"Believe" Poems

This year every Middle School student had a chance to contribute to #BlogElul. Over the course of the Hebrew month of Elul some of their contributions will be published here with their permission. Today's Blog Elul theme is: Believe. The following poems written by Davis Academy 8th graders will reaffirm your faith in the creativity and thoughtfulness of the human spirit. 

"Believe"

by Katy S.

Laugh

Live

Love

Feel

Sometimes Hard

Sometimes Easy

Sometimes Alone

Sometimes part of a group

People will raise you up,

People will bring you down

It doesn't matter

Keep going

It will be worth it in the end

If you try

If you believe.

"Believe"

by Michaela Z.

Believe in the world

That one day we will live in Peace

Believe in your community

That everyone will respect your opinion

Believe in your friends 

That you can trust them with anything

Believe in your family

That you know they will always be there

Believe in yourself

That you will stay you

"Believe"

by Alex E.

Believe that you can do greatness in the world.

Believe that there are no limits to what you can do to help.

Believe in what you can do to help others around you and make a difference in the community.

Always believe that you can do more.
