Harry, I love you so Your beautiful looks, too many to name When I'm sad you always find a way to cheer me up I am so glad we got you, Harry Life itself would be nothing without you I love you purr because I know that you're happy Even when you are at your worst, I still love you just as much You are wonderful and amazing Harry, you may never know how much I love you Your perfect features; your face, eyes, and meow Oh Harry, how I love you so

Ode to Mrs. Light If only you could see all the smiles you bring me If only you could see all the help you give me  If only you could see all the times you help me

Than you would know what it is like to have a teacher like you.

You help me with all my problems You help me with all my work You help me with all my respect

You help me know what it is like to have a teacher like you

No matter what, I will be so proud to call you my teacher.

THANK YOU!

Friendship

By: Leyden O.

Friendship is priceless,

And can never be forgotten,

Friendship is timeless,

And never rotten.

It takes more than hugs and kisses

To be a true friend,

The nature of friendship,

Requires a blend.

The road to a happy life,

May sometimes makes up stumble,

But to have a friend to give us a hand,

Teaches us to be humble.

Good friends are hard to find,

Hard to lose,

And impossible to forget,

But when they fly away,

Your anger turns to regret.

Sometimes in life, we need a special person

To listen while we talk.

A special person who will not discourage or judge,

But encourage us as we walk.

Friends are there

To help you along,

The journey through friendship,

Is always long.

In life,

There are big ships,

And there are small ships,

But the best ship of all,

Is friendship.

Cousin to Cousin  By: Leyden

Well, girl, I'll tell ya: Life ain't been no day in the snow. It's had blizzards, And frost bite, And times when we have no one there to help us, And when you just can't keep up-- Alone. But all this time, I've been helping you, And messing up sometimes, And keeping you going, And giving you advice When you're going through hard times. So, honey, don't you back down. Don't you give up now 'Cause you'll find it harder to get back up. Don't you quiet down-- For I'm still getting through things, I'm still going, And life for me ain't been no day in the snow.
