4th Grade
Before my bedtime
There is a bright light
So that is seems
Like I’m in heaven
Lowering my head
I see the light
Closing my eyes
I dream I’m where I belong
Before my bed
I see me ceiling that is dark
my TV that is off
and my closet that has a log of dresses
Thinking what I am going to do tomorrow
lifting my hand and making shapes
Thinking when I am going to die
and thinking when I am going to move
Before my bed
There’s a bright shadow of the window
So that seems
Like a bad guy on the wall
Putting my head down
I dream of bad stuff
Putting my head up I see a bunch of cars.
4th & 5th Grade
Lying in bed looking at the stars
thinking a heart breaking apart
hearts on the ground
being in bed staring at the window
looking at the moon
staring at the stars
When I go to bed
I see the mess in my room
I also see my colorful
stuffed animals
I think of my room
being clean and nice
I also think of me being
inside a stuffed animal’s body
before I fall asleep I see
the stars through the window
reflecting a bit of light shining
like the sunrise
rising my head I see the
sun
lowering my head I see
the stars
4th Grade
Before my bedtime
There is a bright shine
Like a frost on the ground
Before bedtime
I see my slime
so that it seems
like the morning gleam
When I go to bed
I see the moon
When I lay
down I see
the stars
and all the
house and all the
lights off
