| "I
like writing poems about Hidden Villa because if
I feel sad or have a bad day and I read those poems
they make me feel good because it reminds me of all
my experiences at Hidden Villa and I get something
in my head that I can think of that is good." -

Hidden
Villa
Hidden
Villa is the silence of the forest
Like watching the deer
Pass by with their freedom,
Watching the sheep eat
When my friends are feeding them,
Watching the horses run by us.
Seeing
the trees makes me be silent
As if I was one of them,
Watching the mountain up high
Makes me think how silent it is,
How high up it is.
Watching
out for myself
By not getting touched by poison oak,
Seeing those snakes pass by wondering
if they would do me some harm.
But they really don’t,
Being with my close friends
And telling each other things,
And at night
watching the stars up high.

Field
Trip Day
Beams
of sun
sparkling sky
cold yet warm
Bay
laurel
lovely fragrance
luscious shade
Fuzzy
trees
mossy green
winter coat
Smiles
awake
laughing kids
one good team
Bus
comes rumbling
we get on
goodbye for now
As
we ride
tales of times
hopes for more.

Noche
Oscuro
en el bosque.
Oscuro…Oscuro…
Donde veo está oscuro
Escucho los animales mover los árboles,
pero no sabemos cual animal los movió.
En el bosque está muy oscuro.
Oscuro
en el bosque.
Oscuro…Oscuro…
Donde veo está oscuro
Me siento como si fuera el bosque.
Mi pelo son los árboles,
mis dedos son las raices
y mi cabeza la luna.
Oscuro
en el bosque.
Oscuro…Oscuro…
Donde veo está oscuro
En el bosque hay muchas estrellas.
Ver a las estrellas me siento mejor.
Me siento como una estrella muy, muy alto.
Me siento que veo todo.

Cindy
and the Sheep
Cindy,
so sweet,
likes taking care
of sheep,
likes feeding
them
alfalfa,
likes rubbing
their backs
feeling their
warm
wool,
likes kissing
their
gentle faces,
even likes
giving them
a trip
around the
round,
giant trees,
running with
them over
the river,
as they
enjoy
the
so sweet,
Cindy.
