    I was lonely
    I was bored
    I felt like I couldn't go on
    Then someone came
    She came
    She helped
    She never gave up
    I learned
    I felt like I was able to do anything I wanted
    I was able to live a happy life.

    Fish

    Marcus Fredrich

    There was once a fish
    that was as blue as the ocean and as lonely as the dessert
    It was as skinny as a stick and hungry as a bear.
    One time it was never fed and jumped out of the tank and died.

    up and down

    she was blind and deaf today
    embarassed of what the others say
    she came from the bottom
    but at the end she triumph over to sucess

    “Born in Water” (Poem)

    See the little waves rushing across with a swooshing sound
    Looking for rainbow colored fish through the clear water
    Feeling the fresh clean water going through your finger tips
    Hearing huge splashes from strong waterfalls knowing they have legends
    Birds flow by looking for food and hearing them sing for the beautiful water
    The water makes rock along the side wet and moist
    Seeing rocks and animals skipping and sinking on the water
    Smelling fresh and clean water on a hot summer day

    you can be blind like the dark sky
    but you cant give up your dream
    you can be stuck like your shoe
    on the mud but you can be very
    smart on education

    You Can

    You can be deaf and see nothing
    but you can still be successful in life.
    You can have fake metal legs
    but you can still be an athlete.
    You can be anything
    as long as you don't give up
    and endure the hard times.
    You can do anything
    as long as you make a commitment.

    -Ava Aufdencamp

    Parents, No More
    Looking at my parents, only age 6.
    Feeling gone from where you are right now.
    Your mom her face red as an apple right dropped from a tree.
    Seeing your dad walk out house with your little baby brother.
    Running your eyes with tears off.
    Next thing you hear your mom screaming to tell you come in her room.
    You thought she would hit you,no she instead telling you to cut pictures of your dad.
    -Linda Ngo(:

    Blind and deaf
    confusion took over your body
    But the light will soon shine in your eyes
    the cool, glittery water rushed through your fingers!
    And there, it was water, you understood! it was water
    Finally, the wall is broken! you are free!
    Hellen Keller!

    Helen Keller could not tell dark from light
    her family hoped she soon might
    but never again did she see the light
    she did try and fight to see the light
    now today she give people the courage to fight
    with all their might
    so if Helen can fight with all her might
    so can you, so fight with all your might

    helen couldn't tll which it was day or night,
    but she cant give up her dreams when you are blind,
    but you can be very smart.

    Water
    Water is life
    Flies in the sky
    Comes down as rain
    You feel the water
    rush through your fingertips
    Can be feeled
    without sight
    That is water

    Twister

    A hungry hippo has come to town
    Fierce and strong
    It tears up everything
    It inhales everything
    Then it spits out bits and crumbs
    As it gets full
    It begins to pull
    Its heavy body out
    Leaving The Town of Ruins behind

    Fly but Autumn Stern

    Go, little bird
    Spread your wings and your knowledge
    Let nothing hold you down
    When you feel confused, I'll guide you
    When you are angry you can let it out
    On me, your own little teacher
    So fly, little bird, make your way through freedom.
    And let all spirits reign.

    City of Joy

    City of Joy
    consummate of human hopes

    City of Joy
    offer sunshine
    grant radiance and warmth

    City of Joy, City of Joy
