The week before Winter Break we spent one class period making Found Poem posters to hang on the wall. The classroom looks very colorful!
Below are a few selected poems "written" by students in our class. Enjoy!
"Someone Was Watching"
They ran past their food.
"If this is some kind of joke - "
The room blurred and faded out.
Piggy banks were opened.
Maybe you think I was supposed to read your mind.
- Kevin. W (per. 2)
"The Moon's Full Silver"
Outside, the rain dripped
Shizuko wondered.
In fact, the truth surpasses imagination
but the sense of evil lingered.
You shall be the wolf.
- Andrea Z. (per. 1)
"Virtue, Knowledge, and Ignorance"
I am the wing.
The delicious cool saved us from the heat above
black as Black Beard's beard.
Very, very ugly.
They are awful berries.
- Raymond T. (per. 1)
"By the Midnight"
Three years ago on a spring evening
Seething, but not wanting to make a scene
I put the sunglasses on.
The window itself was different.
Of all the bouncing balls, the football is the most predictable.
- Patrick L. (per. 3)
