End of the School Year Poem

I’m glad you were my teacher.
I've come to love you so.
I can't believe the end is here.
I hate to see you go.

Remember all the fun we had
in all the things we did
But most of all  I remember...
You made me feel like a very special kid!

I remember our first day.
I walked in and said "Hello."
You said "Have a seat."
Then the bell rand and I had to go.

I will miss you in the coming year
when I move on to high school.
Yearning for our times back
But hey, I'm a freshman, COOL!

I Can't Write a Poem(POEM)

Forget it
You must be kidding
Mrs. Green my pencil broke and I can't fix it
I'm trying to but you wont let me explain
I fell asleep and lost the whole lesson
and now I feel like some hero in a cape
I started to writing but couldn't think of one
I can only spit sick nasty bars
I'm about to start writing, never mind
1 2 3 I'm done
I can't pay attention with all this commotion
and Karleigh keeps saying "Hey, look at my eyebrows!"
Time's up? Uh oh!
All I have is a dumb list of excuses.
You like it? Really? No kidding.
Thanks a lot. Would you like to see another one?

Who I Am(POEM)

I am the one who stays out all night and likes the quiet
I wonder about the things that others don't
I hear the crickets chirping tonight
I see the stars when I look up
I want to give them a hug
I am the one who stays out all night and likes the quiet

I pretend the stars are animals
I feel them shake the ground as they run by me in herds
I touch them as they pass me
I worry that they might run away
I cry because they leave at dawn
I am the one who stays out all night and likes the quiet

I understand they have to leave
I say "COME BACK" but they cant stay
I dream of seeing them tomorrow
I try calling their names but they are no where to be found
I hope to see them running back tonight
I am the one who stays out all night and likes the quiet

The transgender(transformer) bathroom problem

     A big commotion of todays society is what bathroom a transgender should use. Some say they should use the bathroom according to what they are now, others say they should go to the one they were born as, and others say the government should make another bathroom. Deuteronomy 22:5 says "A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the Lord your God detests anyone who does this." Therefore, why are transformers in this world. God made you one way for you to be. He makes no mistakes.
     Lets go the bathroom subject. For the ones that say they should go to the one they appear as now, look at it like this. Say a big bulky man that looks like a woman walks into a bathroom with you 6 year old daughter. You can't say that you or your daughter won't be scared. If it passes that way, I think there will be an increase of rape cases in the United States.
     In my opinion, there should just be a men's, women's, and a transformer's bathroom. If that doesn't pass, they should go to the bathroom that they appeared on their birth certificate. There is going to be a huge uproar about this in the upcoming months when school districts have a meeting about this subject. For now, the government is at a stand still.

Football Poem

Hidden deep within this field
Sweat and hard work is stained
Fans screaming and yelling
Under the Friday night lights it rained

He runs down the sideline of the open field
Catching fans cheers as he goes
He crosses the line, touchdown
He does his touchdown dance with a good pose

Kickoff time
Both teams set up for the kick
10yd gain the go to pass
Run up catch, pick six!

On this team
Iron sharpens Iron
We sharpen one another
We are focused and wired

Coming down to the last seconds
They are down by one
We stopped the pass for the touchdown
The horn goes off, we won

Alphabet peom about the school years

Almost made it to freshman years
Bolting to class so we aren't tardy
Continue to keep the grades up
Don't get caught in the life of a party

Even though others bring you down
Faithful friends will pick you up
Getting to class freshman years
Hurry cant be late, speed up

Imagine us senior year
Just kidding that's too far
Keeping friends is a priority
Looking for colleges is like looking for star

Most don't take high school serious
Not us because were the best
Over achievers in this class
Put work before sports like another test

Quitting is NOT an option
Rising to take the challenge is
Settling down for sophomore year
Take a seat, it's just another quiz

Universities will be looking for applications
Valedictorians being picked first
Waiting to hear from colleges we want
eXaming goodbyes is the hardest, tears are starting to burst
Yearning for our high school friends and
Zooming back on vacations is in what we all trust

Where I'm From(POEM)

Where I Am From

I am from Sumter
where on the way to work
it's bumper to bumper
 
I am from Sumter
where you can't see at night,
where you look up at the stars
and see a great sight
 
I am from where Wisterias grow
and you go to town
to see everyone you know
 
I am from where military families come to stay
then in a few years
go away
 
I am from where everyone tries to rhyme
and families go hunting but only to kill time
I am from Sumter
