POEM 1: INTRODUCTION TO JMP.

I ask them to resolve

And discuss till its right

Even if it takes all night

To create a better life

And to shine a little light

On these issues

So they can learn

So let’s organize something new

Something that no one else can do

Let’s make fun

And let’s make it for everyone

Let’s bring an inspiring guest

To enlighten us with his quest

So we can make these students the best

Better than the rest

So let’s make a conference

And put the world in a trance

So they can be in awe of what we can do

To show them what we are capable of too

So let us leave our mark

Let us be a shining light in the dark

To come up with viable solutions, together, not you but WE

And let’s call it “JMP”

POEM 2: School Meeting

Sweat dripping down my face

My heart increasing its pace

I can't remember what I gonna say

It's been a scary day

This was my first year

My first time here

About to stand in front of the school

Worried about "looking cool"

I got up there and I felt everyone staring

It was an experience that was scary

My legs were numb

And I felt so dumb

I did what I was supposed to

And ran off and let out an audible "phew"

I was done with this nightmare

Or so I thought because soon I found myself back up there

But the more I did it the more I felt at ease

Because now I never freeze

I've done it so many times

That when others do it they use me as a disguise

Well now my time at kings is almost done

And it was so much fun

To be a regular on the show

of which I am the cohost, as you know

Is one that still gets my heart beating

You best know it as school meeting

Poem 3: THE MAN SAID NO

Ready to go

But the man said no

So I decide

to rhyme

anytime

Cuz I'm screaming

Scheming

Believing

In what comes next

But now I’m vexed

And the only thing I can do is send this text

to the people I love

and pray to god above

that I'll have a chance

for my life to advance

One way or another

I'll find you, brother

And tell you

That I'm not a failure

That were not major

Threats to your world

We just come from the third world

Looking for a dream world

Hoping to achieve world

Peace at a time

Lacking divine

Intervention

So I might just sit life down and have an intervention

And ask it just what is going on
