A night in China

Crowds swarm everywhere, you can barely take a breath when another one comes
Then you see the lights, like little snowflakes staying in one place
They are so colorful: red, blue, yellow, green... They are so pretty
you can almost imagine, the little snowflakes falling on top of your head
You go on to the wall, where you can see the whole city of Xi'an
There you can see lamps everywhere, then you see the people, crowds swarming in the road
The people give way to the traffic, traffic is like little ants swarming around their colony.

the best line in your poem Julia
was "then you see the lights, like little snowflakes staying in one place"
I liked the whole poem, but that was my favorite line.

Cecilia pinched someone really aggressively at school yesterday because it was St. Patrick's day. Then she was in a snit all day because Mrs. McKenzie got after her.

What else? We sent poems to the Sheldon Art Gallery to express our poetic opinions of their paintings. We don't know if they will be displayed, but it was fun doing it.

We have a new boy Ali and after spring break we will have a new girl Maxine.

more later, time to get ready for school
