Derived

CME Scholarship
Surprised by joy- impatient as the wind
The letter in my hand,
Feasting my eyes on the unbelievable news!
Free money! A certificate with a check taped to the back,
heart pounding, my money, our money.
New pair of jeans that fit like a glove.

Baking

A chocolate covered strawberry,
or that special cake; when one decides to marry.
Creamy fluffy cheesecake and different creations,
different combinations for all types of occasions.

The warmth, and mouth watering cakes,
succulent pastries that spring your taste buds awake!
Irresitable arromas, delightful pieces of art,
licking the spoon is the best part!

Pastoral

Snow
Cotton balls fall gently from the sky.
The magical glisten you create as you gather,
like spilled glitter smooth,
and fragile to touch as you disappear in my fingertips.

Alliteration

Highschool
Frequent frustration flutters my concentration,
breaking down barriers and boarders that restrict me,
dominate, demand control and destroy the weakness in you.

Couplet

The soccer soul

He uses his body as a strong shield,
Green grass, crowd shouting, and the wide open field.

The adrenaline pumping through his veins,
breathless, sweat dripping, bruised knees and grass stains.

Although injured he'll always find a way,
He can't resist the urge, he has to play!

Like father like son; where it all began,
I believe in you, I'm your biggest fan!

Epic poem

Heroic man; my father

This man is as strong as a horse,
I look up to you; being my father, there is no remorse.
With endurance and resistance,
there is no second guessing when needing his assistance.
He is modest and cares about you,
he will always put you before himself, it's is something he must do,
to show that he loves you and prove to you it is true.
This man is a warrior, he will do his best to fulfill what you desire,
this man does so much how could he not be the one that I admire.
He is very generous, giving even when there's not enough for him to give,
but the strive of wanting to please his children is the purpose in continuing to live.
He is relentless, even without sleep, nothing slows him down,
his positive vibe of "estoy aqui por ti mija" is the most relaxing sound.
His work ethic and dedication is to set the foundation,
for the new generation to receive a better education,
thank you for giving me this opportunity, and don't forget that you too are my motivation. 

M&S

Converting

Freshmen year is like finally being able to take off the training wheels,
you might fall, scrape your knees, and decide whether or not to try again.
No one will be behind you helping you keep your balance.
Senior year is knowing how to be prepared for those falls,
knowing how to keep your self up,
knowing which route you'll take.
Senior year is understanding why and who you have become.
