Dream of Hope
-Max Hotei

Slowly as my guitar gently weeps
my melodic tones puts you into deep sleep
Each chord is played from a never ending abyss
that puts your state of mind into complete bliss.

A gift from God? Or a gift from Man?
Doesn't matter how one depicts only if he can understand.
Joy and happiness is all you should ever look for
only then will you experience a new level of peace in which you have never seen before.

Nation to Nation peace will be known a far
All from a single note played from my guitar

... Now Live!

Oh Sun, oh Sun, oh Sun,
Under you I have so much fun,
So many memories with you I have
Most of them happy—out weighting the sad
I am glad you shine so bright above
Because of you I swim in the ocean like a sub
Marine life is all around me
Swimming, jumping, splashing
Having tons of fun

Oh Sun, oh Sun, oh Sun
You are my one true love
I feel your warm rays upon my skin
And the sweat dripping off
My forehead down to my chin
You fill my eyes with light
So I can see what I need to see
I am open to you
Fill me with energy

Oh Sun, oh Sun, oh Sun
When I look at you there is no surprise
I look at you and your beauty fills my eyes
You fill my life with divine light
I know you love me with all your might
You shine so bright
No matter the day
No matter the night.

this smile
can be left up for hours
maybe even days
this smile
is innocent and sweet
this smile
wants others to mimick
this smile
means happiness and love
this smile
is misjudged
this smile
is fake and at times of pain

The Scar
-Ramy Abdulmalek

This scar on my finger
This memory of pain
The scar of a fighter
Who strived to win
The scar in my mind
The one i live with
Its a reminder of who i am
A fighter and a street guy
This scar is the sign
The sign of my history
Brutality and anger
Its the last memory of my life
The one i left behind
The one that built me

His locks swing from side to side,
he moves and rhymes with so much pride.
His style is unique and one of a kind,
He has a most excellent mind.
His verses are deep and clever,
I can't see another doing it any better.
Jesus Christ he's blessed.
Damn I can't help it,I'm obsessed.

Derrick Virassammy said...

God is good, god is great
The things he helps me with, I truly appreciate
Helping me through the times that are rough
I don't know if it's possible to thank him enough
He has blessed me with terrific things
He is the king, of all kings
He's given me great family and friends
I hope his caring for me never ends
Thank you God for all you do
I really do truly, appreciate you

Worshipping a Family
Talei Tagivakatini

To praise a mother
is like going down an endless road of "Thank yous"

To praise a grandfather
is like sitting next to a fire listening to a bunch of history stories telling me to go to sleep

To praise a grandmother
is like sitting in a class learning how to grow up

To praise a brother
is like having a friend that you could never hate no matter what

To praise yourself
is like taking test where only you know the answers

To praise a family
is like swimming in a bottomless ocean of love

Ode to My Socks

Thick and fuzzy
Thin and smooth
Knee high
Or ankle high
In a variety of colors
red
pink
purple
blue
and they must always come in a pair of two
stripes and polka dots
hearts and stars
plain white is out of the question
colors galore
is what I look for
these two are usually accompanied by another two
my shoes
I adore my socks
I really do
and to my sock fetish I will always be true

Ode to my Pen
-Amir Thomas

Oh how I love my pen.
I love how it's expression flatters me.
With it's inky blackness it cannot lie how much it means to me.
It's lines never lie on a white paper surface,
It remains loyal to it's master and draws what I want it to.
It performs perfection in all situations, and will never let me down.
O how I love my pen

Throughout my 17 years being alive, I have always praised how lucky I am to be able to play in all sports, but mainly baseball and basketball. My father always been a die hard Giants fan and I have followed his foot steps. I have lots of interest in all bay area team and that includes the A's. Even though they are cross city rivals, I still root for them because they represent the bay area. Ever since I was around the age of 8, I have been playing baseball. I have met all my close friends because of the "American past time". Beginning high school was a huge change, freshman year I played on the JV baseball and basketball team. After getting a taste of high-school competition, I became more passionate and praised than ever. I would lift weights, run, work on my skills all summer. Which led me to making varsity baseball and basketball my last year as a sophomore. Every year it makes me want to get better and better, and I became more dedicated, I got to work on the more important things; school.

Frank Sinatra
his songs are so classic
his voice is strong
some say he's jurassic
but i say they're wrong

people say his musics to old
i say its witty and bold
i think his songs are cool
everyone who doesn't like it is a fool

Makeup
-Rosheen Massoumi

gold, silver, black, pink
shades and sticks and glosses
it takes a true artist
to take your messy medium
and transform it into beauty
pink, black, silver, gold
when I'm not at my peek
you sheild me with your cover
until i can recover

Dreaming
Ethan Switzer

Heavy eyes linger in the darkness,
It envelopes and hides you,
A disguise not even you can recognize,
Sorrow, Joy, Love, and Disdain,
All pour out from between the hairs,
Swirl around you and and change,
Into things that we can recognize.

They distort themselves,
Contort themselves,
Into anything, anywhere, anyone,
Infinitesimally different,
They twist and grow until we feel.

WATS GOoD LIL DADDY!!

jonyng said...

my XBox 360 is magic
it always gets me to play it like an addict.
no matter how bored I am
i just have to turn it on.
play a few games and the boreness will be gone.
when i am tired with a game
i only have to switch to another.
then i will be playing for some other hours.
as a reward at least
i have never stopped serving it with game discs.
i make sure the controllers have batteries
so next time i can play immediately.
it is always fun
and i guess it will always be.

Soccer
By Edher Gutierrez

You are my active desire
without you in my life,you are a burning fire.
Kicking the ball in the hot sun,
brings to me so much fun.
Even though the running can wear me down,
I love it when I score and the crowds shouts.
You know you are the only sport that i will forever play,
with out soccer the world wouldn't be the same.

DaMn LoVe- **KeNyA**

it flows in my viens
its my addiction
to feel it is no shame

it brings me grief
and bleeds my heart to death
the pain is never brief

i feel sick and chocked up
damn love
why do you have to show up

you bring me pain
and never ending tears
you are my worst fear

why must you make me fall
why make me cry
you make me beg and crawl

you bring heartache and sorrow
bringing me down
my mind panics for tomorrow

damn love!
why do you have to be in my viens
my life needs you
you are the undying flame

love brings me down
but picks me up
it takes away my frown

love you are sweet
you are me
love you are my need

you take over my soul
my body...
my whole

you are a holy desire
at times ..
a sinful burning fire

each breath without you my soul chokes
i roll and light it up
i inhale your sweet addicting smoke

your taste is indulging
smooth ,bitter,dark,light
so sweet but harming

your influence always remains
i always feel you
stuck with you,all in chains

with you my life is never the same

love you represent
you are family,friends,
lover and God.

Damn love,
sweet,
addicting,
painful,
caring.
the worlds forever love.

SUMMER
by Monika Kniley

The clear, crisp air,
Summer is near.
It awakens my inner child,
Laughing and free.
Once more I can run,
Once more to dance.
Once more I can play in the sunshine
Nature brings forth change.
I laugh at the simpleness,
That makes me young again.

Tacos
-Alex Leon

You are the flavor of my life
you are my afternoon delight
Your taste in my mouth is what i desire
Tacos i really admire
As the meat and tortillas enter my tummy
I yell out,"Wow thats yummy!"
Tacos, Tacos are so great
If i was president they would be my running mate

I skateboard, don't walk,
A cognitive sense of being,
My only escape.

Halloween
- Ari Agress

You are the joy of my night
You are my surprise of every fright
Ghosts and monsters roam the streets
They creep and screech beneath their bed sheets
Candy is what they desire
Their great costumes is what I admire
When the night is done, and the candy is all gone
Lighting my porch on fire, will help me retire

Carla said...

Ode to my Friends

Without them there would be no me
They complete me
hold me down through my worst
and although the do not usually come first
They are always there
They come in many different colors, sizes and ages.
They are the my colorful pages from my book of life.

Reg aka king of kat said...

Ode To a thing called Music:

My Concentration.
Nothing can help me better,
when a task needs to be complete.
Its there when I am down trodden.

Music is the perfect soul mate.
It never yells when you make mistakes, and its always on your side,
no matter how guilty you are
of the crime.

Music takes you to places,
you can only dream about.
And can give you emotions
you have never heard about.

Music is a hands on experience.
Its the only thing that can keep me going besides God.
Music has never let me down
and I will do my best
to never let IT down.

My family, strong and united
like the u.S.A. should be.
My family, with bonds that don't break or crack.
Even in times of crisis, my family's bonds are tested and pass.

RosheenMassoumi said...

I'm a little bird
but I still can't fly
soccer is my world
and I'm scared to die.

I'm a little cat
cute like the girls said
I ain't wear no hat
I wear my braids instead.

Music

95 is the tempo of life, my life,
Turn the bass up in my headphones so I'm not alone tonight,
Slow my mind down while the world is moving faster than the speed of light,
With music in my ears I'll be alright.
I said Music,
With music theres no need to worry or be scared,
If you have a problem music will be right there,
No matter how you feel or what your going threw,
Music will be the one who support you.
I said Music,
I got to say you were my first love,
A heaven sent blessing from the skys above,
You gave my heart a bass kick when it didn't have a beat,
I got to say i wish music could adopt me.
Yes, I said Music.

Ray ya kno me

Praise Poem

The sun hits my skin so soft and warm,
The air travels through my locked and curled hair,
My big brown eyes are able to view everything,
My height is not to short but not to tall,
I have everything a 17 year old could want,
As I watch cars go by, planes go by, and boats go by I ask myself will I ever be able to soar and fly?
I really don't know; but I'll try!

EGGLO

That fat ball of fur
that wakes me up in the morning
Full of joy to see me awake
Whever i go
you follow
with your paw making that
clickity-clack noise
When I'm without you
I am not the real me
I come home to see you jumping around
And it makes my day all better
Sure you may begrouchy as hell sometimes
And you may even ignore me at times
But even when you do that
you are the most important thing in my life

music so sweet
its what i turn to
to feel complete
and be one with that beat
that thumpin and bumpin
so stylisticly unique
i do my dance
in your favor
blissful moments
that i wish i could savor
lyrics relating to my every experience
no wonder i cant get enough of this
music so sweet

Praise Poem By:C.Asuncion

Every morning I wake up
I thank god
for the gift and talent he gave me.
I was made to sing.

On my way to school I listen to the inspiring music and sing my heart out.
Depending on what the songs are about.

My beautiful lyrics I write each and every night
reflects my life.

Music is my life
My passion
My love
My inspiration
My joy
I will love it till I die.

Second Praise Poem
-C.Asuncion

Darn it he's so fine.
I can't believe that he's mine.
I think about his beautiful smile all the time.
I found love ever since we first kiss.
That I will always miss.

Darn I cant wait to see him again since the first time.
Your warm hugs and candy kisses kept me alive.

How could you make me so sad just by missing you.
Why are you so far away.
But I love you boo.
And although your far away,
My love for you will always stay.

they'd help me win races

i praise my feet
i play soccer in cleats

Ayla Nietschmann said...

you are only what i want you to be.
the shadow of me
i wont let you breath or even see

i thought i didn't belong
the real me?
who was i?

i couldn't answer that question.
did i still have a face?
a mind of my own?


so i ran
across cities and towns
i came back

i came back to my roots
where i thought i belonged
trying to find myself along the way.

did i find me?
im not sure.

Tats is a way of life
Expresses what I want to show inside
Expressed by drawing and colors that fill my eyes
Some people cry
Some people laugh
When the art needle gets into the skin.
I just smile and laugh because a creation is here to stay

Reg aka king of kat said...

Sometimes my anger get the best of me,its not hard to see,is something that I express,very shallow and grotesque,I feel that I need to control my emotions,because it seems like I'm going through the motions,surprisingly seen as a challenge,this is something that needs to be balance,in order to keep thing straight,this is a problem that has to seperate,for its likes a discribation,which can bring up to much attention,that might cause an altercation,and have no explanation

Praise Poem 1
[my clumsy heart]

My clumsy heart has two left feet
It always trips when I see you
It starts to race and skip a beat
My clumsy heart has two left feet
It's starting now to feel the heat
Because of all the things you do
My clumsy heart has two left feet
It always trips when I see you

Praise Poem 2
[my love]

Your lips speak soft sweetness
Your touch a cool caress
I am lost in your magic
My heart beats within your chest

I think of you each morning
And dream of you each night
I think of your arms being around me
And cannot express my delight

Never have I fallen
But I am quickly on my way
You hold a heart in your hands
That has never before been given away
