Inauguration Poem 3

As the new light dawns on a new day
We welcome a new leader in a new way.
He brings us understanding and hope
Because he has the experience to cope.
With the problems we inherit from our history,
He brings a calm style that is like a mystery.
Not everything was perfect in the past,
But we know bad times won’t last.
We stand together strong,
We feel that we belong.
We will work together to find new success,
We’ll play life like a game of chess.
We will rize to the star spangled banner

The Mysterious treehouse 4

There was a happy family, says the huge house
with the fancy furniture and a gorgeous garden;

There was a happy child, says the tree house
with the rustic ladder inviting you into the land of imaginary adventures;
She was a loved child, says the handmade doll and
the hand carved rocking chair up in the tree house
The doll was tossed on the ground, says the button eye
that was missing, lost in the world
Something went wrong, says the doll’s sad sad face
The girl had regrets, says the button, thread and needle

Ode to Snow 5

I am looking up in the sky
And I see the little miracles dancing down
Who is the choreographer?
One of the snowflakes lands on my hand
So perfect, so symmetrical, so graceful
A real work of art
Who is the artist?
Now there is a pile of snow
As fluffy as a bunny
I walk and listen to the music
Of crunchy snow like bread crust
Who is the composer?

Epistolary Poem

Dear Jack, I loved coming to your School

When I was a boy I was as excited as a dog

I was just like you I loved eating the brownies

Always with a pencil Like a rabbit loves to run

writing poems too your poems were awesome

I wanted to be heard Your as smart as an owl

Not laughed at and not mocked Thank you for inviting me

I wanted to have a friend From 6
And poems always worked Mr. Walter Dean Myers

Love that tree

Love that tree I know it’s there to listen
Like my mama loves me It's there to understand
It knows my biggest secrets
I said I love that tree
Like my mama loves me I wouldn't dare to tell

Love to see the changes of picture I said it knows my biggest secrets
As the seasons come and go
I wouldn't dare to tell
Love to see the changes of picture
Love that tree
As the tree continues to grow Like that tree loves me
I said I love that tree

Like that tree loves me 7

it's hard to be a rat 9

It's hard to be a rat
You’re always despised
It's hard to be a rat
You're always recognized
Zing goes the trap
Whoosh runs the cat
They scream, they run, they chase
It's hard to be a rat

Hero

Some superheroes wear a cape They wrinkles your face
But some are near you when you choke on a grape And hide when you're mad and make mistakes
Behind every cloud is the Sun Heroes create our nation
Treasure every loved one We just need some determination
Soon coronavirus will disappear When it's all done we will celebrate with some fun
And you will have nothing to fear

If only you knew what wonderful things Smiles can do
