- Poem by Zach Dionise, Grade 7
Restore.Restore what seemed to be lost for evermore.Throw back lies, and return strong ties,Growing slowly as long lost summer's heat.With moving words and gentle words, may this life be revived? Yet with each small step, of trust and truth, Troubles won and lost each way, Each show equally victories and failures, Only with this will the life be restored.
However, is it strong, is it of merit worth?Will this broken shell's restore survive for evermore?Time will tell, and time will kill,Nevertheless, time will help all to grow.Grow to the sky, up and up,Or down to Satan's halls.Only time will tell,If the endless, timeless, compassionate instant will prove fatal after all!
