God's Fruits

God's fruits have the smell of heavenly air

God's fruits are the sun, the moon and the stars

Sweetness like love and wisdom are God's fruits

The fruits wear soft, silky and smooth bathrobes

You can hear the sound of joy, peace and cheer

Cinquain

My Bedtime Carebear

Me, him

Sleep on the clouds

Only on moon-full nights

Mysteries, secretively

Me, him

Cries
Why is this heart crying out loud?
Are the cries bitter like vinegar?
Are the cries heart-wrenching like Cinder's?
Will it ever stop moping around?
Unless.. it was filled with sweets and sugar!

Diamante

Tasty vegetable Healthy vegetable

French fries

Sweet and salty

Love it! Smelly, yummy, squishy

Cool, McDonald, vegetables?; yucky, greeny

Healthy, smell bad, flowery, hardy

Huge and round

Broccoli

Limerick

There once was a man called Marcus

Whom lost his paintbrush in his heart

He had his surgery

In the planet Mercury

And then he let out his last fart

Haiku

Physical Education

What is P.E. like?

Sweat? Being fit? Or get stressed?

Having many fun!

Alphabetic Poem

The animal's party

Adder, alligator, alpaca, and antelope

Baboon, badger, may be barracuda, too

Camel, caribou and the cool common cent

Do decoy, deer and dormouse all meet here?

Elk, eel and emu? Where else can they be?

Face to face with ferret, fox and unforgettable falcon

Got the goons in gull, galah and grouse?

Hawk didn't eat the honeybee or the hornet!

It eat the ibis, impala and inchworm

Jaguar ate jam with jellyfish stuffed jackrabbit

Kangaroo kicked kittens to the killdeer

Loon had let the lotus fly to the lynx

Macaw and magpie made mink a mane

Nightingale bore a newt in her nest

Octopus and otter went out to the ocean

Passenger pigeon gave panda a peppermint

Quail quizzed quetzal about Queens

Rattle snake gave robin a rhododendron

Seahorse were playing seesaw with the seashell on the sea

Tulips were given to tarantula by tapir

United Kingdom uses unicorns instead of horses

Vulture is the only vet in the veneer

Woodpecker made a wolf statue by his waterbed

X-mas was meant for animals x-cept x-ray scared them

Yak made yoke for yellow jacket

Zebra ate zinnia and zucchini

Narration

The door said "Hello!", as I walked in the house.

Its doorknob shook my hand, and squeaked like a mouse.

Opening in front of me: my world, where I would fly free.

Inside, Max, my dog, lying

With my cat - Nermal, cuddling

They raised their heads and ears

As I walked into the room, quietly

Max stood up, and smiled at me

"I've missed you lots, you see!"

He nuzzled me in happiness

His smile brightened my day again

Nermal jumped on my lap swiftly

Kind, beady eyes looked straight at me

Speaking right into my ming

"You're back, so now I'm fine!"

His purrs kept me petting him forever

How I wish that time wouldn't fly!

How I wish I didn't leave them behind!

For then Max-the dog had died

And Nermal-the kindest kitty, was eaten alive

I cannot hide my sadness

Somehow, I feel the guiltiness

Abstract

NightTime

As the moon shone above our heads,

God told me a story I'll never forget

Of when Vietnam and America first met.

Wind whined at the wounding windows

Turnip tossed and tooted at the turn of days

Laughter looped and leaked through lines

The anger in their hearts were devilish and cruel

Their flaming eyes burnt down the enemies

Their burning weapons, like devil's horns

The dull moon soon hid behind the blue smog

The door creaked, and peaked at the sickness

The light may stay, but the clouds pray to leave

Bombs boomed as time flies on

Bullets shot, zoomed, teared the sky

A loud crash whooshed through the night

As the whale sail, the storm cry no more

The day sang and rang, a song so delightful

Not far from sight, the sun once again shined.

Emotional

The Blues

Whenever I am lonely, I grab the phone

I dialed the number of my dearest friend

And that one, whom which I'll talk to for hours

But, before:

Whenever I was lonely, I opened a wooden door

Running into my mom's arms, I told her

Every single hurt and burden I kept inside

She'll listen, and share the pain with me

We'll talk till morning comes if I'm helpless

We'll snuggle all night long if I'm scared

That's why I've loved her,

With all my heart.

Acrostic

Grade Six

Great and funny

Really good friend

Accommodating and confident

Difficult to work with and indifferent

Eerie, sinister, and kinda creepy

Sensitive, sweet and totally sexy

Incredibly intelligent

X-mas is the best holiday

Sonnet

Everytime I wander

Looking up the sky, wishing you are here

Staring at the stars, thinking they're your eyes

I thought I might love you, I always fear

I always want you stay here by my side

The times I tried to fly I always failed

Without your love, I cannot concentrate

You had made me feel like a nightingale

I fly all around, with love full of faith

Sometimes I got sad, sometimes I might hide

Maybe I will run, and don't want to stay

But when I saw you, I feel very fine

When you are for me, I am much okay

I know I was born to make you happy

I know you would love me for being me

Quiet Love
Does quiet love of a broken heart exist?
Yes, for I had a broken love in me.
A boy with a cold-heart started it, you see!
My heart is surrounded by fog of mist,
For then the love from me he had resist
I wish he was a gift I've got for free,
I would drink him, if he was the blue sea.
If he's a star, I'd catch him, but I'd miss.

But still the love he gave me was a bliss.
I sat with him in a blue lagoon.
I tasted his warm lips from his hot kiss.
Oh, I wish his love didn't end so soon,
For he gave me a love I couldn't miss!
How I hope his heart will come back at noon.

Free Verse

My friends

I have old friends and new friends

My friends are good in someway

They are kind in somewhere inside

They are lovely somehow

But some of them get on my nerves

I sometimes wonder

Are they good friends

Or bad friends of mine?

They are kind when time's good

They left me there

Whenever I went low

I might get mad

And some way sad

But I'm glad

To have friends

In new school like this

Forget their faults

I planned to do

But they never give me a chance

Remember little kindness

I thought I should

But never got a chance to pay back

However I'm still glad

To be friends with them

Repetition

Hallelujah
The angels in the sky sang
"Alle, alle, allelujah!"
Hallelujah
The harps twinkled softly
Like a sweet lullaby
Hallelujah
Lightning bolted, thunder thumped
As the heaven cracked open
Hallelujah
"Holy and glorious Lord", they sang
Make way for the almighty God
Hallelujah
And He began to speak
As the ground trembled beneath
Hallelujah
Voice as loud
Yet calm like waves at night
Hallelujah
"Angels", He said
"Let us bless the world another day!"
Hallelujah
The angels hurried to work
Sending the lambs sweet dreams
Hallelujah
They prayed for all corners on Earth
Remember the phrase "Bless you!"
