Poetry

I&#160;sit here and wait So eager to move onward But it's all in vain

We sit in silence, waiting for the day to be set free, getting out of our houses, with smiles of glee.

Roses are red, Violets are blue, I love sleep And you should, too. &#160;

This virus is a whole big mess I know it can cause a lot of distress. Times are tough and will maybe get tougher, but remember the others. Now let&#8217;s show compassion and be kind to one another.&#160; This virus could tear us apart, but we can still be connected heart to heart. This virus has brought anger and stress, but I wanted to let you know that you are all the best!

This is bad, Covid-19 is a hag, We want to go back, to a place that we wouldn't give a chance, that is school, we are fools to think that we didn't need this place, but now we got something to face.

Stuck at home Nothing to do Nowhere to go Caged like an animal Can't wait to do what I want to

During these times, we have to stick together not lose our heads. If we do, we'll all end up dead.

Life Poem Life is like a bite. It is unexpected.

Home Poetry Home is where you make it. At school, or of course, home.

Virus - A Haiku Meandering thoughts A human, scary virus Whilst watching the fear

To My Students We grew together as humans Learning to find our way To be ourselves And dare not stray We started as strangers But over the months grew To become a family Like one we never knew We are experiencing uncertain times Choosing to be a light In a world turned upside down I know we will be alright We are apart that's true Yet never will I forget you In my heart, you'll always be A very special part of me

Here I sit In complete isolation. All of us separated by the invisible. I would reach out to you, But a simple elbow touch wouldn&#8217;t do. Lysol spray has become perfume (and for boys cologne), Hand sanitizer has become hand lotion, The news has become the Bible.

Here we are separated from each other. We stretch out far and wide, but always find ourselves side by side. The virus can tear us apart but we&#8217;ll always come together. Through thick and thin we are connected. We always come out stronger than ever.

Roses are red April is grey I hope we can leave our houses in May.

Lonely days fade into months Only myself to talk to No friends Even ways of making new ones Longing for someone to talk to Yet there is no way

Your Faith Should Be Strong There Are Times When Things Go Wrong&#160; Sometimes It Will Get Tough&#160; But Life Is Not Always Rough You Can Not Have A Rainbow Without Rain&#160; It Just Snowed&#160; And It&#8217;s A Big Pain

Roses are red Violets are blue When I look outside All I see is quarantine&#160;

I get the ball Cross up a defender Go to the corner and Shoot a three pointer The crowd goes wild And I get my team the win!

Stranger Danger He let our eyes meet. His were as dark as the sea. He offered me his seat. Now, I am an abductee.

I am a shark Who has no rhyme&#160; Because I got no time I don't like it because it is not fun&#160; And I'm a nun&#160; I eat fish&#160; Even though I'm lavish But what I'd really like is a kinsh

This is a hard time Only because we feel alone Maybe we should show up to dinnertime Staying in our room is making us unknown Everything will be okay There will be a cure Maybe not today Just stay positive and play School will be back before we know it Then it will be fun Only a little bit At the end, it's all done

From our classroom to the world, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the healthcare workers, truck drivers, grocery store employees, military personnel, and all other essential workers who are putting their lives at risk each day. We are very grateful! You are true heroes! Bless you!

A Book of Poems Inspired by Unsettling Times

Created by Mrs. Raikes's 7th Grade Classes During Covid 19-2020

Roses are red violets are blue I'm so over this pandemic too...

It started a virus who knew now it's a pandemic I'm stuck in it with you...

It started in China and then it grew then once again the pandemic flew...

It all started with China they ate bat soup that started it all what's next rat soup...

I know we are in quarantine I hope you're all well someday we'll meet again and it will be swell...
