“Sweet Doctors”
by Matthew Doban
I know about eyes,
But I never knew they could sparkle,
Until I saw you
I know hearts could beat slowly,
But I never knew they could race,
Until I saw you
I knew faces had details,
But I never knew they could light up your day,
Until I saw you
“My Dumb Annoying Lifesaving Allergies”
by Helena Barrett
Summer is my favorite season
You can bike around the neighborhood,
With no reason
But as the cold winds start to grow,
It is time for summer to go
Then comes fall and after there’s winter
Then this dimwitted ice starts to splinter and quake
And then there’s spring,
Give me a break!
Dad’s old car is covered in yellow
My friend keeps on sneezing
That poor poor fellow
My nose is always running
That pollen is so cunning!
Spring is such a fool
It’s really not that cool
Except for last Friday
When spring made me stay home
From school!
“Hero”
by Maria Plioutas
A hero is not just someone like Superman or Batman
A hero cares, they will always be by your side
Remember that day you cried?
Well the person that was there for you—
That was your hero.
So many people in the world are heroes.
Next time you look at someone
Think about what makes them a hero
Because everyone is a hero deep inside
You might even be a hero too
