My Trip To Coupeville

Today i took a trip to coupeville with lindsey and angie. We went to coupeville to see are good friend madison. Madison went to our school last year but this year she decided to go to coupeville. We left the school today at the end of 3rd period. When we got to her house we went into her room and started putting streamers all over but before we finished we had to leave to go to her school. When we got to her school it was about halfway through lunch. We walked around her school until we found there lunch room. I spotted her first and then we went up behind her and tappped on her shoulder we. She turned around she screamed really loud. After she had given each of us about ten hugs she loooked at the cake we brought. It was frosted with purple and white frosting. When she cut it i took a big peice and so did all of the other kids at that lunch table. After there lunch we walked with madison to class. When madison went into class we went back out to angies car. We drove back to madisons house and got out. We went back into her room to decorate more, we hrough streamers all over her room and wrote on her chalkboard door and took pictures on her computer. When we were all done decorating her room we put the cake we made on her bed ( we made two cakes, we took one to her at her school). We went outside and hung a huge poster in her barn that said HAPPY BIRTHDAY! we left after that and drove back to school we got back at about 12:30. And that was my trip to coupeville.

Intimate poem

Dear Stevens Pass,

I wish you would stay snowy
all year long.
I wish you would stay white
like my tee shirt in July.
Instead of putting on
your ugly brown outfit.
You should stay white
and pillowy.
All year long

just to say poem

Dear Alissa,
I am very sorry for shooting your horse.
It looked delicious, I had to try it.
The bullet went through it's head,
like a warm knife through butter.

I skewered a piece of its belly
and cooked it over an open fire.
It was delicious you should try some,
with some BBQ sauce.

Riddle

i am made of glass
i have red inside
i rise when it gets hot
i lower when its cold
i am poisonous to humans
i can tell when you are ill
what am I?
