The life around you, through good and bad,
Will never give up on you- not even a tad.
Feel no sorrow, no sadness, nor pain
Just listen to nature and its delightful rain.
Nature is filled with life and peace
And this sweet feeling will never cease.
Home by Ben Rosasco
Home
Is a place that is not hard to find
When you have a crew and a ship and the wind flies
When the wind turns west, and it brings you away
You must hope
And pray
That home does not decay
Home is close
To your heart
And you must not delay
Or the sirens
And monsters will force you to stay
Home
Is a place that is important to us
And it causes a fuss
When your not with us
We need our king
Not Alcinous
Though kind may he be
Odysseus, Odysseus,
We all can agree
That you belong in Ithaca
Yes Ithaca
You belong In Ithaca
Not the Sea.
Overwhelming Malus by Christopher Egbert
Oh, you are the apple of my eye.
I want you to live, even if I die.
Your soul is very sweet.
You’re great, even very neat.
You make me want to say, “Oh my.”
Thunder by Bella Dombroski
Banging, booming loud.
Like anger pulsing through veins.
Bringing much chaos.
Like anger pulsing through veins.
Bringing much chaos.
Stuck in my Mind by Ben Gowgiel
Walking on a lonely road
Head down, stare at your toes
Don't say too much
Feel out of touch
Living fast, but dying slow
Holocaust by Brianna Taylor
Dark, cold and hungry
The sunrise is here again
only to remind me of my pain
Dark, cold and hungry
hard labor all day and all night
worry about my wife and my daughter
Dark, cold and hungry
Selection is now a daily thing
there are too many of us
Dark, cold and hungry
I am too weak to keep working
I will not die in vain
Sailing by Maddie Graan
Seeing the waves crash against the haul.
Angeling the wheel against the wind.
I pull out the sails and
Lay off the anchor as
I feel the wind swaying through my hair.
Not a care in the world since
God shows me how beautiful the sea can be!
