If Everyone was PeacefulBy Annie Crisler

Page 3: Poems Galore

If everyone was peaceful

We would never feel left out

We would never feel like we had to cry or shout

We would always be invited to each other’s events

We would not have enemies

We would not have wars

There would be no hatred

If everyone was peaceful

Page 4: Poems Galore

It wouldn’t matter our skin tone

Our friends wouldn’t care

the color or lengthof our hair

we would always say, “Please’’ and “Thank you”

If everyone was peaceful

Free CandyBy Brodie Crisler

If the candy store gave away candy, I would go to get all the free candy I want!

Hershey bars and chocolate chips, Icees and candy corn, Laffy taffy and gummy fish.

Lemon heads, and popcorn,Cotton candy, and cherry pops I could have candy for breakfast, lunch, and dinner Day and night Free candy all the time.

My Wish for the World…By Bryan Ramos

My Wish for the WorldIs we are all inA Mario game.

We have to collect coins.We are trying to Find a mushroomSo we can get big.

We can jump high.We can wall jump.

We need to find fire flowersTo give us points.

We will smush monstersOn the way though.

My wish for the worldIs we are all in a Mario game.

No SmokingBy Hunter Hays

My wish for the worldIs no more smoking.It can give you cancer`And I’m not joking!

Also, you`ll smell like smoke.It will be hard to breath.And your teeth will be yellow.

So either stop the madness Or continue the sadness…

The World as I See It…By Ian Jones

I see the world as a giantVideo gameWhere everything is digitalized.Its is a dark place.

It has black buildings,Gray grassAnd red skies.Everyone is evil.

We fight, we hike,We shoot, we loot.

But wait…it’s morning.It was all a bad dream.

I wish I had super powers,So I would be able to fly Straight up, straight up So high in the sky.
