The Secret Place

A poem by Anna | 4/7/2008

Let us rule in places fair
Come along, the road is wide.
Our hearts are brave, our cloaks are made,
Our horses saddled; wave goodbye.

Let me take you far away
I’ll bear you to the stars.
We’ll travel by a road of rainbows
Paved by morning dawn.

Roses then will be our guides,
Clouds our beds for sleep,
Trees and sky our closest friends,
If you just follow me.

Aerial

A poem by Sarah H | 2/25/2008
Soaring, flying,
gliding on the wings of the wind.

Rising higher,
than the very clouds.

Wind rushing,
ruffling my hair.

I scream,
ecstatic, turning downwards;

Free-falling,
for hundreds of feet;

Pulling up
at the last second,

Flying.

Whipping around pinnacles of rock,

Daydreams

A poem by Tamerah | 7/13/2007

Somewhere out there
Under the ocean
Up in the air
Over that hill
Among the trees
Something is calling
Calling to me

Its a bird singing its song
Its the wind in the grass
Its the frog in the pond

Its everything I'm not
And everything I want to be
Its everything I've got
And its everything I need

Its where the birds fly
Its where the fish swim
Its more than just getting by

Dreamland

A poem by Matthew | 6/6/2007

Sitting at my big computer
Hoping that things don't get duller
I close my eyes
And cross my hands
And enter my own dreamland

Trees that rise one-hundred feet tall
A thief scaling a castle wall
I'm over here
And around there
Everywhere in my dreamland

There are no lessons and no school
No smacking rods or useless rules
Just me and my
Own little self
Traveling in my dreamland
