narrative poem

•       I am here to talk to you about this rhyme
•       This talks about things that happen time to time
•       First I was a smart kid, flooding, with my shirt tucked in, pretty
much like a nerd
•       Now I am in the basketball team and pretty often heard
•       This girl I am going to talk about is the best of them all
•       For me it’s better than bouncing or kicking a ball
•       Her beautiful eyes and her beautiful hair
•       If you didn’t notice, I would always stare


•       There was a week we just hanged out
•       I’d will just poke you and you would shout
•       That one night I felt that I loved you
•       I remember texting and didn’t know what to say.. I had no clue
•       I texted saying you saying that I had felt something close to you
•       I send it, waiting impatiently, with nothing to do
•       You said “I don’t know, I will think about it
•       I was really nervous I couldn’t sit


•       All these people helped me I am not going to take the credit all by myself
•       I went to the library and grabbed a book on “how to treat girls
nice”, on the bottom shelf
•       Greg, Vanessa, Dorian, Noel, and Felix helped me
•       Vanessa came to my class during 4th period screaming she had said SI
(Spanish word for yes)

•       I thought that, that day was the best day of my life
•       Thinking that you would one day be my wife
•       I would impress you like bears trying to get honey from a bee hive
for his partner
•       Everybody was like “ wow Josh you go out with her”

•       I tried to do my best to keep this relationship alive
•       But whatever relationship lives, sooner or later has to die
•       She said it was over, and she didn’t like me no more
•       In that very moment all my dreams and goals just tore


•       Have you heard any guy tell you that only girls cry, well I was a
girl for a lot of days
•       For 2 weeks I didn’t have nothing to say
•       If nobody told you, I wrote a lot of poems about you, all by myself
•       Still have the poetry book I wrote, right on the top shelf
•       Couldn’t play basketball for as much as I wanted to
•       When I played all I would always think of you
•       I felt that something had stabbed me through my heart
•       First we were going out and with a blink of an eye, we are apart

•       Well that’s how I got an NP on Mrs. Mejia’s class
•       I can’t believe I said that, I just put myself on blast
•       Well  I really missed her and her smell of cinnamon
•       But guess what I wrote this poem so I can try to move on

Anne Frank- Stage Adaption





Anne Frank was one bravest girl I know in my life. She went through a lot and with a lot of that going on, she didn’t back down. This play takes place on November 1945, in Hamersterdam. This was the place that they were hiding. Anne’s family and the other family named the Van Daan’s were hiding because they were Jewish. In this time Hitler was in power and wanted to eliminate a lot of people because he said they were “useless compared to them or were not as superior as a German”. While they hide this women named Miep and Mr. Kraler go get them food, books, and whatever else they needed. They have to be there for a long time and then for living to long in their Peter (son of the Van Daan’s) ends up falling in love with Anne Frank (the daughter of the Franks). Well they fall in love and hear things or rumors that the war was going good, then they said the war was going bad, but after wards they heard it was going good again. Well when they heard these news they heard something happening downstairs and got scared thinking it was the Nazis because they had made a lot of noise. Well they find out that it was only just a thief. They were all good to hear about it was just a thief but Mr. Dussel (another person who joins them, He is a well known Jewish Dentist) said that what if they heard somebody in an upstairs room and the Nazis could come and find them. Well they didn’t pay much attention. When one day there came the Green police (Nazis) and took them to concentration camps. The only one to survive out of all those people was Mr. Frank and Miep/ Mr. Kraler (but they weren’t Jewish), and he is here in this play talking about the Diary of Anne Frank.
