Hello!

* * * * *

This poem is from Chicken Soup for the Preteen Soul:
If it were all up to me
The poor would have riches
And the blind man would see
The hungary would eat
And the weak would be strong
And the poeple with hatred would all get along
The ones who are greedy would start to share
And unfriendly people would start to care
The thirsty would drink
And the deaf person hear
And sorrow and sadness would all disappear
And that is how the world would be
If it were all up to me.

my friend loves to read her name is molly.she has tons of books in her room. golly! i also love it too. i think it  is  cool.

* * * * *

Sadness is grey like the storm clouds during a blizzard
It's cold like a snowball hitting your head,
It sounds like a small child crying in the corner.
It tastes like a rotten tomato,
It smells like dead roses in the trash,
It fells like a sharp edge cutting you skin,
It moves like a silent windstorm sweeping you off you feet.

* * * * *

You run down an alley from a car,
You can't run to far,
You wonder what you did,
Then you remember,
The hate is strong,
The noght is black,
The gunshot is fired,
Your in the hospital bed,
Your lying still,
Your almost dead,
That one night I will never forget.

Math
multipulcation, division, addition, subtraction
            better take some action
       before you get those fractions
                       Good Luck!

This Tree

As I lie beneath this tree, I wonder
Is it ever lonely?
Does it need someone like me,
To keep it company?

As I watch this tree, I see
Leaves swaying in the branches,
The round trunk of the tree,
That tells me it is wise and old.

As I watch this tree, I see
A squirrel climbing up its trunk.
Jumping from branch to branch,
Enjoying every moment.

As I lie beneath this tree, I do not
Wonder anymore.
For I know this tree has seen
Its days and nights of happiness.

Dear Dandelion

Dear Dandelion,
Who made your stem,
your leaves,
and your bright yellow buds?
Who made you blow in the wind?

Nature has made my stem green,
my green leaves,
and my brigth yellow buds.
As I spread through the ground,
little kids like me,
but adults don't.
They call me a weed.

* * * * *

When I read, my mind goes somewhere else.  Like to a magical
place, or even a horse race. Maybe
I'll have to make a tough decision,
or I'll be on television. You never
know where you'll go in a book.

I truly recomend this book called RADIENCE DECENDING. It's a book about a boy boy named Paul who is 11 years old and his brother named Jacob who is 6. Jacob has Down-Syndrome so Paul doesn't want to have anything to do with him. But on Jacob's 7th b'day, Paul learns that his brother is more that how he is different or what his condition is, he learns that he should love Jacob because he's his brother. It's a great book and I hope you enjoy it too!

I think everyone should read One Thing I'm Good At. I like it because it is easy to relate to and it shows how different friends can be.

* * * * *

I am an avid reader and I like a ton of books that I'll share.

1. One Thing I'm Good At > This book is about a girl who is not understood. She despratley tries to be like her best friend, Abby, and the popular girls. While
trying to straighten up her life her dad almost loses his. Yet, she turns out to be a hero. This is an excellent book.

2. If You Only You Knew > Zoe is a girl who knows everyone and anyone in her school, but, she really want s someone to be her best friend. That someone is C.J. a ballerina dancer.  And to add on to the stress her older sisters are not understanding her.  But soon C.J. becomes her friend.  But her crush who also likes her is dating her best friend C.J. I think this a great novel.

3. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire > It is this summer vacation for Harry that is good. He is allowed to go to The Quidditch World Cup. And when he gets to school he see's his crush, Cho Chang he is hoping to impress her. When he is chosen to be in Triwizard Tournament he uses that oppurtunity! The end is sad but it is a great book!!!!
