Dereck Temlin–Echo Poem

“Follow Your Path”

Make sure to follow your path

Follow your path if there is nowhere to go

where to go is your time to show

time to show is your time to glow

time to glow to be the light way in your path

in your path, there is only one test

only one test you have to be the best

Be the best of the rest

of the rest, we don’t cause a wrath

cause wrath you might not follow your path.  

 

Mikayla Seidel–Echo Poem

She went shopping at the mall

At the mall she bought clothes

She bought clothes that made her happy

Made her happy it did indeed

It did indeed help her self image

Her self image was finally good enough

Finally good enough it was

Enough it was to convince her friends

Convince her friends that she was

that she was beautiful inside and out

Inside and out she loved herself

She loved herself thanks to her shopping

To her shopping at the mall

 

Elena Miranda–Sensory Poem

Depression is deep blue

It smells like a cold, hard rain on your skin

It tastes like blood in your mouth

It sounds like echoing voices that tell you your aren’t good enough

It feels like you’re drowning but there’s  no water

It looks like a tunnel with no light at the end

Depression is having weights shackled to your limbs and mind for eternity

 

Kali Borger–Blackout Poem

 

I ache, Mother, I ache.  

I’ll die, I bet.

Mother and Father drop down, frightened.  

I did die; my heart had been deep where water drowns me.  

 

Gavin Cerco–Echo Poem

 

Snow starts melting fast

Starts melting fast due to fire

Due to fire, the snow is gone

Snow is gone after the fire burned long.

Fire burned long after being fed.

After being fed the wood and oil.

Wood and oil ignited the flames.

Ignited the flames that destroyed the snow.

Destroyed the snow and made the wintery night disappear.

Wintery night disappeared and made many children disappointed.

Many children disappointed when there was no snow the next day.

The next day the snow was gone and happiness was lost.
