Pam Schafer Brown - Spanish Class
Everett High School, 2/20/04
Students were asked to write a 7 minute poem.
I don't know why he makes her cry. He lies and cheats and passes here
by, but still she tries to reserve what they have, a few years, a few tears.
No on know why, why she goes back even though he does the things he does.
But she says "It's all love, but love doesn't heart you.
--Adanya B.
You told me a like, that made me cry, you treated me bad, now I am sad.
I though it would all be okay, until today. You did things with her that
led to more; I just can't take it anymore. You're selfish and
mean you make me want to scream! I wish this was just a bad dream. Farewell
for now my friend, maybe someday we will meet again. But just remember you
won't have me ever again.
--Ashley F.
I drive on the highway a snake ate my car. I run in a cave and hide for
I fear to die. I come out and there is a rabbit eating a snake. I get a
ride from a flying slug. I land at Pluto and I go crazy. I take a gun and
eat it and blowout my brains with a banana. I had the magic so didn't die.
I get mad and scream and ah ski, ski, ski, ski, ski, oh a ski, ski, ski
ski, oh why? Why?
--Aaron U.
This is my poem; I really don't know what to s ay. So I guess I will
talk all about my day. I woke up this morning about a quarter after six,
wash my face, brush my teeth and through on my kicks also I was hungry so
ate frosty flakes. I see Tony the tiger on the box saying their greeeeat.
Now I'm all done so I ran out the door.
--Atiba B.
Cry, I cry when no one is looking, I cry when I'm alone, I cry when I'm
sad.
--Jessica P.
Ed is the color I feel right now. I'm angry with the world. The way tings
have to be but mostly with myself. This red in side of me is like a fire
that feed put unwillingly. I see red all around me too many people are angry
then me hurting one another, hurting themselves. Red is the way I see thing
for now anyways. That would be more of the thing I need now a day too. Its
as red as f fire with no conflict like the warmth were use to I wish I could
see the world the way a lot more people do.
--Christian H.
I go home. I go home to eat some food. While I watch TV. After watching
the TV. and eating. I practice my trumpet then talk with my sister and watch
more TV. After too much of TV. I go to bed. This is what I do when I go
home.
--Nathaniel M.
My dad, my dad is my support, my dad is my defense, whenever I'm around
him he leave me no suspense. My dad is really funny. He always makes me
laugh, Although some of his jokes are corny, I always always laugh. He is
a great supporter, I'm glad that he is mine, I wouldn't settle for anyone
else, this one does just fine.
--Colin B.
McDonald's, BK, Hot'n'Now, All have cheap cheese burgers, Dominoes, lil
Caesars, Pizza Hut all have that deep dish KFC and Munchies, you say how
can chicken taste so good. But none of these places is the place for me
if you want food go to your grand mama's house.
--DeAngelo A.
Baby, what if today was forever. What if there were no more I love you's.
Kisses. Long walks or goodbyes. What if this was it? Would you regret the
things not said? Would you regret our time spent together? Would you even
care? But today is not forever. For forever never ends, so don't wait
till forever to say the things unsaid. Sometimes it's easier to just.
--Ashleigh H.
School is a drag I hate everything about it. The classes, The teachers.
The people even lunch is a drag. School is a waste of time and tax dollars.
I wouldn't mind not having to go to school. Whoever invented school
should d rot in hell!! Or better yet a classroom. School is a place where
parents send their kids to get rid of them for 7 hours of the day. Why would
anyone come up with this idea? They must have really hated their kids. They
trick you by saying schools fun but by the end of elementary school you
have to start doing work, hard stuff. I loved school up until the first
grade.
--Alexa S.
I sit here in class today counting the minutes until it's time
to go home. I don't really want to go home today because I don't
want to fee the pain that floats around the house like a leaf that floats
on the water. Feeling like there's nothing I can do to help the situation.
At times when we look back to the good times, it feels the pain has gone
away until you open your eyes then it's like opening a door and a
gust of cold wind hits you but instead of cold wind it's pain. I know
in time God will ease the pain we feel out until then we just stick together
--Erin J.
Today he was in pain. He slept in and woke up dreading where he was about
to go. His mom drove him there and within the hour they cam back home. He
was in pain. Calling me at lunch barely able to talk. He sits at home lonely
and sad. He can't go to work and he can't drive around. He calls
me again and comes over so I can try to comfort him. The pain he tells me,
is not as bas as he expected. He is starting to feel better now. It's
all for the best I tell him. Everything will get better, I tell him as we
both know the worst is yet to come. He went to the dentist and got a tooth
pulled. Soon he will get braces!! "The pain" he says "Oh
the pain."
--Ashley M.
I'm glad it's Friday and the very last class of the week.
So when I go home I can lie down and sleep. But Monday will come way to
fast because the weekends never do last. I will hang out with my friends,
go the movies and the mall, it's a whole lot better than dong nothing
at all. Monday will come another week of school learning and studying and
doing homework that's not cool. But parts of school are okay, the
part where work isn't involved
--Brandi D.
I was born American and I will die an American I'm a citizen first
but second a soldier. For this nation, I sworn to defend her the day will
come when I'm off to war they say we fight for the weak and the poor.
Walter Conklin The love of my life is the sweetest. The love of my life
is the cutes. The love of my life is the most realists. The love of my life
gives me the healin! The love of my life is like the cards I be dealing.
I have a great hand, so that's why he's my man. His love is
like the feeling you get in a dance. My love and I are very best friends.
And we will be till the very, very end.
--Rachel C.
Today started out pretty average. I woke up did what I had to do. First
hour was a total bore as usual. Ben second hour was pretty awesome dance
class! I love it. I can show my true feelings in my movement then lunch.
It was awesome (even tho I had no food) I was with the person I care for
and it was great. His smile is so perfect. Then came biology. Bore number
2 right there (need I say more?) and now I'm here writing about absolutely
nothing. But it's fun so its all good. Tonight there as a basketball
game we play at East Lansing everyone knows Everett will win because East
Lansing hasn't won a single game.
