wellll


We are getting our poems back right as I type. I am going to write mine down for you...

(I wasn't sure what to call it.. Any suggestions?)

The bell rings
Excited kids race out of a nightmare
that has lasted all year long
Two catch our eyes, hands united,
In love? Yes,
Or so they think.
Barefoot, they race down the sun stricken cement
Jumping to try to lessen the burn
Shaded by old blossoming dogwoods
And through sprinklers and new gardened flowers
Nothing seemed more real
Still holding hands, they run, and they laugh
And dream of the summer they have waited so long for
If only life was this easy.



And let me explain
This isn't saying that love is real... it is saying that the dumb highschoolers think they are bound for life, but will realize that it won't even last the summer :D


kay, tell me whatcha thinkkk :DD

It's good. It may not last the summer, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be happy then. I liked how the poem brought you back to reality. The last line hits you with a bang, and you realize that summer isn't all it's supposed to be. It's still awesome, but the joy only lasts for so long.
