A war is senseless. 
Nobody really wins. 
Some people give their lives 
willingly,
defending their homeland, 
others because they are in 
the wrong place at the 
wrong time. 
It seems we always have wars. 
When will we ever learn? 
When? 

I'm the mouse
In your house,
And you can't see me.
I eat cheese
When I please,
I'm free as can be.

I scuttle 
And I squeak,
If you see me, 
you'll scream 
EEEEEEK!

When thinking of summer
I think of the beach
I think of the waves
That are out of reach
I think of blue skies
Of hot balmy nights
Of peaches and nectarines
And other fruit delights.
Of lighter school wear
Of the longer day
The end of school year
And our annual holiday.
When thinking of summer
The season I like best
I could have it all year
In place of the rest.
