Old Black Saab

Old black Saab
By Miles S.

Old black Saab,
I’m so glad you are gone,
You smelled like gasoline,
Your headlight was out,
You sucked a lot!

I never really liked you,
My mom didn’t want you
But she got you anyway.
You got pooped all over,
You were beat and torn,
Scratched and broken

You were kind of sad,
You didn’t smell new or anything close to it,
You smelled old,
I have a new car now.
I don’t have to worry about getting stranded
in the middle of nowhere.

Chlorine

Chlorine
by Orla T

In line at Kalahari lugging a heavy tube,
uncomfortable from the dampness which is copying my mood,
Trying to talk over the noise which is ringing in my ears.

Fog hovering in the air and threatening to give us aches, making it very clear they’re offering no mistakes.

Mom bugging us to drink more water,
While my skin’s drying hot and fast,
Making it feel like it’s rock
and planted in the ground with no one to dig it up.

A trip to the Ocean

A trip to the ocean
By Gaél Q

At the ocean,
I had no idea what I’m getting into,
Watching the sea,
Peacefully.
In one split second,
My head Was in the in the water.

Watching a school of fish ,
That’s when i saw it .
A moving motor,
Faster than a jet,
Right next to my head.
I started to panic,
Was nervous and afraid.
Thought it was the end.
In a moment of zen,
They hoisted me up,
So relieved,
Safe again.

The Best Thanksgiving

As we rushed out the door this late Thanksgiving night
To eat a big feast that is hot and nice
We just said our ‘thanks’ and I decided to ask,
“Can we please have a bite to feast on?”
My parents said yes
So I ate and ate
And I would have to say
it was The Best Thanksgiving ever.
