Jacob Gifford (1995 / plano Illinois)
what is school like?
School is like a prison
We can’t leave,
School is like an island
We are all trapped,
School is like a pie
It is good at first until you reach the crust,
School is like a toilet
It is full of germs,
School is like a salad
You have to put something on it to make it better,
School is like a stupid cat
It never dies,
School is like a garbage truck
It smells, it’s big and you can here it from a mile away,
School is like a baby
It always needs your attention,
School is like a shark
It just keeps chasing,
School is like going to jail
You never want to go back,

A Dream Within A Dream
Edgar Allan Poe
ur poem is realy realy good it express all what i feel 4 skool, and wt most of us feel , gd written
Your lines are short and written in simple English that isn't monotonous to read...as to your opinion, it's relative: school was like that for me as a junior but in my senior years it was simply awesome...but anyone that's ever has a bad day at school can relate to what you wrote
you've stated clearly your school feeling nicely, but I disagree school on my perspective, protects, feeds you information that you are not forced to eat, basically school is what you make of it,
add this:
school is like hell,
your never safe 'till the bell.
good similies, satisfactory description... i jjust don't agree with all these... school is what you want it to be....
i totally agree
I HATE school! ! ! !
Nice one
good poem and use of similes yes but i can't agree and every thing you said there! ! ! ! !
nice similie work. :)
and I totally agree dude. haha
I totally agree on that one! ! !
School is like HELL! ! ! !
I mean they could at least make school much more fun! ! ! !
Anyway like I said I TOTALLY agree on that one! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Awesome job! ! ! ! !
this poem is really good,
well done (:
