The Love-Hat Relationship
by Aaron Belz
I have been thinking about the love-hat relationship.
It is the relationship based on love of one another's hats.
The problem with the love-hat relationship is that it is superficial.
You don't necessarily even know the other person.
Also it is too dependent on whether the other person
is even wearing the favored hat. We all enjoy hats,
but they're not something to build an entire relationship on.
My advice to young people is to like hats but not love them.
Try having like-hat relationships with one another.
See if you can find something interesting about
the personality of the person whose hat you like.

LIFE IS A JOURNEY
By Jamie Bayard
It is easier to
embrace ignorance
than to gain knowledge.
Life is a journey
not a destination
For if we loose site
of our purpose
we end up in bondage.
When does a man
realize his flaws?
Truly to be humbled
by his actions and
the words from his jaw
At the very moment
of realization
awakened by a roaring
Lion
scared without patience
At this moment the
heart burns and stomach
like a stray dog, hungry
for a ration of anything,
anything, anything….but
this he can not change.
It’s at your bitter
end you realize that
Life is real…..
One cannot escape it
with a crumb or a pill
Nothing is new
all has been done.
I used to ask:
What is my purpose?
and the answer was;
“Just to have fun”.
I know now more than
ever, in the eye of the storm.
May be clear for a moment
and can appear to be the norm.
but in just a few seconds
here comes the alarm!
Thrashing and blowing
and pouring down pain
Run, run, run, get away
from the rain…..
Hide in the house
Hide with your friends
Hide with your conscience
We know how that ends……

MY GRANDMA
by Niamh Kennedy, Grade 2
My Grandma is the sweetest one
she tells me not to suck my
thumb. And when I make that
big mistake, she tells me "try!
That's all it takes". My Grandma
knows how to have fun when
I'm with her we run run run.
From shows to shops from bikes
to pools, she plays with me even
at school! She loves me lots I'm
sure you see. My Grandma
means the world to me.

Moonlight's Shimmer
by Joe Riccio, grade 5
MOONLIGHTS SHIMMER
The sparkle in my eyes at one last
prayer
The stars glisten in the sky
The Moon's shaft of light, lights
the path of faith and hope
For my new day
The Immaculate Moon's flawless,
faultless, pure, and pristine,
Gleam of light shines on me
The darkness inward bounds yet the
moon still stays the same
The Moonlight's Shimmer tendency
Still stays the same as always and
forever.

Do you Know
By Amy Still
Do you know that
there is someone
who cares about you
and loves you just
the way you are?
And that someone
is God. He cares
about you so much.
For it says in the
Bible in John 3:16,
"For God so loved
the world that he
gave his one and
only Son, that
whoever believes
in him shall not
perish but have
eternal life."

Roof - one of the major elements of the house,
emphasizing its architectural expressiveness and being an element of the facade,
carrying out functions of protection against atmospheric precipitation.
But not all traditional technologies allow to design and construct a roof of any form,
in short terms and with appropriate quality.

WAKING OF LIFE:
new born child of sweet sensation,
beautiful flower, as if a carnation.
going to sleep shut thine blue eyes.
dreaming so deep of the beautiful sunrise.
and when you wake you shall be fully grown,
a wonderful life that you have known.

STILL I RISE:
still i rise as the morning sun awakes me
i think about all the things i cannot see
i cannot see why people can be so unkind
but if you slowly think about it, everyone has a different min.
still i rise even though some people reject me.
they cannot stand the way i like to be.
i like to be who i am inside.
like helping people when theyre down and showing my pride.
still i rise when people attempt to put me down.
i try to smile, but its too hard, so i wear a frown.
i like to smile up at the rising sun.
cuz each time i see it, i know a new day has begun.
still i rise and think about how good i have it now.
i think about all the things ive said and done like, when and where and how?
i like to be helpful and keep a great big smile upon my face.
i sometimes fall behind, but in the end, i know ill win the race.
so still i rise, to this very same day.
and hopefully all things will be good and fair in the end, i pray.

THE PAST:
the past as much as its remembered, it is better left unsaid. unspoken it should stay, but its always in your head.the past is best forgotten, because its too painful to bear. as much as its ignored, itll always stay right there. at your weakest moments, as you tears begin to fall, closing your eyes slowly, you remember it all. the past is left unspoken, as you leave for tears to dry. while you whisper in the dark, you can never help but cry. just leave the past behind you, focus on the future that lies ahead. leave tears of joy in the sun, because now, the past is dead. =]

MELTING GLASS
My eyes seem like that
A tired look at best
Not that ive depressed
But not enthralled
My chest and the actuazation of real pain
Sents a worryness to some degree
Its like a fire is dying
Or a storm is fading
Realzation that I am dependent on significant others
For a i long to live for them
Because i will put myself
last at best
My breath, the air I breath
Exits like smoke as i close my eyes
The cold weather claims it
And it is gone
Everything is gone

Fire strikes a dwelling sensation
and easy going trasition
Impossible to truly hide
and escape from the past tense
because you were just there
take one step forward
So cold, a freezing heart
Burning heavy from the start
Im all metaphores
and now will say for sure
I still feel just like a kid
Dazed and my vison is cloudy
Were all so limited in perception
What i desire is love, to be loved and...
You fill in the blank
God's got my back
And he will lift the fog

Hey i havent gotten around to showing some new stuff to you, I have some ideas and havent wrote in a couple weeks. SO here area few more things and of course you have my persimisson to post them on ur site.
1.A Page Inside A Spiral Notebook
These heavy burdens lifted from my arms
but now cold hands reach into my chest
I thought i had you, at least MY friend
but its seems Ive been hit with my own poisen
So Now im not sure
If i will have you at all
I promise to keep certain emotions hiddin away
So you dont have to fret
Im here and I always have been
but because of this mess where do u come in
Tell me its all a phase
or maybe not because ive had my fillings of those
So I will wait for a call
or maybe a cue
And This?
After everything?
I didnt imagine
Im not angry
But cant seem to understand this problem
So im sitting here with unspoken solum
2. 8 Digit Language
Tell me im not too late to blend
cuz i can hardly comprehend...
A dwelling inside of me
that lives and curses my soul
fall apart and pulled at the seems
the darkside comes into play
its so easy to slip...
slip in on like an overcoat
Tell me why...cant i...pull it together
instead of being pulled into the slip stream
and spit out like gunfire
then surpressed and condenced into eternity
shake me with ur useless contributions
so i can forget you and all of this
Because I can hide behind as many walls i can build
fordged in titanium and stones
why cant i seem to grasp the difference
between reality and my dreams
a shadow hiding inside a mirror
scared of its own reflection
comes creeping out and plays this game of cat and mouse
then runs away inside his own image
3. Code Word Elimination
After hours, after dark
it coinsides with all that is bizzar
at last these formations of downs
attack on a seek and destroy mission
overlooking hidding repercusions
find me if you can
or if your even obligated to do so
strenuous, may it seem
its the reality inside my dreams
that, form that is grey
its not all black and white
if it was or at least everyone thought it
simplicity woundnt excist
bound in titles and cover ups
lies the inner core of all of us
reshape the mistaken
make everything beautiful again

Undistored Distortion
by Charles Andrew Hodge
Opposites
yeah they will send your mind off track
and hyphenated thoughts
if im not mistaken
Amazing how a single spark starts the flame inside me
that really all i need
Twas grace and repitition that found all that was hidding
inside of, inside of you all for the finding
Oh God, why do you bless me with this curse?
I live to love and waste away the fires
illusions so bittersweet that I...
I drown inside my mind
Would you tell me why i can't...
...i just can't..
Acknowledge the difference between reality
and images in my head

Mellow-Go-Round
By Charles Andrew Hodge
The pieces of the puzzle are there
They lay subcontiously hidden
Slightly tweaked ideas
Meaning nothing of the sort
I will let go and find the light
Even if i can breath in the dark
I could loose my mind
Before id let you loose control
I know...
Even at second glace
Tiny illusions dance in front of my porciline eyes
Breakdown im wasting away in the sun
So vivid and hyponotizing
I wonder astray
Lost in thought until im lost in reality
Where do i go next on me
Mellow-Go-Round
A content neverending 360
On the path to tomarrow
That leads no where
Because ive been there
Running in the same damn place
