The Hixson Student Show: Spring Break!

Our spring break is starting and so our students have put together a show perfect for break.

Haikus from our Creative writing Club

A Haiku is a Japanese poem that is 3 lines.  The first and third lines have 5 syllables and the second (middle) line has 7 syllables. Here are some that our students in the creative writing club, which meets Thursday's after school, have written and shared:

Clutz

I was embarrassed.

I fell off my chair again.

I am such a clutz.

(Mahalia)

 

Rollercoaster

This is way too fast.

I think I’m going to be sick.

Wait!  We didn’t start?

The Pitch

Standing on the hill

Overlooking the whole world

I step and release.

(Bennett)

 

Chicago

Buzzing cars and crowd

Suffocated in nothing

Lights flicker above

(Bennett)

 

The Night War

The cosmos gleaming

I watch the battle above

A flash, then nothing

(Bennett)
