My Dad (Erick)
Jackie

As the wind flew
past us we ran
in the woods, we played
at the Beach, as the time
past we ate and watched tv.
We talked and walked.
I loved him so, but
the time went by too fast
and he was gone in a
flash. I cryed and whined
tears running down my face.
It was sad now
those days are gone.
I miss him so much.

Just A Dream
by Kelesy

One night I was in bed,
when I had that one strange dream.
I lay in bed just dreaming ,
of that one unusual place,
where ghosts, bats, birds, fish, and pretty fairies live.
What an odd place it was,
with creepy houses,
big green trees,
clear blue pounds,
and flower filled meadows.
I flew with the ghosts and bats,
I sang with the birds
I swam with the fish,
in the clear blue water,
and I danced with the pretty fairies,
until the sun woke me up.

Why
by Kelsey Acker

Why do we all have friends?
I think that is part of life.
Why do dogs run?
To catch their prey.
Why am I alive?
God created me.
Why can't pigs fly?
I do not know, do you?
Why are there trees?
That is part of nature.
Why do I miss my mom?
She has been with me my whole life.
Well, that is WHY!!
