THE NEW STUDENT
Saw a new face today,
As silent as could be and,
Never knew their name.

THE WEIRD WOODS
Green day in the woods.
Creeping me out as it stays
Standing tall and proud.

CREATIVITY
Creativity,
It's never too much to have
In books and in poems.

A world of games,
Football shall not hide away,
Stars shining in the sky.

I have a pet dog,
He is a German Shepherd,
His name is Manny.
