Transitions Hallways like a crowded sea student swimming from class to class- full of energy like the waving seaweed Watch out! Here comes the sharks- back stroke to your class
Puberty Because the dark corners are teeming streaming with them. And no matter where you turn how much light you shine how much air you pour on them. There are there. Teenagers engrossed in PDA.
Change is what I've been waiting for Without thinking what my change will be Change for me means a completed degree But I'll also become the mother of two. My baby won't be my only baby, What will my change mean for her? There are always changes to look forward to, But I have to remember what change means.

Degree is what I hope for Reading Specialist it is Where I go from here Is still undetermined
Transitions appear often in my life From homes To schools To grade levels To classrooms
My hopes are that one day, Transitions stop, And everything falls into place

Oh heat oh heater You make that house so hot that you make me feel like I want to go to antarctica. Oh heater oh heater u are trouble when I get hot and have to turn you up You make me get in trouble.
Antarctica By: Anali Guzman
I often wonder I would survive in Antarctica. Will an animal eat me? Will I freeze from the cold? Will the ice break off and make me disappear?
These thoughts only come on hot hot days On summer afternoons or after the children are taken out to play.
Well I lie.... They also happen on hot winter nights when the heater is much too high.
Perhaps I am in denial and just want to go away. Antarctica sounds nice and far away....
You see, The word hot can mean many things. Which hot do you mean?
Hot like the beaming sun on summer days? Hot like a tortilla fresh off the stove? Hot like the cookies that were just baked in the oven?
OR
Hot like the violence in the streets? Hot like the new Kanye song on the radio? Hot like the new gumshoes that I saw at the Nike store?
OR
Hot like the warm feeling after the kisses from my niece/nephew gives me? Hot like the abuelita hot chocolate my mom makes me? Hot like the body heat from a big family or fiends hug?
You see, a lot of things can be hot. What kind of hot did you mean?

Lately I've had a rough time transitioning Longing for the simpler days of youth No mortgages, no credit card bills Long summers were our truth
Now life's not so simple, Now late nights aren't a thing, No cutting class, no joy rides, No Backstreet for me to sing
Although I struggle now with this life I lead Adulting sure is rough It's nice to know this money's mine, and my stuff is my stuff
Backstreet Boys, NSynce, 98 Degrees The music and songs from my youth when life was a breeze I wonder whatever happen to those guys?
Maybe they realized the reality. We can't all be superstars; we can't all be JT. Some of us work for years and never feel the spotlight.
But just because no one's giving you applause Doesn't mean you shouldn't keep working To further your intended cause After all, there's no harmony without back up

crawling, growing, expanding
slowly transitioning into an adult
