America

America, a place for freedom and opportunity.
Where the mantra of the countries people is unity.
America, a nation of many people, cultures and traditions.
Persevere through many tragedies and conditions.
America, holds a promise of education.
We thrive for hard work and dedication.
America, made of the strong and the brave.
Our military heroes have fought for our freedom to the grave.
America, the place where you know your voice will be heard.
Knowing that you won’t be ignored not one word.
America, the free
Making life better for you, him, her and me.
America, where everyone helps you.
Being proud to represent our red, white and blue.
America, where create our own American dreams.
It’s a lot better than what it seems.
America, where we don’t realize how lucky we are.
This is the best place to live by far.
America, a safe place for you and me.
Something we both can agree.
America, a place for freedom and opportunity.
Where the mantra of the countries people is unity.

Dance

Dancing is a way to express your self
Dancing is a way to help one find itself.
From Ballet the ones who are flexible and graceful
To Jazz the ones who wear tights and have pirouettes.
There is such a variety of different dances.
Ones that make you take risky chances.
Dancing is a way to forgive your regrets.
Doing intense moves that involve splits, jumps and spins.
Looking at your crowd and seeing nothing but grins.
Feeling the beat and moving to the song.
Trying to make everyone feel that they can join along.
Hitting every motion and with a smile.
Because you know what you’re doing is worthwhile.
Trying to be as perfect as you can be.
But at the same time trying to feel free.
Expressing your emotions and what you’re feeling
Taking in the warm lights shining down from the ceiling.
Dressing up in a flashy costume.
Not caring what everyone else thinks and just resume.
Dancing is a way to express your self
Dancing is a way to help one find itself.

Happiest Place On Earth

Poem 4
Mickey mouse roams and the princesses dance.
It puts you in a childhood trance.
From going on rides and spinning teacups.
The madahorn mountain erupts.
Seeing glamorous Minnie.
To friendly Winnie.
From ride to ride walking many miles.
Even in the hot weather nothing but smiles.
On the rides having people watch us from below.
While Daisy is taking pictures and showing off her bow.
Being so happy you’re not in bland classes.
Not waiting in the long lines because you got fast passes.
Feeling a little tired and hungry, you want a snack.
Eating and watching the Starswars chacaters attack.
Wanting to cool off and go on a water ride.
Splash Mountain, the one with the huge slide.
Tasting the best most delicious ice cream.
Making you believe you were in some crazy dream.
The Indiana Jones ride gives you a huge thrill.
Because you think the boulder at the end will kill.
Staying at night time and watching the fire works set.
Can’t believe your day is over and not ready to leave yet.
Knowing your day was well worth.
From spending your day at the happiest place on earth.

High Tech High International

I go to High Tech High International.
Where they teach us to be more rational.
We are 3 different High Schools, but one community.
Everyone here has equal opportunity.
Our teachers here don’t condescend.
They are there to be a helping friend.
We learn about things by doing various projects.
To learn about the different objects.
We are the people who will shape the years to come.
We are the school that no one can be called stupid or dumb.
Unlike many other schools we take immersion trips.
To learn about new places and gain some new tips.
To Switzerland, Australia, Japan, Belize, Peru and more.
We wish travel to these places to explore.
Exploring new cultures and places.
Meeting strangers that become familiar faces.
Coming back and being so thankful that you had that opportunity.
Being glad that you are apart of this community.
Creating memories that will never fade.
Never forgetting the friends you made.
I go to High Tech High International.

Escape

This is the place some people go just to escape.
It’s known for a relaxing landscape.
Everything is nice and calm.
I feel the rough grains in my palm.
Absorbing the sun on my skin.
So warm, thinking I’m feeling the light from within.
This is the best place to be.
Where people can go and be free.
Cooling off and splashing around in the cold salt water.
But when you get out you feel the weather getting hotter.
Surrounded by people tanning, swimming and playing games.
Meeting diverse people and learning new names.
Feeling the nice breeze and looking at the clear blue sky.
Seeing all the seagulls that fly by.
The sea shells ornament the shore.
Makes me want to come back more.
Taking a walk on the pier.
Letting all of your worries and thoughts disappear.
The rays of the sun kiss my skin.
I’m tan everywhere and feel the burn on my shin.
Even though my footprints in the sand lead away.
I’ll soon be back for another great day.
