Writing From Roseau

Poems by Ethan Tesarek and Jazmine Dokken.

 

Most of the time

Ethan Tesarek

 

Most of the time the weather is nice

Most of the time I wake up on a Saturday and go outside with the fresh dew still on the ground

Most of the time I find wood ticks

Most of the time on a Monday and Thursdays after school I go shoot trap

All of the time I enjoy life.

 

Naming the Stars

Ethan Tesarek

 

Strange star

Majestic

Great

Brightest star .

 

Beauty

By Jazmine Dokken

 

Wake up

Shower

Get dressed

Go to school or work

Repeat

 

Wake up

Look nice

Impress

Go to school

Never work

Repeat

 

Wake up

Criticize yourself

Get scared

Go to school and work

Impress the world

Repeat

 

Three versions of a morning

All in search of this word

Beauty

Beauty is pain they say

But we shouldn’t have to feel pain to feel pretty

These systems

Repeat

 

Until someone says something to make them feel luxurious and happy

Then can they accommodate themselves to change the routine

 

Wake up

Smile

Get dressed

Feel desired

Go to school and work

Feel beautiful

REPEAT

Just from one person and one desire

Beauty.

 

Listen

By Jazmine Dokken

 

Listen to the world,

It’s always moving,

But never ending

 

Bluewater

By: jazmine dokken

 

A nice soft summer

Hot and somewhat hostile

Sometimes bored not able to move from your bed

However a week is coming

One wonderful week

Full of gospel and god

Bluewater!

A time to have a fantastic fun

Filled with adventures on the lake

Adventures in the sun

You can hear the laughter

You can smell the joy

Coming here for one week isnt enough though

You come for a camp high

Its a drug of fun you can not get enough of

But you go home

High happy and longing to go home

Bluewater.
