There once was a hero who's name was Goo. When he flew he ate a shoe. His nemesis was smart . But he was a tart. Then Goo Was killed by Hugh.


Jackson

Boom! I fall hard on the concrete. I thought this one was one I could beat. I cannot forgive the evil he has done. But there is no time for flashbacks, I am on the run. He let all my dreams just lie there dead. I don’t know how to hold in this dread. I run away now, but swear I will be back. I want to give him pain, as sharp as a tack. Want to stab him in the heart, if it is not too late. His doom is my fate. I think how to avenge the dreams he took away. This is revenge. I thought that this city was my dome and my enemies would be as soft as foam. I see I was wrong, because he is as hard as rock. I want to throw him in jail and that cell I would lock.


FIGHT.

I finally manage to take my mind off that dude. But inside me I am feeling crude. I manage to go into a shop and see the manager talking to a cop. The man he describes I know but is a to dark and terrible place too go. I find enough strength in me to fight him again. I will kill him like a hen. I walk there alone hoping I will not break a bone. And just thinking about it makes me moan. I call his name it has begun. I look up at my hope as high as the sun. I punch. He kicks I grab my gun, a colt 46. He wasn’t expecting that, I say. I beat him, the bullet way. Who was the enemy I had to fight. No one, but hate in the middle of the night.


ď ŠSnowboardingď Š Wind in my face. Freezing cold is the race. All the pain is erased. You need to find the pace. If to win. To get in the bin. Go for it. To win.

cats Avery Warmack

Cats run cats jump Cats curl up in a lump They sleep in the sun When they play they have fun Some cats will kill birds Wild ones live in heards Its hard to have just one Cats are filled with energy and fun Some cats stalk prey Other ones sleep away When the day is done Cats are number one.


What was once mine I look, a tear in my eye. I beg myself please don’t cry. I look where all the memories took place. The accidental swim in the pond. The beside the creek race. I fondly look at all to be lost. There is no option, the penny’s been tossed. It is not true I beg and plead. Being here is what I need. I hear the wind whistle through the trees. I hear the hum of all the honey bees. Those familiar sounds I am to lose. What I like most about them I can’t choose. I know it, I will keep fighting. Yet life is a page and I have just started writing. What do I do? I just don’t know. I can’t turn back so I will have to let go. I have to keep going not stopping or slowing. I have to pick up my oar and keep rowing. Yes I will lose this place it is true But I’m just a kid and there is nothing I can do. -Sarah


Weather is brutal. Weather is beauty. Keeping you alive is mother nature’s duty. Weather is cool. Weather has feelings, like when the sun is out or when it rains. It plays with a flashlight when lighting has crashed. It smiles when the suns out, but not always for long, when the wind whistles, It’s playing a song. It can have achievement, but not always respect.


DREAMS

Have you seen the other side? Have you looked? have you tried? I know a place where there is no rain, There is no sorrow, there is no pain. There is a place that will make you glad, Never angry, never sad. At night when you have slipped away Before you start another day. To this land you must descend. For the routes of your mind you must tend. Cross the bridge. Come with me Our boring world we must flee. In this magical garden anything can grow. If you want to find it to your dreams you must go. -Sarah


Colors Colors are powerful but don’t always last and sometimes a they remind you of a memory from the past. The colors of the rainbow are ROYGBV but colors need protection in order to live. Some people say that the sun will die out. With no doubt the suns colorful rays are just it’s ways. The moon is white as and brightens up the sky at night.


The Forest By Kyle The trees are tall and tower above me. They are just magnificent to see. The leaves are bright and covered in dew. The smelly mushrooms make me say pee-yew. The rocks are scattered all over the ground. It is so quiet you can hear every sound. The moss is cold and slightly damp, Even with the sun for a really bright lamp. The leaves strain the light till it reaches the ground. Until you find an opening with sunlight all around. The dirt is so fine it is almost like a bed. There are little bushes with berries colored red. There are some fruits you don’t want to eat. There are many stumps on which you can take a seat. This is the forest and it is so fine. This is the forest and it is so divine.


Winter By Kyle

A slight breeze streams through my hair. The trees are left completely bare. The color of grass is turning bland. It is now a barren wasteland. For now the air will stay cold. Until the time when the weather unfolds. Animals are sleeping quiet and sound. There is nothing left around. Everyone stays in and doesn’t come out. For Winter is what I am talking about.

5TH GRADE OTHER

SECTION


By Tristan

I run with the ball, wind in my hair. I pass the ball and the receiver catches it. The quarter back passes the ball back and I, the running back, sprint down the field. The offense passes an interception to me and they are enraged. I do a flip into the end zone and make a perfect touch down.


Cool equals lacrosse, it fills me with excitement. Catching, throwing, cradling the ball. Sprinting down the field to get into the action. Standing on the side line,

Waiting to get on field. Shooting, scoring all the goals. When you go on the field it awakens you. Another name for lacrosse is awesome. Better than any other sport. A horn is sounded and it’s all over. If we lose I am heartbroken and angry at myself. But when I win I am happy and filled with jubilant energy.


Letters

Letters are the good stuff. Letters are the fun. Letters have ink. Blank paper has none. It’s amazing! It’s spectacular! It’s the best, It’s magical! Ahhhhhhh! Raaaaaaaaaaaar! Expucitar! Narr! You write. you send. you open. Then it comes to an end.

Colton

I turn and scream pass. The ball flies through the air. I hold my stick up and catch the ball. Max is in the middle and I pass to him. He catches and shoots. GOAL! We win.


Jackson War .Whenever you hear that word you feel the ground tremble. Then it gets worse and at the jaws of #@^% open up eating everyone. But you can’t stop it because once it has started, it has already ended, Like war. You think about this for a minute and realize that weapons were only made to hunt not to fight. Death is the only factor of war. Every day we are losing lives for a pointless reason…a reason more silly than war itself. War is a waste of money, lives, dreams and hope. Turning the greenest grass, as brown as war. Every second, minute, hour, day, every year, decade or century there is a loss. And that loss is war. There is no hope in this internal feud. Not unless hope is death. In our video games we laugh at and enjoy war… we spend our middle school years chatting about this “wonderful’’ thing. War doesn’t only kill us, it kills nature with fire, explosions, poison acid, and litter. Why do we have such an unnecessary no-brained thing ?,you ask. War, the word that makes the sweetest fruit go sour. War…. Why …Why war?
