie,
or it can be the truth.
It can be a secret,
or it can be your fears.
It can be love,
or it can be heart break.
We should not fear,
of our worlds,
for they are not to blame.
It's the thought of what,
might be said or done,
that's the one to blame.
As all the goes by,
ReplyDeleteI wonder about the world and sigh.
This is a poem that only has only two lines and always rhymes called a couplet
" I wish.. "
ReplyDeleteI was only two when you came along,
I don't remember nothing at all,
If you were here we tell each other everything,
I want to hear you say " your my role model, "
We will have matching outfits,
Giggle and tell each other stories,
Play hide and seek together,
Help each other out on everything,
Watch something together everyday,
Tell you " I hate you , but I love you so much ,"
Tell you " Your my best friend,"
Get matching necklaces,
Go places together,
Push each other around,
Tell on each other,
Draw on each other,
Sleep together,
Make each other feel better when one of us is down,
Tell each other who were crushing on,
Play soccer together,
Cook together,
Make our room look crazy,
Go to parties together,
Tell each other how we look,
Run together,
I wish you didn't have to go,
But God thought it was best for me and you,
One day will reunite,
Tell each other how we been in years,
I visit you on your birthday,
bring you flowers and bear,
Saying " Baby sis your in a better place and I miss you dearly, "
You'll be 12 next month,
Mother misses you dearly and I do too.<3
Even if your not here your my number one best friend Ruth..

"My Babyg."
ReplyDeleteShes my best friend, and my other half.
No matter what, we always laugh.
Everywhere I am, she goes too.
You dont know how much weve been through.
I can count on her everyday,
she always helps me through the pain.
Her name is babyg, and so is mine.
She is definetly my partner in crime.<3

DeleteDON'T JUDGE
ReplyDeleteThe girl we all make fun of and laugh at goes home and gets abused but who knew, she has no friends and doesn't talk to anyone here.
The smart boy that everyone calls a nerd and throws stuff at, he has no home he stays in a shelter crying him self to sleep.
So why judge you don't have a clue what they are going through.
Love...?
ReplyDeletewalking tall, head high, is this me?
no smell of fear or even misery
that's me on the outside the one you see every day
but the one on the inside is the one you don't see
on the inside I cry from time to time
to be without you seems like a crime
the laughs we had, the tears we shared
the love we showed, the passion we cared
and our love was as delicate as wine
even though you slowly drifted away
in my heart you filled space
joy, happiness, peace, shine
those where the four signs
that true love will always be fine<3
Great poems, everyone! And I love the positive feedback you are giving each other, too!!!
ReplyDeleteTwin Love
ReplyDeleteIn a world where they make ipods and canoes, Somehow I managed to meet the people who made
both of you.
You were my best friends and I always confused your faces, until one of you got buzzed by
one of Angie's tazers.
You slipped and fell and of course hit your face and that day was a bad day because someone
was already spraying you with mace.
I always thought that the ugliest one of you were cute, Until you put your voice on mute.
You did not talk to me for days and days, until your brother said you where moving away.
You were my favorite twin; we dated for two months and half an hour since then. And I
thought it was a win.
But you moved and packed everything away.
You know what sucks? you did not say good bye and you're moving back today!
I can't wait to see your face when you see me,
Holding your best friend's hand as a background on my pc.
-Samantha
