The look
By: Eugenie Ishimwe
Ravishing red
Modern audacious
Designed to be noticed
Eye catching
Ahead of its time
Simply ageless
Sensational jaw dropper
How does one stay true to the vision
My secret
Dragons and monsters
A stroke of cool rather than defiance
Though I admit it’s often murder
Exactly why
For good reason
To hear from
Spring did more than leave a little colour
When we 1st met
Your look caught my heart
At London fog
We’re inspired
Connected
Delighted in the unexpected
We’re full of surprises from peaceful pit stops
Balanced youthful daring with a dash of romance
So high can’t get enough
December
A bump in our standings while expecting nothing but the best
… Vroom Vroom …
Me When I Grow Up
By: Jada Resler
2015 I'm 12
my life is boring but I will get to do
things that are fun.
2016 I'm 13
and the same as 12.
2017 I'm 14
I'm babysitting.
2018 I'm 15
almost driving.
2019 I'm 16
my sweet 16 birthday.
2020 I'm 17
in high school.
2021 I'm 18
I'm a senior.
2022 I'm 19
and going to college.
This is my life- never stopping.
Where I'm From
By: Kordiea Rerick
I am from electronics-
fitting my hand perfectly
She is from the wide world
of plastic Barbie dolls
I am from hitting and
catching to passing and setting
She is from kickball with
friends to wet swimming fun
She is from music-
filling her world
I am from books
filling my head
She's from The Beatles
and the era of Elvis Presley
I am from the radio
wondering what's next
She's from John F. Kennedy
a president sized crush
I am from knowing no
celebrities for me
She is from Sixlets, Bubble Gum
and Penny Candy
I am from Hershey Bars
chocolate melting in my mouth
She is from the Ed Sullivan Show
the comedy and laughs
I am from American Ninja Warrior
the suspense and skills
She is from Nancy Drew
and her mystery skills
I am from Warriors -
cats fighting to survive
She is from cool rad and wow
I am from 'sup and yolo
She is from her future
as an oceanographer
I am from hope of becoming
a president or a teacher
She is from silence
I from noise
She is from family
I am from family
WE ARE FROM FAMILY
The Red Tricycle
By: Kordiea Rerick
Wheels creaking.
Handlebars crooked.
Years
of playing
lost
in the rain.
Sometimes
a race-car
zipping around
the crooked
chalk-drawn track.
Teetering,
almost falling
around the corners.
Seven years.
One generation.
Three maybe
four kids
and it's two steps
and always
crooked seat.
It's broken bell
worn
after too many
rings.
All
these memories.
Yet,
after some rain
there is
a rainbow
and the small,
red tricycle
is young
and fearless
again.
Passing in Life

The Future that will rise,
Like a gleaming Light.
The Glorious 1,
The Mystical 1.
As you stride on
The Victorious 3,
You strike the Amazing 4,
The Powerful 5,
And the Mighty 6.
As you get older,
The power and the glory
You once had,
Are now Obscure.
They are responsibility.
You will find your passion,
The things you like, Hidden
way in the depth will be waiting
to be found.
You will unlock
the Ultimate goal.
Your life will change
the way it should.
Your Passion
Your Destination
Your Goal
will be found.
More Glorious
More Mystical
More Victorious
More Amazing
More Powerful
and Mighty.
You will find this as you pass through
The Game of Life.
Because that's the way it is and Will be.
