Uur Eunsciences ay Le any Hniaernnin, B9 God guides us through our consciences, He must have wanted it that way, When we try to fool our consciences, it is c-sa we disobey.

Russell, A9 It's is fight to the finish when it starts, The pe0ple who are in it have no hearts, They hump and scrape, and sometimes scream, You would think it was a nightmare or is had dream. The doors are open: the crowd runs mg The first to the counter is the one to win. A sign in the window explains the fact, Come and get them. ladies! Nylons are hack! Freedom By Natalie Alsei-ty, A9 Like playing a fantastic game of tag l emerge from the mysterious depths of the ocean And come tripping in, laughingly aesigin, the tin, ehilasen Who watch me lap the gentle shores.

The Hill in March By Fred Tschoppi A9 Trll stands the hill, purple and green, Stately trecs and winding ravines- Cocl's work is plainly seen. On this hill where the winds fly by, Hear the children play and cryi Their kittl dance with the wlltling winds Then dbwn they come to rest on the ridge. Night is coming and all is still: Nothing astir upon All nt once we hear a sound 'Tis the friendly cricket, making his rounds. the hill: Then l see it in the gray-dim light- And lhcn it fades, out of sight. Yosemite By csihei-ine Perry, A8 Your lakes so crystal clear, Your pcalts that tower ahove Rcstful high mountain meadows And trnils that we'Ve grown to love.

You're never away from us- ln our dreams you are always there Some day we'll come hack tn you To stay in your land so fair.
