Athletes

By Joe Murray

I am an athlete,

trying to train hard;

to reach the top.



SMACK!

I get knocked down,

but then I get right back up.



To continue on.

To be a champion.

I am an athlete.


If Only

By Linh Lam

If only that person were on the same planet.

If only that person were in the same hemisphere.

If only that person were in the same continent.

If only that person were in the same nation.

The Race

By Natalie Gartland

The start of the race isn’t always easy

They say to just put one foot in front of the other

Then repeat

How can you repeat that when you’re racing to find yourself?
