//By William Shakespeare//  When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up remembrance of things past, I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought, And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste: Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow, For precious friends hid in death's dateless night, And weep afresh love's long since cancell'd woe, And moan the expense of many a vanish'd sight: Then can I grieve at grievances foregone, And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan, Which I new pay as if not paid before. But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end.  When I sit and think I remember my past I remember what I did not have Wasting time on past troubles I cried for the first time in a while For my precious friends who are dead I cry a fresh wave of tears I greave for friends who have gone from this life I can greave over past grievances Over and over The tragic tale of echoed wails Which I continue to grieve as if i have never grieved before But if I think of you, my dear friend all of the sadness will be gone

In this poem, a person is thinking of his past in a depressing mood. This can be seen in the first three lines of the poem. When Shakespeare writes: "I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought" one can see the depressing tone in which the poem is set. The reader can see that the person is thinking of his past when Shakespeare writes: "I summon up remembrance of things past." The reader can also see that the person has regrets while thinking of his past. As he cries for the first time in many years the reader can see and feel the sadness and regret coming from the person. Repetition is used to further portray the sad mood of the poem as the person continually thinks of all that goes wrong in his or her life. By crying twice in one sitting one can see how depressed the person is. Hope is also used as a theme as near the end Shakespeare writes: But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end. The person shows hope when he believed that all will be better if he thinks of his dear friend. media type="custom" key="3927645" //By: The Fray//

I found God on the corner of 1st and Amistad Where the West was all but won All alone, smoking his last cigarette I said, "Where you been?" He said, "Ask anything"

Where were you when everything was falling apart? All my days were spent by the telephone that never rang And all I needed was a call that never came To the corner of 1st and Amistad

Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you? Just a little late, you found me, you found me

But in the end everyone ends up alone Losing her, the only one who's ever known Who I am, who I'm not and who I wanna be No way to know how long she will be next to me

Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you? Just a little late, you found me, you found me!

The early morning, the city breaks And I've been calling for years and years and years and years And you never left me no messages You never sent me no letters You got some kind of nerve taking all I want!

Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me Lying on the floor, where were you? Where were you?

Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you? Just a little late, you found me, you found me!

Why'd you have to wait to find me, to find me?

  “You Found Me” is one of the Fray’s best known songs. Many people like this song because of the meaning behind the lyrics. The song tells the many troubles that have fallen upon the band as it struggles to survive. The band members want to blame God because they did not feel his presence in their time of need. This is best demonstrated when the song states, “I found God on the corner of 1st and Amistad.” This feeling is also present in the line, “Where were you when everything was falling apart?” The band wants to know why God was not with them when their troubles had fallen upon them. The song lyrics cry out, “Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?” Throughout the song, the band does indeed give evidence that God found them, however, the members seem to feel that they were found too late. Hence the couplet, “Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me Lying on the floor, where were you? Where were you?”

One fish. Two fish. Red fish. Blue fish. Black fish. Blue fish. Old fish. New fish. This one has a little star. This one has a little car. Say! What a lot of fish there are. Yes. Some are red. And some are blue. Some are old. And some are new. Some are sad. And Some are glad. And some are very, very bad. Why are they sad and glad and bad? I do not know. Go ask your dad. Some are thin. And some are fat. The fat one has a yellow hat. From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere.



This poem is directly interpreting the diversity we have in our world. For instance in the stanza "Red fish Blue fish Black fish Blue fish" is showing the diversity of fish that there are. This can also be directly related to humans as well. Seuss also goes on to show the different emotions and attributes that people can have. This is evident in the stanza "Some are sad And some are glad And some are very, very bad." Seuss also incorporates a stanza on how fish not only look different because of their skin but also by their body such as being skinny or fat. this is displayed in the stanza "Some are thin And some are fat. The fat one has a little hat."

//Original Poem By: Jason Graybill, Evan Paules, and Solon Mao//

As the sky begins to darken And clouds begin to swell In the air you fell the tension And know that all's not well

The drops begin so lightly But pick up steam with time Soon the rain downpours profusely The ferocity starts to climb

The squall makes seeing strenuous Soaking animals and trees The rain's a sopping blackness As the temperature drops degrees

The lightning shines and flashes And lights up like the sun The thunder booms and clashes Like the banging of a drum

Eventually the storm subsides And the sun begins to shine The raging torrent it hides And reveals the bright skyline
