Poems

**Boom! Crash! By Lieren** BOOM! CRASH! The cannons roared, As the blood bloody war went on and on, "AH! AH!" screamed the soldiers gored, During the battles lost and won, POW! POW! POW! go the guns loud, Falling men dressed in grey or in blue, Crying women back home, Sorrowing for their lost true loves.

** A Dream of School Supplies **

I had a dream of school supplies, where paperclips could talk; where poster paper hung around with marking pens and chalk.

The stationery idled while the pencils madly raced. The clocks went 'round in circles, and the glue sticks merely paced.

The binders were inseparable. They bonded with the tape. The workbooks exercised and helped the stencils stay in shape.

Some calculators added to the numbers in this land, and music was provided by a singing rubber band.

My dream was strange and truly cool, but this was even cooler: The dictionaries all looked up to me. I was the ruler. by Kenn Nesbitt
