How did he get like that, well…
How should I know?
Wolf’s Eyes
They tell of
his bravery,
His entire life
and history,
I look and see a wolf watching me,
But in his eyes
it’s no surprise there is honor and loyalty,
Right there for
all to see.
Pond
Turtle, turtle
swimming by,
Zip, zoom,
buzz, there went a fly,
Splash, splosh
fish,
Make a wish,
Time to say
goodbye,
Me

The Wind
The wind blows
the world back and forth
It batters and
blows south, west, east, and north,
But can be
gentle enough to just barely blow grass,
And strong
enough to blow objects of large mass,
And not many
people can obtain,
A way to be
both without pain or strain
My Final Product Cause and
Effect Creation for Three Cups of Tea the Story of Greg Mortenson
Greg is an intelligent and friendly lad
And what
a goal he had
To climb
K2
Into the
sky of blue
He
thought of his goal as selfish and bad
When he
saw children learning dirt clad
Then a
new goal arose to be fulfilled
It was a
new school which Greg must build
He made
many improvements to the people’s lives
And
encouraged the education of the girls and wives
The
children now play in the school yard very loud
Greg is
sure his sister would be proud
Life
welcome warmth,
love laughter,
appreciate affection,
is to living as;
greeting greed,
obtaining obsessions,
declaring defeat,
is to grief.
