			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In creative writing class, we watched an inspiring video about the Haitian people. After we finished the video Callie proceeded to tell me to write a poem about everything. Of course, after watching something of that magnitude it was easy. So, here&#8217;s what I came up with. Enjoy!</p>
<p>
<p><p>
The Haitian people already struggling for a good life, they didn’t need strife and then Mother Nature it seemed out of spite planned to smite this poor island nation who’s freed of plantations,<br />
The quake planned to break everything in its powerful wake leaving destruction and the crumblings of what used to be, Haitians began to cry for the world to see, they couldn’t even hold their economy,<br />
The death toll was staggering, women, children, and men their was no exception, I doubt they had any conceptions that a tragedy such as this would squish many hopes and dreams so quick-ily,<br />
The mass confusion, leading to stores having no more,<br />
The hospitals packed to the brim trying to save many without any supplies or equipment leaving many to suffer through the pain while they remained,<br />
The weak government shocked and helpless to do anything but watch as their country cries out in pain but all they can do is hide their face in shame</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Listen to the people yelling dinner is ready. Scurry over to the glowing, leafy haven of the quincho. Pick out a good seat next to a friend and some colorful grub. Chat away about the going-on’s of the day. Look out, as Lorena places more scrumptious food on the table. Inhale all the aromas wafting around you. Smell the roasting pork and beef on the crackling fire. Hear the ooh’s and aah’s of the marvelous feast. Hold up the ginormous sphere of bread that is bigger than your face. Munch on the tomato-y mixture of the pico de gallo. Glance around at your big, crazy, smiling family. Comment on something you find absolutely absurd. Let yourself laugh joyfully with everyone else who got the most recent joke. Join the chorus of “thank-you’s” to Dave and Lorena. Watch the embers of the once-large fire sparkle in the coming darkness. Grab your dirty dish to clean off in the sink. Wait in line behind the other five people who decided to do the same. Help out with the rest of the dirty dishes. Walk back to the cabins; chill out and watch the newest downloaded movie. Sigh happily; another amazing day at the best school around.</p>
