The End of School

The end of school is almost near. But, don’t you fear-summer is here.

It’s time to play and be on your way. The school year has been fun, and it’s time to relax under the sun. The months June, July, and August are long, and most of the staff will be gone. Summer school is on its way, and the days will get longer for some. So pull out the tents, cots and BBQ’s.  This is the season for all of you. Go fishing, biking or go in a canoe. Every body goes by a different tune. So when you come back to school your classes will be like new, good by Bill Sawyers

           Summer School

Summer school is here again. Let’s start the day with a grin. You are here to learn most of the day. This much I could say.

 So when you’re out and about at play. Please keep the balls of the roof. Although at times we might goof! As I have proof, when you see me on the roof.

Play it safe and follow the rules, and you shouldn’t get any scrapes.

The teachers are here to teach you what you wanted to know, math, reading, science and such. Let’s not be in to big of a rush.

Welcome back to this wonderful school of ours.

Holbrook is cool, but, the learning is all up to you!

   The Beginning of School

It’s the beginning of school once again so soon.

Playing all summer in the water and camping under the moon.

The class rooms are fresh, the floors look new. Even the windows can be seen with a gleam.

The custodians worked so very hard under the summer heat, trying to get thing all nice and neat. What a feat!

The teachers were busy getting ready for you, figuring out what lessons and home work to do.

The secretary's type letters all day and printing the news that we read.

The principal in charge of it all is out to give us another great year, so give her a cheer.

The PFC is kind of neat, there out to get money for your school, and set up events to help you learn safety or just to have fun while learning some stuff.

Walk in the halls and stay of the bars.

Follow the rules or you’ll loose! By trouble if you’re caught, and bruise if not.

Holbrook is the best, do your homework and you’ll make the next grade, hurray!

THE DREAM

I was born to dream and have them come true .

They appear to me right out of the blue.

I wished for a car and then a house and thats what I got.

Then I dreamed of getting a wife and then the kid's. I got my wife and two kid's,

I haven't yet to become rich. But, I'm not stuck in an old ditch.

Next, I dreamed of becoming an inventor.

What a wish as I'm getting bigger.

This wish has become true and getting bolder. Any one can do it. as you get older

Next I wished to become a writer, as I'm getting brighter. It takes a lot of time

Give it a thought and some time; let it ferment like a good wine.

At first it will smolder, and then you'll make it.

So start off small. Then go as big as you want!
Don't feel blue it's all up to you.

GOOD LUCK from the CALIFORNIA dreamer.

BUGS

Bugs are kind.

Some bugs are cool... bees pollinate flowers to grow our fruits, they help our gardens bloom.

Some will kiss us and others will bite.

You see some in the day and others at night.

To see them in the day

Can be such a delight.

To see them in the dark

Can be a big fright.

Some are small and some are big.

Some climb trees and others dig.

So when you see a bug.

Don't you squash it.

Don't you DARE!!!

Oops, I didn't mean too. A bugs life, just isn't fair.

The Fishing Poem

Fishing in the moonlight or fishing in the sun;

Fishing for the big ones is fun, fun, fun.

Catching the small ones or none at all,

It’s a great sport to get on the ball.

Good luck on your next trip,

And let’s hope you don’t get sick.

The Rocket

Sitting on the launch pad lay a beautiful, but impressive rocket;

As the ignition cord gets plugged into the socket,

The excitement is extreme; 5-4-3-2-1---Lift Off!

Listen to the engine scream!

See the blazing flames and endless smoke roar into the endless sky,

The massive bird soars dramatically through the clouds

Towards the peaceful heavens above

To explore the sensational moods from our eyes.

Then, all at once, the ejection deployment of the chute “pops” the rocket aloft,

Comes floating down gracefully, unlike a rock – what a thrill!

No Boundaries

There are no boundaries of life in this age;

Just open your mind of empty space.

Learn the knowledge of wisdom through school and books;

As you just can’t depend on your looks.

Use your best judgment to follow through.

The future is upon us,

It’s all up to you.

If you reach a dead end,

Then start over again.

A day is a day; a year is a year;

Time is one thing you shouldn’t fear.

You will succeed one of these days

What ever the goal you’re trying to reach.

I’ll wish you luck, as this is the way;

Just try to make the best of your day.

Dare To Say No! As I should know tobacco was taking its course and very slow. From my mother who lost a kidney to cancer and to my wife who came down with asthma a few months ago. It’s a crying shame at a very young age, as I was 11 to be exact. For 23 years I was trapped. Then my wife made a wish. She asked me to quit for a Christmas gift. Out of all of the ideas of a gift this was the hardest wish to give. I can happily say
her wish became true . Not only for her, But for my kids too.
