Dear Hitler,


Look at all these children trapped behind me

Ashes are what they will come to be

They were once beautiful and free

now they are dirty and full of grief


They are scared and sad

How can you not feel bad?

You are a cowart and a killer

There is no need for such torture


I am appalled by the things these kids will endure

They are now terrified and insecure

You took them from their homes

and killed thousands and more to come


I no longer want to be a witness

It gives me a great deal of guilt and pity

I just want it to be over

and these kids returned to their families

Dear Soldiers






Why is that I can no longer see? How could this happen to me?

I once could see the whole world so pretty and but now it's so bare
To be so mean to someone I wouldn't dare

My whole life has changed with sadness and dispair
and it's like you don't even care







I can no longer see what I used to could

to see again anything I would

It hurt so bad and burned
How this could happen I will never learn

For me they had no concern






I feel so different now that I cannot see

If it never happend oh how different life would be
Just explain why to me

It doesn't make any sense to me


Just how it came to be

It's still hard for me to believe

that this was done to me






Blind eyes

My view on way

I think war is necessary in some ways and some ways not. It helps solve some problem within the goverment. I don't like the fact that so many people lose their lives and so many families lose their kids, parents, ect. I don't really agree with the war that's going on right now because I don't think we are really accomplishing anything. I have several friends in Iraq and Afganistan right now and I worry everyday whether or not I will ever see them again. It's amazing to think about how many people feel the way I feel about their families and friends being away.

How The columbian Trade forever changed the World

I think that the columbian trade and colonization changed the lives of people in a more positive than negative way. Even though disease spread and alot of lives were lost It brought better things in the long run. Everything down to the food we eat and what animal or plant we get it from to modern vaccines. We have discovered alot of new technology from this occurance of trading between the Old and New world. We have advanced the way we live in every aspect of live: medical, food preperation, vaccinations, and manufacturing. We have become more industrilized from the things we have learned from the columbian trade. We have bettered ourselves in the process.
