She was a little OK,

but there came a day,

she got married and

moved away.

She had no fright cuz

she wasn’t living so tight.

New clothes, new shoes,

new purses too; she even

got new hair do’s.

But there came a day her

sad wouldn’t go away.

They lost their trust; they

lost their faith.

Out she went-

 all alone on the streets without a home.

 The night has past;

 the day has come.

 Still nowhere to go;

nowhere to run.

 No food.

No water-soon to die.

She would head off for her

journey to the sky.

 Now an angel so high in the

sky, to earn her wings so

she can fly.

 With food and water-a house.

 With a home; with Jesus and God

she’ll never be alone.

 No worries; no cries; no saying

good-bye.

 Her nightmare is gone.

Her life has begun.

 Now take off the mask.

Stop living the past.

Have faith and be strong- just

keep moving on.

Love is here, 

                                     in the air.                                     

Love  is there,

and everywere.

Love hurts,

it causes pain. 

Just don’t be ashamed, 

about your feelings.

When I see you I get butterflies,

it’s like I’m flying from morning 

till night.

How I feel about you it kills

me inside.

It’s something I can’t deny.

It’s like a rollercoaster ride.

Every time you pass by. 

Love is something that has been

here for years.

It’s timeless.

My feelings for you are sincere and

forever shall be here!

When we say our goodbyes,

To our teachers, friends, and peers.

Before we begin a fresh new start

With new friends and new fears.

On the last day of school

Is when we say our final farewells.

Some well weep some will cry

And some will give a cheery goodbye.

You already know our teachers will cry

Because they don’t want to say goodbye.

For we are the students of 08-09

Victory and success will be mine.

FAREWELL HMS AND TO ALL  THE UPCOMING 7th and 8th GRADERS

By: Kristen Hardimon and Justice Donald

I woke up this morning
thinking about you.
I looked at the ceiling
I see me and you.
I walk in the hallways
I feel kind of blue.
I get a special hug
that special hug was from you.
She made my day.

When I look at you
and you look back at me,
you make me laugh
I feel so happy.
She made my day.

I asked you out on a date.
I can’t believe you said yes.
We back at home
you told me I was the best.
She checked in her back pocket
found a small note.
I asked her…
can you be my
sugary, strawberry-flavored,
banana smoothie float?
Yes was the answer.
She made my day.
