A Poem A DayPower is the new gold
it is the diamonds on our wrists and necks
the extravagant life
the star every person is fighting for
Power is the taste of victory on the tip of your tongue
it is what creates you,
the everlasting reign of the universe
Power is the burning sensation in your heart
it is what you have been looking for all your life and life to come
an indestructible flame
By Odera, 6th grade
