City Of Landscape

Leaves flowing in the sky
People wondering if the skies are blue and the sun is shiny bright
Knowing that their pets are safe and that their children are playing in delight
Discovering a beautiful new place giving nature a great day and night
Having a fantastic trip with the family around a discovered new place
Maybe darkens wins our happiness
Though the beautiful happiness always comes back in the most charming way

city of towers! February 20, 2008

1) The towers of Chicago are big as the sky .
2) The twin towers in NEW YORK were twin as brothers.
3)The towers I see are nice.
4)The towers I saw convinced me to make one.
5)The tower I made in 02/13/08 looked like !@#$%^&*() to tell you the truth.
6)The only tower I haven’t seen is Eiffel tower.

CITY OF KNOWLEDGE February 20, 2008

KNOWLEDGE
KNOWLEDGE
KNOWLEDGE
This city is full of
Knowledge.
Because we have
Lots of museums with
Lots of bones
And signs
And aquariums with
Lots of fish
And signs
So that is why it’s a
CITY OF KNOWLEDGE!

I’m From October 17, 2007

By Miguel A.

I’m from a place I love very much
where the
food tastes great the streets are full of
leaves and soda cans and potato chip bags
I live in a place where I have only heard
one gunshot fired
I’m from where my school is next to
a laundromat
I’m from a place where one word
can’t describe it

I come from a place far from here October 17, 2007

By Alberto S., age 12

I come from a place far from here.
A place where you could hear a baby cry
A place where you could hear the bullets
getting loosed.
A place where you get hit and runs.
A place where you can’t relax.
But soon people will relax.
A place where parents get scared to let
their kids out to play.
I come from a place far from here where
things go bad but still good.

I’m from Chicago
Reminds me of
Jalisco from
The rain and
Dirt combined

From tacos
That smell
Like tripitas

And feeling
Safe around
My family
And friends

From every
Day bedding,
From under
A roof
