G@NG$T3R by Luis

Gang members fight everyday
Harming life in many ways
Fight, fight
Kill, kill
It’s what they say.

Bam, boom is what you hear
People run,run with fear.
Peace, peace
Live, live
It’s what I say.

Don’t let a gang member influence you
Just ignore them and try something new
Pride, pride
Life, life
Do the right thing; to thine own self be true!

A Present For Mom by Jessica

What should I give my mother

For, she’s not like any other.

She has a heart of gold,

 And she’s not very old.

 I think I will just give her my poem!!!

In The Corner by Jazzmin

Sitting in a desk
All alone in a corner
I see awful writing
On this beat down desk
Staring at the corner all day long
Wondering what I did wrong
But, I know what I did
Talking to my best friend
Goofing off in class
With gray walls all around me
I go insane
Feeling they are coming in on me
There won’t be a next time…hopefully.

Stars by Marco

Some stars are far,
Some stars are near,
If only I could,
Grasp one above.

Some stars are small,
Some stars are large,
If only I could,
Claim one above.

Stars are so bright,
Stars are just perfect,
Some day I will,
Name one above.
