Favorite Quote:
“Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.”
-Tennyson


America, Oh America
Iowa, Oh Iowa
North Polk, Oh North Polk
This who we are/
This is how we are.
But, we live
We love
We are
Americans,
Iowans,
North Polkians.
We have plans,
Now
Future
Death.
We have Religions.
We are here.
We have values.
We live as a family,
United by a common goal,
to succeed.
We may fight,
We may have groups
We may have cliques
But, we help each other
Whenever we can
Wherever we can.
We are you.
You Breathe,
Like us
You Sing.
Like us
You may be
Across the world
But we are you.
You.
You are us.
We are kids,
Teens,
People,
Citizens of the Earth.
United by a common goal.
To succeed,
To Live,
To Breathe,
To go to college,
To Work,
To Retire,
To die.

We are a part of this world
You may be different to us.
But, we are all Humans
In a fight for humanity,
We must unite,
To live
To love
To succeed....

I wrote this poem to send to our pen pals in in Siberia. I thought it would be good to send in.
