Why...

I don't understand...

I don't understand...

why there is terrorism
why the sky is blue
why the highest number is infinity
why there is Valentine's Day

But most of all...

why there is war
why you must be over 35 to be president
why some people don't believe in aliens
why the Twin Towers had to fall

I do understand...

why plants help us
why people look the way they do
why we go to school
why there is music

Coraima- I LOVE this poem. It could be straight out of the poetry books I use in class. It is so creative. I don't understand why their is Valentine's Day either :) Thank you for your amazing blog work. You have the most posts of any student in 801 or 802! Excellent grammar and spelling. As a challenge, I would love to see you write your own short stories or news articles on your blog as well. We can talk about this more in class!
