Freedom BearFreedom Bear
Baring arms to protect youFreedom bear welcomes you to
AmericaHe’s happy you’ve come
You make him smile with joyHe proudly wears the American Flag
Fifty stars of fifty statesHe rings his bell of liberty
With his friendly eagle
Freedom Bear
CeilingsIf I was a cloud ceiling
I would watch the earth All the people
Watch as buildings and forests burnWatch as people die and get born
If I was a ceiling in a schoolI would watch as people studied
Break rulesCheat
Watch as people are bullied
If I was a ceilingI would see everything that happened.
Ceilings
Ceilings
Signs of SpringThe fog lifting
Under a warm sunThe endless and serene skyFilled with billowing clouds
Dancing butterfliesFlying under the summer sun
A garden fountainFilled with relaxing blue waterDried lavender and fresh herbs
One blue irisBeside the mystic pool
EnchantmentIcy wind blowing
A quiet moment
Under the crescent moon
Soft moonlight
Entering a eternal dream
Evening symphony begins
Calm and serene
Dream spiral
Faint reflection of a
Clear moon, shining
Dogs
The dog is runningTo the park to get a ball
But lost where it was
Mississippi River
The MississippiRiver is overflowing
Due to heavy rain
Deer
Through the deep woods andOff the sandy winding path
Lives a deer family
Dogs, Mississippi River, Deer
Old
A old deck ageing
Ageing through rain and snow
Creaking and breaking
Cars
O-zone destroying
Carbon monoxide killingCars of pollution
Old, Cars
Cinquain
DishesCleaning dishes
Can be quite annoyingPut them away into cabinets
Dishes
RacingWatching the race is unpredictable
Cars can crash into walls or carsRacing
PassingWhen somebody
Passes away you mayfeel depressed, sad and sorrowful
Passing
Dishes, Racing, Passing

Façade Poems
Me
I seem to be happy
but really I am sad
I seem to be without friends
but really I am friends with a lot of people
I seem to be sad
but really I am angry
If / Then Poems
ConfusionIf you are confused about something
Then read a book about it
If there are no books on it
Then find a magazine on it
If there are no magazines on it
Then look it up on the internet
If you don’t have a internet connection
Then find a computer with one
If you can’t find a computer with one
Then get one
If you can’t get one
Then stay confused
If I were In Charge Of The World Poems
If I were in charge of the worldI would get rid of moneyannoying sisters, as well asslow computers
If I were in charge of the world I would make all computers fast as lightMaterials unlimited3000 Gigabyte had drivesMake computers small as a two CD cases

If I were in charge of the worldI would make everyone have every gameMoviesAnd music albums they wanted
