Two black Cadillacs driving in a slow parade

Headlights shining bright in the middle of the day

One is for his wife,

The other for the woman who loved him at night

Two black Cadillacs meeting for the first time

[Chorus:]

And the preacher said he was a good man

And his brother said he was a good friend

But the women in the two black veils didn’t bother to cry

Bye, Bye Bye, Bye

Yeah they took turns laying a rose down

Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground

He’s not the only one who had a secret to hide

Bye bye, bye bye, bye Bye

Two black Cadillacs, two black Cadillacs

Two months ago his wife called the number on his phone

Turns out he'd been lying to both of them for oh so long

They decided then he’d never get away with doing this to them

Two black Cadillacs waiting for the right time, right time

[Chorus:]

And the preacher said he was a good man

And his brother said he was a good friend

But the women in the two black veils didn’t bother to cry

Bye bye, Bye bye

Yeah they took turns laying a rose down

Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground

He’s not the only one who had a secret to hide

Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye

Yeah yeah

[Bridge:]

It was the first and the last time they saw each other face to face

They shared a crimson smile and just walked away

And left the secret at the grave

[Chorus:]

And the preacher said he was a good man

And his brother said he was a good friend

But the women in the two black veils they didn’t bother to cry

Bye bye, Bye bye

Yeah they took turns laying a rose down

Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground

He’s not the only one who had a secret to hide

Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Spring in New Hampshire

by Claude McKay

Too green the springing April grass,

Too blue the silver-speckled sky,

For me to linger here, alas,

While happy winds go laughing by,

Wasting the golden hours indoors,

Washing windows and scrubbing floors.

Too wonderful the April night,

Too faintly sweet the first May flowers,

The stars too gloriously bright,

For me to spend the evening hours,

When fields are fresh and streams are leaping,

Wearied, exhausted, dully sleeping.

Happy Is

By: wordsnnoise

Happy is a place,where all my ducks are in a line,

Happy is a state that always makes me warm inside

Happy is a smile that rushes,as I close my eyes,

Happy is a memory,held after long goodbyes.

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine

I got a love and I know that it's all mine, oh, oh oh oh

Do what you want but you're never gonna break me

Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me, oh, oh oh oh

Take me away, a secret place

A sweet escape, take me away

Take me away to better days

Take me away, a hiding place

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine

I got a love and I know that it's all mine, oh, oh oh oh

Do what you want but you're never gonna break me

Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me, oh, oh oh oh

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine

I got a love and I know that it's all mine, oh, oh oh oh

Wish that you could but you ain't gonna own me

Do anything you can to control me, oh, oh no

Take me away, a secret place

A sweet escape, take me away

Take me away to better days

Take me away, a hiding place

There's a place that I go that nobody knows

Where the rivers flow and I call it home

And there's no more lies in the darkness there's light

And nobody cries, there's only butterflies

Take me away, a secret place

A sweet escape, take me away

Take me away to better days

Take me away, a hiding place

Take me away, a secret place

A sweet escape, take me away

Take me away to better days

Take me away, a hiding place

Take me away

(I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine)

A secret place

(I got a love and I know that it's all mine)

To better days take me away

Take me away

(I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine)

A secret place

(I got a love and I know that it's all mine)

Take me away, a hiding place

The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride

I smile up to the sky, I know I'll be alright

The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride

I smile up to the sky, I know I'll be alright

I like it because it says that shes happy

and she is not down in the clouds.And that

nothing is ever going to bring her down.

Whenever Dad came home from work, Mom always said,

''Put your shoes on the rack.''

And he never did.

So I would

before she

could tell him again.

Mom needs everything around her

just right.

Even a row of shoes.

So,

Dad's shoes were right there

on the shelf

the day

he took them

and left.

Right where mom told him

to put them.

Right there for him

to find them

and walk away

from her row

of shoes.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

How I wonder what you are

Up above the world so high

Like a diamond in the sky

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

How I wonder what you are

How I wonder what you are

Julie Comer 14

I'm in choir

I like to hang out with my friends/family

I'm in band

Why I choose:

I choose this poem

because it's saying

why spend your

time inside when

you could go outside

and play in the

nice weather

This is one of the songs

Iike to listen to.

Why I choose:

I choose this because it

connects to my family.

We've lost

Great Grandfather

before I was born,

Grandpa

When I was five,

and dad left

When I was six.

We can't

lose Grandma Margie

next.
