Poems

Winter’s End

By Chloe Willis

When the grass is damp

And the daffodils grow

And the soil shines with melting snow

And the birds come back

And the cool winds blow

And petunias wait for the cold to go

When the leaves are green

And the animals wake

And dragonflies flutter ‘round the lake

And the crickets chirp

And the new twigs break

And the salmon return for old times’ sake

When the ground is hard

And the rain is cold

And the wood in the attic blooms with mold

And the sky is gray

And the clouds are bold

And the dying grass is tinged with gold

When the golden sun

Comes along

And ushers Winter to be gone

And the river runs

And the days are long

And the birds come out to sing their song

Let it be known

That the seasons have changed

And Spring has come to town.

Spring 

by: Anonymous

Spring is mental health season

The time for new beginnings

When you stop fighting with your friends 

And instead of playing video games you take the dogs for a walk

Or take a shower

Where you start baking cookies

And go out for ice cream with your family

And your parents don’t fight as much

And you take pictures downtown

Spring is the season where it sunny rains

And there are double rainbows

And when you stand outside you get wet

But it feels good

Spring is the time when you go over to your friends house

And you have barbecue and cold drinks

And you just feel nice

Spring is the time when you start to feel whole

Greens & Beans

By: Liam

Grass is green, it has arrived again. Green oh green, my old friend. Once I realized that it's showers once more, I remember green and his flowers and once again.. my old friend. Power is one thing, but green is another. If you hold onto it tight and don't let it go, you may consider it a brother. Grass is green, beans are red, I may consider that you go to the shed. In that shed, spread the green and the bean submarine. Don't intervene and spread the beans. Rub the beans on your belly, get all smelly, and don't tell Shelly. Spread the beans, and the greens.
