The smoke on the field
The battle is a great one
The soldiers will yield
Whenever their view is blinded by the sun
Branches in the field
Flag standing tall
The soldiers yield
When people fall
The trees stare
The guns shoot
The enemy doesn’t care
People trip over the root
The soldiers run around
Not knowing where they are bound.

My Love by Madeline D.
We have been together for a while
You always have a way of making me smile
I love to hug you, I love to kiss you
Hold me in your arms and never let go
Let’s let our love for each other show
You are you
And I am me
But we go together like peanut butter and jelly
You always have a way of making me smile
I love to hug you, I love to kiss you
Hold me in your arms and never let go
Let’s let our love for each other show
You are you
And I am me
But we go together like peanut butter and jelly
And Always Will Be… by Lida H.
My personality is one of a kind
A girl like me is hard to find
I am outgoing as you can see
And always will be
I laugh a lot a like to have fun
You’ll often find me out in the sun
My love is free
And always will be
Sometimes I don’t blend
But in the end
I am me
And always will be
A girl like me is hard to find
I am outgoing as you can see
And always will be
I laugh a lot a like to have fun
You’ll often find me out in the sun
My love is free
And always will be
Sometimes I don’t blend
But in the end
I am me
And always will be
Fishing Con Mi Grandpa by Connor A.
Days spent fishing with you
Under a sunny, clear sky
Rocking the New Balance shoes
You were the coolest guy.
Though we caught nothing
Spending time with you was all I did need
You taught me a lot, took me under your wing
Out on the water, feeling like we’d been freed.

Sisters by Martha H.
Always there, every single day
Sometimes lost but we find our way
Together, Apart, A true crew
I will always have love for you.
Problems, Problems, Problems galore
There to help open a new door
You always help when I’m blue
I will always have love for you.
Smiles, Laughs, Irreplaceable times
Mom, Dad will never know our crimes
Happy or sad we’ll make it through
I will always have love for you.

Life Is by Lindsay B.
Life is a clicking clock
always running, constantly at work
tick-tock-tick-tock
time is not a berk.
Life is a new fallen snow
it’s here ‘till it melts away
although not a sole would want to go
no one can forever stay.
Life is like squeezing sand
the grains will always fall
it’s not hard to understand
there’s no way to make them stall.
Life is a candle stick
fire chomping down the wick.

Ode to Master Chief by Kyle L.
To one so swift and brave,
You’ve fought ‘till you met the grave.
Everything is but a blur,
While others watch in amazement at what you can endure.
The mighty covenant falls under your grasp,
While the HAVOK is sealed with a clasp.
You can’t help but smile,
When you think to yourself, “this was so worth while!”
You are honored for the courageous things you do,
As every Marine wishes to be you.
Well, now I guess you must be partin’
Because you, are a Spartan.
You’ve fought ‘till you met the grave.

Chaput by Corey C.
There once was a man from South Hadley
Who debated the staff quite madly
He is an ex-marine
Who has a lovely dream
To rid the democrats of South Hadley

Watching the Dark Fade by Zack T.
Too overwhelming to look at;
Yet too pretty to look away.
As the sun kept rising I sat,
And I would watch the clouds appear.
While the clouds would start to turn white,
And the wind would take them a stray,
Over the ocean came a light,
And I would watch the clouds appear.
The sky was a deep purple shade,
Keeping me from looking away,
I sat there watching the dark fade,
And I would watch the clouds appear.

Alone by Meghan M.
Alone, watching the waves close in on me
Does anyone see me standing out here
But how could it be, but how could it be
And now the waves are quite close and I fear
Peaceful yes, but I wonder how could you
Say that you love me and then walk away
And now you see I know what I must do
You will never know what happened today
Quickly the waves pulled me away from air
My body felt lifeless and I was scared
And I thought of you but you were not there
Then I realized you had never cared
Now I am below and no light is shown
I enter the end and the start, Alone.

A Day at the Beach by Katie P.
The Sun is setting and it is now summer
I have been lying on the beach all day
Leaving the water and the sun is a bummer
Lying there today all my worries gone away
Now that the sun is set the day is gone
Picking up the blanket and the umbrella too
All the memories past our day is done
I can’t wait till tomorrow going back with you
We have spent our day under the bright sun
Walking up to the pier to get some food
Maybe some chips or a hotdog and bun
After waiting all day hunger is my mood
I can’t wait till the moonsets for the night
Just so that I can see the sun shine so bright
I have been lying on the beach all day
Leaving the water and the sun is a bummer
Lying there today all my worries gone away
Now that the sun is set the day is gone
Picking up the blanket and the umbrella too
All the memories past our day is done
I can’t wait till tomorrow going back with you
We have spent our day under the bright sun
Walking up to the pier to get some food
Maybe some chips or a hotdog and bun
After waiting all day hunger is my mood
I can’t wait till the moonsets for the night
Just so that I can see the sun shine so bright

Life is Unscripted by Wes C.
Life is life unscripted.
It’s a wonderful thing.
It’s singing along to a song not sung.
And wearing the shiniest bling.
It’s taking a walk on the beach
With no one but the sea gulls.
Or learning how to teach
A new trick to your beagle.
It’s watching the sun forever rise
Ov’r the tops of the mountains.
And taking a bath
In New York’s finest fountains.
Life is life unscripted.
Life is life encrypted.

Sydney by Maddie M.
Little girl, about six
Preparing to go down the water slide.
With every twist and turn of the slide,
She laughs until her belly aches.
Across her body is a florescent bikini
And goggles cover her beautiful hazel eyes.
She’s putting on a show for the people watching her on the deck
But she loves the attention.
All you can see on her face is a big smile.
Just before she hits the water,
She sees a camera flash,
And she sticks her tongue out.
Splash!

Silly by Joe D.
There once was a boy who played baseball,
who was fond of his Barbie’s and dolls.
During practice one day,
in center field he lay,
he got knocked in the head with a ball.

Starry Night by Rachel B.
When I stare at the canvas in the square of the frame
I drift away to a place in time and unwind
Such beauty and grace from a man who would maim
A unique way to see life through an insane mind
Bringing life, depth, and power
Color in your world of black and white
To see is to smell your vision of a flower
In your world of darkness to see the starry night
Expansion, feeling, wonder meant from deep inside
Struggling to breathe with every stroke
Staring, staring, drifting I tried
Visions of a man emotionally broke
The troubled mind I will never know
As I stare at the madness of a man called Van Gogh
I drift away to a place in time and unwind
Such beauty and grace from a man who would maim
A unique way to see life through an insane mind
Bringing life, depth, and power
Color in your world of black and white
To see is to smell your vision of a flower
In your world of darkness to see the starry night
Expansion, feeling, wonder meant from deep inside
Struggling to breathe with every stroke
Staring, staring, drifting I tried
Visions of a man emotionally broke
The troubled mind I will never know
As I stare at the madness of a man called Van Gogh
Unruled Waters by Krista S.
Lay my feet on un-solid ground
Precious water so cold I bet
My ears hear not one song
Deliverance I have yet to forget.
Sunset softly, but let it awake
Warm ever slowly my skin
God has made this masterpiece for heaven’s sake
If I lay here and take it in, I will surely win.
What ancient mysteries lye beneath your wave
Over a hundred thousand stories you have washed up upon the shore
Each a memory you will save
Underneath it all there is more.
You scream for someone to come in
To ride away on a lonely dolphin’s fin.
Precious water so cold I bet
My ears hear not one song
Deliverance I have yet to forget.
Sunset softly, but let it awake
Warm ever slowly my skin

Over a hundred thousand stories you have washed up upon the shore
Each a memory you will save

Summer’s Sunset by Anna R
Being bored all day, it was almost night.
Go to the beach to get out of the town.
I sit and wait to watch the sun go down.
Creeping toward the sea, there’s no more daylight.
Finally disappears the moon comes out.
I just sit there and reflect on the day.
Every one of my troubles goes away.
I release my pain and all of my doubt.
I can’t move from my spot, I don’t know why.
A sudden cold breeze breaks me from my trance.
I stand up and take one final last glance.
At the beautiful night which makes me cry.
Watching the sunset I have emptied my head.
Of everything horrible that I dread.
