Summer

While the sun glares down,
on a hot summer sidewalk.
When the people walk by,
tanning their golden skin.
About to aboard a summer journey.
Meanwhile, everyone stares at the glorious mid day sky.
Near the lake I stand,
upon my feet I walk,
beyond my eyes I see my reflection,
through the clear crystal water.

New School

Going back to school is hard, and being new is even harder. I come from Hill Country Middle School. Being new at a school isn’t new for me, I’ve had to do it almost every year. Although, because of football games last year, I do know a lot of people at West Ridge. Being a transfer student isn’t easy. I have to wake up earlier than everyone every morning, and in the afternoon I have to ride the bus for about an hour. Although, there are some struggles, it really is worth it. I love all the people here and always have a really fun time.
