4 The Poet s Corner Overwhelmed with bad news? Take a minute to relax and read a collection of poems from our talented sixth grade writers. Music Music is life, Music forever. Playing on and on, Stopping never. Drums, bells, Trumpets, horns. Flutes, cymbals, And so much more! Music is life, Music forever. I love music When I ll stop? Never! Ripples Ripples across the water, Sun casts a tangerine orange. Dusk has fallen upon us, Twilight will soon come. Ripples of somber black, Bright moon shining down. Starlight sparkles, Twinkling Shining. Ripples of the rising sun, Coming again once more. Water as clear as the cobalt sky, Noon, the sun is high. Ripples of the evening light, It s time for night to come. Every day is an endless circle, Like ripples on the water. Author: Macy Hall Editors: Dru Grace, Jason Nguyen, Trinity Brooks, and Trey Harmon Stars! Stars shining bright at night. Putting off a lot of light. Shooting stars across the sky. Soaring way, way up high. Always shining really bright. Creating patterns left and right. They never ever go away. You just can t see them in the light of day. Stars, stars - everywhere. Never forget- they re always there! Author: Makena Wurtz Editors: Mary Thomas Smith, Clinton Jackson, and Brantley Philmon
