Poems

  Books

I read books, because they take me places

Inside when I look, I see so many faces

Detective stories, there are so many cases

Oh how I love reading books

When I'm at home, I read two or three books

My mom says, she thinks that I'm totally hooked

You would be too, if you would only look

Oh how I love reading books

My dad says, Kevin why don't you slow down

There's plenty of books here, from the ceiling to the ground

You read them like candy, you gobble them by the pound

Oh how you love reading books

I find them fascinating, exciting, a tool

I learn about a lot of things that I don't learn in school

I'd rather read books than learn how to be cool

Oh how I love reading books

In these books I learn so many things

Look at the knowledge that these books can bring

I even read one book, and it taught me how to sing

Oh how I love reading books

So if someone says, that reading books is for girls

They don't understand that reading rocks my world

It lifts me, spends me, sends me in a twirl

Oh how I love reading books

If they don't see now, they will in due time

I'll let them read one of these great books of mine

And after they finish, they won't be so blind

Then they'll say, I love reading books

The Internet

The internet is, a fountain of information.

Its available to everyone, in every nation.

Pages for children to read and enjoy

along with the spam which can really annoy.

Poetry and forums for everyone's pleasure

just about anything, even selling your treasure.

Its even used everyday in our schools

it has lots of help and good learning tools.

Ethics are used by those who do care

and often free help with things we do share.

Friendships has spread all over the earth

I even made a friend who lives way down in Perth.

I enjoy it so much, I think I'm addicted

I think I was warned, as this was predicted.

Computer World

I’m trapped with a screen full of many colors and diversity

For many years now we are fighting a new battle verses technology

A trust which spans a continent

And we're falling in love on the internet.

Reading inspiring words with which I can relate

Sending a message by email it will never be late

And to find the right way, you took out a huge map.

Now gps signals direct you in a snap.

So set aside your laptop and modem,

Our problems definitely the computer or technology can’t solve them

In the air there is a consciousness of a doomsday predictions

I look at the future and I have to say goodbye to the imagination

I break away ascending to new heights

You have to admit new technology gives us all such a delight.

Richard Feynman

"A Book"

             A book, I think, is very like

 A little golden door

 That takes me into places

 Where I've never been before.

 It leads me into fairyland

 Or countries strange and far

 And, best of all, the golden door

 Always stands ajar.
