The Rights

T People can have trade.
H People have the right to hear.
E People have the right to eat.

R Rights are for everyone
I People have the right to ignore.
G People are great
H People should hesitate with others.
T People should treat others the way that they want to be treated.
S People should be safe.

Environment

The environment is our friend.
So I will say something if I can.
We have the rights to do almost anything.
We can even have the right to be king.

This is why I have been sent,
To talk about the environment.
We have the right to be a garbage queen.
So, we should try to keep this world clean.

You can have fun and play
Every night and every day
But there is one thing we should remember garbage doesn't rot like wood in November.

Playing

People have the right to play.
Like to play.
Are always wanting to play.
Yes, it is true
I'm desperate for play
Need to play
Go ahead, play.

Fair Treatment

How can we make sure young
People feel like they are
Respected and treated fairly?

My answer,
To make sure they get food and not beat up by their parents.
And being safe.

Do you think kids are treated unfairly?

My answer,
Yes, they are because kids are abused
And used because of their skin colour.

Wars

Wars are when
you sometimes
see and hear
thunder
and lightening
and I'm scared
that you're going to get shot and
die.

Environment Poem

Environments should be clean.
No litter should be seen.
Viruses are in our air.
I think I am going to pull out my hair.
Return the cleanness to our earth
or else get off our turf.
Never use our planet for garbage, for it is not.
Mammals should be kept alive.
Earth was not meant to be used for a garbage can.
Not nice people litter.
I'm tired of not knowing my rights!
