Couplets:

Grade eight is almost done
Im glad i has lots of fun

On the day of grad
I will be very sad

I will definately miss this school
I hope i dont cry like a fool

Mr.Fisher gave me heck
When i wandered out of  my desk

I hope i have good marks in the file
Because when i see them i will smile

I hope we go ourside this summer
If not it will be a bummer

Grade eight went by so fast
It was a blast

Grade eight is fun
But im glad it is done

Quatrains:

Cheerleading:

Rah,Rah, Rah!
Cheerleading is a great sport.
Making many pyramids,
They almost look like forts!

Going up to double base.
Back flips, front flips, do it all.
Now we cradle, count one two.
Make sure the pyramid doesn't fall!

Do some jumps and make them scream.
Making the crowd go insane.
Lets do some more!
It's the "Side line game"!

Competition is a whole new level.
Step onto the mats, now don't be shy.
Flash a cheer face at the judges!
Throw the tops, Make them fly!

Environment:

Have you ever noticed,
How much we waste?
At the end of the day.
Its something we have to face.

We need to realize!
So the protesters shout.
They want whats best.
Now don't you have doubt

The air is polluted.
Don't you see?!
Getting worse and worse every day.
Because of those factories

Now you should know.
Before its too late.
We're in this together.
For the worlds sake.

Life :

"What goes around comes around".
Isn't that what they say?
I never really understood.
Because of the problems in the way.

Lybia:
Terror
Freedom is gone
People being killed for no reason
His atmosphere is frightening

Japan
Tragedy comes
Buildings and homes are gone
Families shocked at destruction
What next ?

Energetic
Cheerful and exciting
Athletic and energetic
Cheerlead


Haiku Poems about Japan:

Waves come rolling in
You try to run for your life
They catch up to you


The great 9.0
Awakened the tsunami
And the screams began



Night on Gull Lake

This poem is about, an island that "pulled" people in from the lake to visit it.  The island almost seemed to be "magical".  In the end the island was said to be "lost in the fog and never found again".  The island might have been a dream.
I liked all the figurative language, but disliked the parts that made no sense to me.
The poem made me feel some what confused, the poem seemed mysterious.

Misery
By: Andrew Parker

This poem is saying that when you see a commercial on Television that says something like "help the  kids in Africa and sponsor a child today" you normally say "oh I'm up for that" but then when the commercial is over, and you've forgotten the phone number to call and help, you just go on watching the television saying to your self that's not true and everything will be fine.  But you know it's not.
