Extra Bingo Poem

Elisha

Caring, Cautious, Curious

Relative of Lyric, Barry, and Melissa

Who loves babysitting, Clarinet, and music

Who feels confused, loved, and fearful

Who needs sleep, friends, and God

Who gives care, an ear, and a hug

Who fears hippos, death, the unknown

Who'd like to see God and world peace

Who dreams of perfection

A student of Clarinet

Cairns 

Sensory Poem

Feels like hot water or scratchy quilts.
Tastes like jalapenos, lemons, and mac and cheese.
Looks like a broken hour glass or a shattered mirror.
Sounds like a shrieking owl or nails on a chalkboard.
Smells like burning rubber and rotten eggs.
Makes me feel exasperated, irritable, and outraged.
Anger

Art Response Poem

Music flows through the heart like blood.
Calming the listener or hyping them up.
The Clarinet fills the room with a sweet melody.
The guitar strums out energetic rhythms.
The notes fly off the page as the musician plays.
Beautiful major chords mingle with minor ones.
Passion is heard and seen as the Clarinetist sways.
The guitarist loves it too as he taps his foot.
Neither would know what to do without music.
Both would be lost in a world of unexpressed emotions.

Borrowed Poem

Borrowed from Gordon Parks

The world smiled in on them.

Holding their newborn baby girl.

She was to tiny and so new.

Her eyes opened and closed.

"The most beautiful thing,"

her mother said,

"I've seen in all my years."

Her father chuckled to himself,

as the little baby yawned.

His wife he loved with all his heart

           since they engaged in '87.

                 But now today in '95 he learned something new.

           Love at first sight exsists, he thought

            when you have such a beautiful baby girl.
