KG My Peace Poem
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/8/2006 11:00 PM
To me peace feels no wars, no violence.

To me peace feels like being or feeling like a puppy. Peace is not destroying a good friendship, sharing good ideas with one and a other and helping some one when they are feeling down or left out.

Peace is like a leaf ; it does not have to fight to survive. Peace is like flower, beautiful and harmless.

HR Peace Poem
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM

Peace feels quiet, and fun.

It feels happy, and friendly like to never touch a gun .

It feels like geting a nice new pet .

It feels like your best friend.

You feel like nothing compared to peace.


DH Peaceful Life
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM
Peace has sound and scent.It feels fresh
like the Spring breeze and wide like all of our
imagination combined. It sounds peaceful as
if someone was playing the violin very softly.

Peace also means different things for many
different people, mayve their opinion is much
different than mine but, for me, Peace is a life
of Freedom.

DS Feelings of Peace
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM
Peace feels like...
Sunflowers swaying in the breeze,
The soft touch of happiness,
The hug of a father home from war,
A father, who is not going back to die.

IT On the Patio
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM
Lying in the sun.
A calm and carefree mind.
Reading a book.
Listening to the quiet, gentle wind.

AA Peace Feels Like...
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM
Peace feels like the delicious sense of safety, like being in a cosy bed.
It feels like an ocean sunset, gleaming red.
Peace feels like doves flying in the air, with peaceful care.
The conflicts of the world are too much to bear.

OC A World Without War
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM

Peace feels like not touching a gun, not feeling lead in you, not feeling angry or sad.

Feeling nice and warm and happy, not war and coldness.

It is like a big soft cloud, or like a warm blanket over you.

Having a quiet world revolving around you.

Like hearing only the sound of laughing, not gunfire.


BD Sleeping Peace
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM

Peace is like sleeping.

You are relaxed and aand every thing around you is quite.

It is like you are on a soft fluffy pillow were every thing is calm.

That is when you don't have a care in th world.

That is what I think peace feels like.


ZS I Feel Peace
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM
Each day I feel peace...
It feels warm, soft and fuzzy.

Each day I feel peace
I feel happy and safe.

Each day I feel peace
I feel free and comfortable.

Each day I feel peace
It does not feel like war or death.

Each day I feel peace
It does not feel frightening.

Each day I feel peace
It feels warm, soft and fuzzy.

I wish every child could feel peace all the time.

DP Freedom
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM

Peace feels like a soft breeze running through your hair, and it makes me think of Freedom.

When you do something good, it makes you feel mighty and greatful.

Peace is : no war, being kind to one another, and not touching a gun or using it.

Some good things and some not good things make me think of Peace and Freedom.


AC If the World Lived in Peace
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM

If the world lived in peace...


You would never ask "What is a gun?" because it wouldn't exist.
If you heard the word pain or sorrow you would ask what such words mean.

You would wonder what war and fight means.

You would ask what does it feel like to break a friendship?

God would look down at us with happiness and not sorrow.

I know there is such a thing as peace and it's out there. This makes me happy I live in Canada a peaceful country.


If only all people understood and lived in peace then the world would truly live in peace.


CB Peace
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM
Peace is a wonderful feeling.
I think peace is feeling calm.
Peace is also very wonderful.
I think this because of the expression "ahh this is so peaceful. "

ME Peace Feels Like...
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM
Peace feels like…

…Flowers swaying in the breeze.
…you have freedom.
…everybody is safe.
…a boost for life.
…a calm happiness
…the biggest link to success


JA Peace Poem
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/4/2006 11:00 PM
Peace is like a blanket that protects the whole world.
But deep down in a corner where some evil men have burrowed,
A few men hate this blanket and try to tear it into shreads.
The idea of it fills me up with dread.
Tons and tons of people try to tear our blanket down.
But we won't let it happen 'til our blanket comes unwound.
When some one hears my idea they might laugh at me,
But it's fine if one kid loves it if that one kid is me.

ACd What Does Peace Feel Like?
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/3/2006 11:00 PM
What does peace feel like?
I think peace feels like: Freedom, honnor, even a nice light tree.
But what I really think peace is..is respect and kindness for other people: Freinds, family, and even strangers just respect them.
That is what I think peace is.

SB Peace Peace Peace
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/3/2006 11:00 PM

Peace feels like watching a sunset, being free.

Peace is the most important thing in the world.

Without peace the world would not be the same.

Peace changed the world as we know it.

Peace should make you happy.

We under think peace.

Peace is a big part of our Life.


To me peace is being free!


SH Peace Poem
Ms. Elkins Student Work 2006-2007 By elkina@sjr.mb.ca on 10/3/2006 11:00 PM

Peace feels happy.

A place where peace acts is a place with no war, no one getting hurt, but only the soft tweet of birds and people having happy conversations.

laughter, fun and pure happines is what you would see.

You would smell only the smell of flowers coming from every direction and the smell of a fresh loaf of bread drifting from the window of the bakery.

You would feel a soft warm breeze blowing on your face.

As you are amazed of this town's lack of violence.
