Update: 2 Garinger students struck by truck

By Kaila Lee

An update is available on the two students injured in the accident Monday morning in front of the school.

The accident involved a 15-year-old girl and a 16-year-old boy. The 15 year old female will hopefully be released today (Thursday) and the 16 year old boy is still being hospitalized with severe head injuries.

On Monday, the two Garinger students were hit by the trailer of a pickup truck on their way to school. The students were avoiding the crosswalk and crossed the street when the lights turned green. The street the two students crossed were at the intersection of Eastway and Sugar Creek, which is notorious for 65 crashes in the last 5 years, and what fatally killed a student about 3 years ago, Brittany Palmer.

 

On the news, the male victim’s mother said that her son thought the street was clear. The driver is not being charged against the accident of both the students.

Why and How I Write Poetry

I write poetry becasue it is a good way to express how I  feel on paper without having to say those words aloud. When I write I get lost in a world of imagination where I can be any and everything I
 want to be. Say whatever I want and nobody can judge me because it comes from my heard. Poetry is like a song without a voice. It is music without a beat.

How I write petry is to first have an emotion. With all poetry a certain emotion inspired the poet to write it. Once I haev my emotion I turn them into words and I basically explain how and feel and whatever happened to have caused me to have that certain  emotion. I try to use words that are similiar in context. All you have to do inorder to write poetry is find and emotiona and write how you feel.

Life

Life Sometimes it seems like everything is unfair,

nothing but gray skies everywhere and people pass you but no one seems to care.

Thats just life.

Sometimes everythng is going your way and no one or anything can ruin your day,

And at the top is where you will stay.

That’s just life.

We all feel joy, sorrow, despair when times get hard, yet hope for a brighter tomorrow.

We all feel fear and the need to fit in and feel like we belong.

We all laugh, we all cry. We all fall. We all fly.

We all fight for those we love. Family stands together when push comes to shove.

We all have the need to prove we’re worthy of the best in life.

Never give up and dont give in

Just keep going until the end of your life.
