Bad Sale!
The man bought a car
It didnt take him very far
It stopped in a tunnel
And flew over a funnel
His car started and drove into tar!
Pigs!
There was a group of flying pigs
They ate old rotten figs
They fell down the sky groaning
Not waking to till the morning
Now knowing they are as thin as twigs

Almost Drowning
I was pushed into the pool
I did not know how to swim
They were panicking
Scared I might die
Trying m best to get air
But just made me tierd
Hoping I get up
I tried to tread water
But it was no use
Then I just stopped trying
Then I floated up
But not fast enough

Fainting in the water
I swallowed too much water
Seeing a light
With my grandma holding out her hand
Someone came diving in!
Bringing me to safetyHe had got the water out of my lungs
Thats why Im alive today (:

Tyler
He wont leave me alone!
The only way is to get him an ice cream cone.
He loves me so dear
But when hes mad he drops a tear
I help him stop crying
But he doesnt want me to keep trying
The way he talks is very mean
When he cant fit his jeans
Although he has a big temper
Hes a big camper
He loves to eat candy
But hes never handy
Although sometimes he hates me
Not as much as green tea
Although hes a liar
Thats one thing hell never tierHe loves to eat fish
Only on specific dish
Theres only one other
Only that can be made by my mother

He never whines.
Only when I eat his vines
He loves music, especially rock
But he doesnt sing, only talks
I love him the most
Even when we turn to ghost

Highwayman Poem
The wind was a torrent of darkness upon the gusty trees,
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
The road was a ribbon of moonlight looping the purple moor,
And the highwayman came riding--
Riding--riding--
The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn door.
He'd a French cocked hat on his forehead, and a bunch of lace
at his chin;
He'd a coat of the claret velvet, and breeches of fine doe-skin.
They fitted with never a wrinkle; his boots were up to his
thigh!
And he rode with a jeweled twinkle--
His rapier hilt a-twinkle--
His pistol butts a-twinkle, under the jeweled sky.

Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed in the dark inn-
yard,
He tapped with his whip on the shutters, but all was lockedand barred,
He whistled a tune to the window, and who should be waiting
there
But the landlord's black-eyed daughter--
Bess, the landlord's daughter--
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.
Dark in the dark old inn-yard a stable-wicket creaked
Where Tim, the ostler listened--his face was white and
peaked--
His eyes were hollows of madness, his hair like mouldy hay,
But he loved the landlord's daughter--
The landlord's black-eyed daughter;
Dumb as a dog he listened, and he heard the robber say:
"One kiss, my bonny sweetheart; I'm after a prize tonight,

But I shall be back with the yellow gold before the morning
light.
Yet if they press me sharply, and harry me through the day,Then look for me by moonlight,
Watch for me by moonlight,
I'll come to thee by moonlight, though hell should bar the
way."
He stood upright in the stirrups; he scarce could reach her
hand,
But she loosened her hair in the casement! His face burnt like
a brand
As the sweet black waves of perfume came tumbling o'er his
breast,
Then he kissed its waves in the moonlight
(O sweet black waves in the moonlight!),
And he tugged at his reins in the moonlight, and galloped awayto the west.
He did not come in the dawning; he did not come at noon.

And out of the tawny sunset, before the rise of the moon,
When the road was a gypsy's ribbon over the purple moor,
The redcoat troops came marching--
Marching--marching--
King George's men came marching, up to the old inn-door.
They said no word to the landlord; they drank his ale instead,But they gagged his daughter and bound her to the foot of
her narrow bed.
Two of them knelt at her casement, with muskets by their
side;
There was Death at every window,
And Hell at one dark window,
For Bess could see, through her casement, the road that he
would ride.
They had bound her up at attention, with many a sniggering
jest!

They had tied a rifle beside her, with the barrel beneath her
breast!
"Now keep good watch!" and they kissed her. She heard thedead man say,
"Look for me by moonlight,
Watch for me by moonlight,
I'll come to thee by moonlight, though Hell should bar the
way."
She twisted her hands behind her, but all the knots held good!
She writhed her hands till her fingers were wet with sweat or
blood!
They stretched and strained in the darkness, and the hours
crawled by like years,
Till, on the stroke of midnight,
Cold on the stroke of midnight,
The tip of one finger touched it! The trigger at least washers!

The tip of one finger touched it, she strove no more for the
rest;
Up, she stood up at attention, with the barrel beneath herbreast.
She would not risk their hearing, she would not strive again,
For the road lay bare in the moonlight,
Blank and bare in the moonlight,
And the blood in her veins, in the moonlight, throbbed to her
love's refrain.
Tlottlot, tlottlot! Had they heard it? The horse-hooves,
ringing clear;
Tlottlot, tlottlot, in the distance! Were they deaf that they
did not hear?
Down the ribbon of moonlight, over the brow of the hill,
The highwayman came riding--
Riding--riding--The redcoats looked to their priming! She stood up straight
and still.

Tlottlot, in the frosty silence! Tlottlot, in the echoing night!
Nearer he came and nearer! Her face was like a light!
Her eyes grew wide for a moment, she drew one last deepbreath,
Then her finger moved in the moonlight--
Her musket shattered the moonlight--
Shattered her breast in the moonlight and warned him--with
her death.
He turned, he spurred to the West; he did not know who
stood
Bowed, with her head o'er the casement, drenched in her own
red blood!
Not till the dawn did he hear it, and his face grew grey to
hear
How Bess, the landlord's daughter,
The landlord's black-eyed daughter,Had watched for her love in the moonlight, and died in the
darkness there.

Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky,
With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier
brandished high!Blood-red were his spurs in the golden noon, wine-red was his
velvet coat
When they shot him down in the highway,
Down like a dog in the highway,
And he lay in his blood in the highway, with the bunch of lace
at his throat.
And still on a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the
trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a gypsy's ribbon looping the purple moor,
The highwayman comes riding--
Riding--riding--
The highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.
Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard,

~SUMMMARY~
The poem is mainly about him being in love.There are many conflicts in this poem. The poem
has many sad events. The poem is very dramatic.
I enjoyed it.
At the beginning the highwayman came up to
the old inn. He came to see his love, Bess. Their
love was secret. No one knew at first. But then
Tom the Ostler overheard their conversation. He
heard that the highway man was in love with Bess.
Tim also loved Bess. Then one day theredcoats came to the old inn.Holding Bess as a
hostage. That night was when the highway man
was coming back. But Bess risked her lfe to save
her love. But the next morning the highway man
heard what happened. He charged towards the innbut he was shot down.
