(when typing the lines often where to long, so i put parentheses around the lines that went over one line on this but are one line.)

twins

(we have shared everything)
since before birth.
never just one,
forever known as two.

we will never know the joy
(of having our own birthday,)
for it will always be shared

(years later they will realize,)
we they once compared
(are different as summer and winter. theyll see)
(different people standing before them)
not the same person
they all expect us to be.


skittles

“i love you” i said
(“happy birthday and merry christmas”)
“i will miss you”

he mumbled a reply
(he tried his best, that i know for sure)
(“i love you” is what i'm sure he said)

(through the tears, i smiled back)
(not wanting him to see my pain)
(it was nothing compared to his)

(i put my hand on his, still holding back the tears)
(he was fighting hard, but it wasn't enough)
(i said goodbye once more and left the room)

(i went upstairs where everyone was sitting silent)
all doing as i was,
holding back the tears

(then after what felt like hours we had to go)
(the weight was to much, i was just a kid)
(i went downstairs and said my last goodbye)

(i went out the door with a heavy heart knowing it could be the last thing i say)
(“skittles” i said pointing to a parked car)
(he looks, smiles, and mumbles what i know to be “skittles”)

(i walk past the yellow car and think back to happier times)
(i climb into my dads truck, leaving my mom with her dad)
still silent, we pulled away

(i had fun with my cousins trying to forget about everything,)
but i can't
(i know it happened as soon as my dad answered the call.)

(still fighting back the tears, i smile and continue our game)
we left soon after
i knew what was coming

(we walked back into that door)
(into that room with an empty bed)
(my moms greets us and tells us what happened)

(it breaks my heart but still i smile through the pain)
(it's okay i thought, he's no longer suffering)
i kept telling myself that

(the rest of break was a blur)
i only cried at night
(i could not break my moms heart even more)


always

soon the door will close
on promises.
forever and always
will no longer prevail,
just give it time.

(relations once cherished and loved)
(will not last on a promise of always.)
(they will get ripped apart and go their separate ways.)

you will never be ready.
(the always you once believed,)
(will prove to come to an end. )

(the importance lies not in the promise, )
but in the memories.
hold on to them -
before it takes again.

thank you :)
i hope you like them

Read this excerpt from the Gettysburg Address by Abraham Lincoln and answer the question. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. … But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. What is the effect of some of the literary devices in the Gettysburg Address excerpt? It establishes sense of place. It uses deductive reasoning about all soldiers. It foreshadows "I Have a Dream" speech. It evokes feeling of honoring the dead.

I Hid My Love

by John Clare (adapted excerpt)



I hid my love when young till I

Couldn't bear the buzzing of a fly;

I hid my love to my despite

Till I could not bear to look at light:

I dare not gaze upon her face

But left her memory in each place;

Where'er I saw a wild flower lie

I hugged and bade my love good-bye.



I met her in the greenest dells,

Where dewdrops pearl the wood bluebells;

The lost breeze kissed her bright blue eye,

The bee kissed and went singing by,

A sunbeam found a passage there,

A gold chain round her neck so fair;

As secret as the wild bee's song

She lay there all the summer long.



I hid my love in field and town

Till e'en the breeze would knock me down;

The bees seemed singing ballads o'er,

The fly's bass turned a lion's roar;

And even silence found a tongue,

To haunt me all the summer long;

The riddle nature could not prove

Was nothing else but secret love.

Select the sentence in this passage that can be classified as a false statement. Polar bears are threatened by the profound changes in their habitat. Rising temperatures have led to a dramatic loss of the sea ice that forms above the frigid northern waters. The bears obtain food by hunting the seals that live just below the surface of the ice. Without the ice, polar bears are unable to hunt for their main source of nourishment. The melting ice will lead to the extinction of the polar bear as a species.

How does the following portion of Susan B. Anthony's speech support her
argument?
The preamble of the Federal Constitution says:
We, the people of the United States, in order to form a
more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic
tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the
general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to
ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this
Constitution for the United States of America.
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor
we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who
formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the
blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of
ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole
people - women as well as men. And it is a downright
mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the
blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the
only means of securing them provided by this democratic-
republican government - the ballot.

"But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: in the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force."
