When All BY LORENZO

Else Fails
C. AGUILAR
 Problems revolve around the world
They walk on the surface of the earth
Showing how the world is old and cold
Where happiness gets out of birth
 That is when hope decided to kick in
To be used as a tool to fight the night
Since then, hope has been destined to win
The battle made by problem and fright
 We will wake up the next day
We will fix ourselves and cope
We will look to the sky and say
I will always thank God for giving us hope
What do you usually do when you have a
problem?
Have you ever felt like giving up?
How should we react in difficult times?
Look at the underlined words in the poem.
How do you call these words that express
actions or conditions?

 My
Weekend
Mistake
Dear Diary,
I am thinking of what happened yesterday at the park. You see,
I was riding my bike when Jaime saw me. He asked me to play
baseball with him and I agreed. We were having so much fun
that I accidentally threw the ball up high. The ball broke the
windows of a house. Out of fear and shame, we ran as fast as
we could and never said sorry to the owner of the house. I feel
so guilty and awful. 1 don't want to feel this way anymore.
Tomorrow, I will be going to that house to apologize for what I
have done. Well, honesty is still the best policy, right?
Your friend,
Ian
