Love

Love is dark red
It smells like a rose
It tastes like cherries
It sounds like a flute
It feels like silk
It looks like a heart
Love is forever
--- Breana P.

Sadness

Sadness is a smoky blue
It smells like dusty library books
It tastes like stale popcorn
It sounds like an unanswered phone
It feels like teardrops dripping down my face
It looks like my dog's sad brown eyes when she can't come
Sadness is low fat, sugar free ice cream
--- Claire H.

University Of Texas

Fear is embodied by burnt orange
It smells like funk
It tastes like sweat
It sounds like thousands of screaming fans
It feels like pain
It looks like a raging bull
Fear is the University of Texas at Austin football team
--- Micah O.

Sad is gray

Sad is gray
It smells like rain
It sounds like a cracking window pane
It feels like a broken heart
It looks like a cloudy day
Sad is being far, far away

"I'm Jamacin, anyways here's one from Lucy age 10.

'Hi Larry I've tried to teach my little sister Isiz about Adam and Eve. Well here's a little story. When God created Adam, he loved the world! God gave Adam all the animals to name. Like the lion or the tiger. God thought He would take one of Adam's ribs and make a women named Eve. They both got married and ate from trees. God told them not to eat from one tree. That one tree had a snake on it that tricked Eve. Eve told Adam that the fruit was good so he ate it too. God was not happy so Adam and Eve hid from Him. God found then and kicked them out of the Garden of Eden.' "

"Well that's all."
