Spooky Pizzeria – BEWARE!

By Navi R. and Cole C.

The suspense builds up

Waiting for pizza and soda

Your breathing gets heavy

Got my favorite pizza

You feel someone watching

On March 1978

Your body gets overwhelmed

It’s the same shape and it’s perfecto

Is my life over?

I got a slice out

Your brain hurts

Large perfecto

Something bad is soon going to happen

Sitting with silence with a crowd, please yes

You black out

Me, myself waiting at the table

The Perfecto Slice

By Cole C.

The me myself waiting at the table

Waiting for pizza and soda

Sitting at silence with a crowd, please yes

Got my drink

It’s so bubbly that I can imagine

At March 19, 1978

Got my favorite pizza

Large perfecto

I got a slice out

It’s the same shape and it’s perfecto

It’s just so good

The taste the smell

It’s too good to be true

Field of Flowers

By Cole C.

A field of flowers

Being as beautiful as the sun

Ceiling of our plantation

Dock the plants to a garden shed

Bickering to the people

Even the plants bicker

Don’t do anything

To tinker the plants.

Eeling em

Giving what the plants as survive

Flowering the flourish

Hell goes away

Goes to heaven

Chiming the flowers

Hatred goes around

As popularity rises

Oliver’s ACORNS!!!

By Whitman G. and Morgan F.

Oliver hates ACORNS

rejects them from squirrels

Squirrels hate him

crushes acorns with sledgehammer

Safe of Secrets

By Audrey and Oliver

No key no hope trapped millions or

more

Millions of secrets in the room flowers

bloom with a darkened groom

Secrets are truthful secrets don’t

lie secrets are hurtful but they

keep you alive

Colors

By Audrey

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple

are all colors of the Rainbow

there are enough colors to enjoy

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink

are all colors of the rainbow

there are enough colors to like

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink

there are lots of colors

there are lots of colors

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, white

there are lots of colors

these are all colors I like

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, white

there are enough colors to enjoy

these are all colors I like

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple
