It’s Funny
It is funny how
We can be so similar
And not realize it.
Freedom
Freedom is what we
Yearn, Search, and Fight for, but we
Can’t find it alone.
Not What You Wished For
This is not what you
Wished for, but it’s what you got;
Thus it’s meant for you.
Excitement
I sit atop the
Mountain, and the world is vast,
Holding all futures.
Conflict
Stop the fighting; Stop!
The world is pretty, and nature
Is calling for peace.
These Rules
These rules, these rules, These
Rules cannot break us; we will
Stand and live and win.
Life Goes On
Sometimes, the world stops.
We feel we don’t know a thing,
But, we keep going.
Temporary
Everything in this
World is not everlasting;
Your pain will end soon.
Yugen
The universe too deep for
Words; I love Yugen.
No Sense
These poems do not
Make any sense, but, who knew
I would like haikus?

Kenton Buck says
Who would have thought that
combinations of small words
could bring us such joy?
Charles Schnell says
Joy, found by our words
In this ever changing world
And our wondrous souls.

Charles at recess
concocting Haiku bonbons
while his chums cavort
Charles Schnell says
Mr. Sarkis plays
Drama games with his students;
Love fills all their souls.
