Author's note: This is a poem that goes to the book- Life as we Knew It , by Susan Pfeffer.
I remember the day...
when the moon got bigger,
and we scrambled for food.
Is there any hope we won't starve?
The day when the well went dry
Is there any hope that we won't die of thirst?
When my friend and neighbor died.
Is there any hope that we'll live?
Winter came as harsh and cruel as ever.
Is there any hope that we won't freeze to death.
Then my family got sick.
Is there any hope they'll survive?
Then the mayor came with bags of food.
We will not starve.
We were surronded by snow.
We will not die of thirst.
We saw people.
We are not alone.
We have wood and a fireplace.
We will not freeze.
Is there any hope in this cruel world?
Yes, there always is.

Flying!
Flying, flying through the air,
flying,flying with wind in my hair.
Flying,flying swoop up and down,
flying, flying round and round.
Flying, flying at a journy's end,
flying, flying so our hearts can mend.
Flying, flying to who knows where,
flying, flying with people who care.
Flying, flying way up high,
flying, flying through the sky.
flying,flying with wind in my hair.
Flying,flying swoop up and down,
flying, flying round and round.
Flying, flying at a journy's end,
flying, flying so our hearts can mend.
Flying, flying to who knows where,
flying, flying with people who care.
Flying, flying way up high,
flying, flying through the sky.

Imagine a World
Imagine a world that has no end,
where all your friendships never end.
Imagine a world full of bliss,
where no cat would ever hiss.
Imagine a world that is always pretty,
where all your friendships never end.
Imagine a world full of bliss,
where no cat would ever hiss.
Imagine a world that is always pretty,
where there would never be need for pity.
Imagine a world full of nice,
where you always had some delicious rice.
Imagine a world described like so,
there would be no need for no.
If the world was like this
you all would miss,
all the things that you do wrong,
and if you didn't, then you do not belong.
School
School is where you laugh and play
School is where you do that everyday.
School is where you learn to add
School is where you never get mad.
School is where you make new friends
School is where they never end.
School is not always cool
School is where your brain's a tool.
School is where you do that everyday.
School is where you learn to add
School is where you never get mad.
School is where you make new friends
School is where they never end.
School is not always cool
School is where your brain's a tool.

Ocean
Author's Note: P.S.--I moved this poem from my "fun" blog so you might have already read it.....
The ocean's color blends in with the horizon
while it hides its true king Poseidon
The ocean's hides rocks galore
it even hides the Earth's core
Swim deeper into the ocean
and you'll have a great notion
That you should be quiet
or there might be a riot
For you have found a great big shark
its shadow,getting bigger, is gloomy and dark
As fast as you can swim higher and higher
until you break the word's swimming record and is someone to admire
Never forget your jorney in the great big blue
but never go back if it's only you.
