The dangerous lighting and row of thunder
are always nice to see
But when the weather is bad do
not go by a tree
Sometimes there's art in the sky
When the bad storm is over it is
dry
Finally the bad storm is over and now
we can rest
My heart is finally slowed down
in my chest
But when the weather is bad
do not go by a tree
The dangerous lightening and row
of thunder are always nice to see

I Am From Poem

I am from Mobile, AL
From Toulminville and
I am from a white house
Big, long, tall
I am from the trees that I hung on as a child
Tall medium size tree
I’m from Fox/Jackson and happy
From Lisa and Mark
I’m from the play at the park and ride a bike
From be the best you can be and love one another
I’m from women and children
Food, clean cloths
From the Marketries from a small to town

Standing still at down look
in close distances the view of Gulf Shores
students from STEAM
Weaving a great Dream
From Art, Math to Science
Many ways we can succeed
Standing still at down look
in close distances the view of Gulf Shores

The paintings were interesting For Me
I Really like to go and see
Some were big and some were small
they where all good overall
Some were interesting some where not
Some of them I truly Forgot
The Paintings were interesting for me
I Really like to go and see

The Tornadoes Don’t Discriminate
like people Discriminate on each other
Immigrants in New York
Ivory Towers looking auned
The luxury of it all
The camp by the sea
The Tornadoes Don’t Discriminate
like people Discriminate each on other

I Am From Poem
I am from book pages,
from vinegar and blue detergent
I am from the cat hair on the floor
pink, abundant, the city could never in where
I am from flowers
The whild flowers
like leaves home on my feet like
hot sand
every where
I’m from cooking and backing
from Paual Willis and Lydia Willis
I’m from math and reading
from “Please watch my brother” and
“Don’t let your brother bite you!”
I’m from Easter sunrises and dinner
at Christmas
I’m from Lizzre and Logan
Sponge candy and popcorn.
from my hard work mom refusal to go to
work
from my grandmom help out all the time
a low shelf in my old house is a stack
in the photo albums

I Love to dance
It’s Like I have ants in my Pants
Dance is my love
Makes me feel Like a dove
When I hear a beat
I can’t help but to move my feet
I Love to dance
It’s Like I have ants in my pant’s

S. Neal
I Am From Poem

I am from roadtrips
From gasoline and Doritos and sprite
I am from the screaming of kids
loud, shouts, never ending
I am from colorful tulips,
as they lined the walk
I’m from cooking and telling jokes
From neals and parkers
I’m from the reading and prayer
From act like a young lady and keep your clothes clean
I’m from church on Christmas and Halloween
I’m from sadness and tears
cheese cake, sugar straws
From the old pictures to load to laughs

squishy-wishy little fishy
you will make a tasty dishy
see that bait on bite my hook
I’ll reel you in; take a look
If you’re small, I’ll let you go
Toss you back so you can grow
squishy-wishy little fishy
you will make a tasty dishy

I Am From Poem

I am from Darkness
From the Archids and Pain of My own
I am from the depths of Mobile
As I walk, and walk, walk
I am from The things I think of
Imagination doesn’t exist only thought
I’m from Art and from life
From walking and walking
I’m from the world Itself and naturure
From “An’t a such thing as I can’t” and “from a saying
I’m from the Archids, wich watch you and u anlong
I’m from The day earth was made
But only Just a thought, As I walk, walk, walk
From the life Intrest I say “I see the person I hate” I put the knife down and think to myself mayby
another day….

You walk into a room
Nothing there but despair
You walk and walk
Then you see people who
Talk and walk but you
only walk but don’t talk at all
you try to talk but nothing come out
for you see there no mouth at all

I am from the Ink on paper

I am from Titanium dioxide
The material used in ink
I’m from Pens and pencils
From Mont Blanc and Cello
I’m from the Led and Nib
From Writing and Drawing
I’m from Section, lead cylinders
I’m from factories and companies
Cake, ice cream
From the writing utensil I was destined to be

I am from grass that grows through the sidewalk

These thing are creator of mejima product, without these things im not me.

In the museum on the wall
we saw things that were tall and small
inspiration before my time
our lives, generation entwined
These generations here came to mind
Testament to a different time
In the museum on the wall
we saw things that were tall and small
