Two Admirers

0
by Shannon Mayes aged 14

I sit and I lie
The boys next to me
Stare into my eyes
Admirers I can see

One is handsome
An athlete or a jock
They flirt and fail
Nerds he so rudely mocks

The other is nice
Buried in a book
I can see why
He is called the jock a crook

They both have talents
But there is one I must choose
They smile and pass
One I couldn’t possibly lose

The nerd, he does
Everything so great
I guess this is
The one and only Fate

Burning Love

My heart is on fire
I must have you
You are my love forever
You are all I desire

Cupidity of love
I sing and I smile
Oh bring me your heart
So beautiful like a dove

I long for you
My heart burns for you
It catches on fire
I can’t wait another year or two

Come here baby
Hold my hand
Have a romantic dinner by the candlelight
A little tired maybe

True Love

by H.T.Y.FerFernando aged 14

True love is a feeling
This feeling can never end.
There energy is more powerful
It is like a universe
My love is over the hills,
over the trees,
over the bushes,
over the buildings,
more than the bridges
In the universe of true love
the feeling is worth it
Over the houses,
over the rivers
and there are more than live in fishes
True love is worth it
more than all the animals
that live in universe
and in my life
true love is worth it
True love never dies
True love never ends
This feeling is trustworthy .

As the Crow Flies

over a hill
over a tree
over the bush
with a bumblebee
over the road
over the grass
over the school
and an ongoing class
over the city
over the town
over the circus
and its goofy old clown
over the river
over the lake
over the bakery
baking fresh cake
over the farm
over the zoo
over the clouds
through the sky so blue
over the church
over the bridge
over the cliff
and its towering ridge
over the skyscrapers
next to the planes
along the track
and next to the trains
through the forest
onto an oak
nearby
hear a frog croak
up on the branch
there’s no more brick
but in the nest
a little brown chick

My Furry Friend

My furry friend is the one that can help
He is a four legged friend I can count on
He is the one who won’t say a word or a secret
I treat him like a brother
I know he will help me in life
I know he loves me but
I LOVE HIM MORE

The Clown Was Upside Down

by Elsa Murphy aged 11

Once there was a funny clown,
who liked sitting upside down
and then he liked to read a book
and then he gave a funny look
and then he looked
at a funny book
He really, really took a look.

Love is my favorite thing
it is the best thing

when you are sad
love is there for you

so who do you love
the person you share a life with

First Kiss

by Roseanna aged 10

I just had my first kiss
He nearly put up a fist
Then never saw me
And left to leave me be

We went to meet up
To have a chat
Talked about family things
He had a beautiful smile
One crazy hairstyle
We fell in love and stayed with style

My Soulmate

There is nothing on Earth more beautiful to me
than your smile…
No sound sweeter than your laughter…
No pleasure greater than holding you in my arms…
The moment I look into your eyes I know
instantly that I
could never live without you…
In this life and the next, you’re my eternal
happiness…

with cold from far
a shivering tree

can you give
warm water to flowers?
