Washington, DC Haiku

Week 1

 

Washington DC

Cultural society

There are poor and rich.

 

Those who are oppressed

Working to make a living

Sometimes get the boot.

 

Things that happen here

Are sure to make history

For good and for bad.

 

– Aaron Cook, Mirella Rodriquez, Kylie Crawford, Stephanie Stoner, Brittany McCullock


 

Colorful flowers

People praying in church

Huge basilica.

 

Loud red flashing lights

Candles burning everywhere

Rain falling from sky.

 

Beautiful murals

Diversity in D.C.

The metro was fun.

 

– Brian Vinniski,  Lauren Seale,  Erica Hevener,  Kimberly Heatwole,  Haley Thomas


 

Seventh street walking

Good friendship is at arch

Coffee fills the air.

 

Concrete surrounds us

Multi-language signs and sounds

Connects the city.

 

People everywhere

Everyone was very nice

Met many along the way.
