Children's Winner: Bryce Johnson

"The Magical Library"

I walked into a Library,

Decided to have a look.

Then my eyes stumbled on a

mysterious magic looking book.

My curiousity got the best of me

So I had to pick it up and have a see.

It opened a portal within my mind.

It let me see what no one else could see.

Adult Winner: Ronnie Cornett

In a Book

In a Book you can find,

your imagination will take off and fly.

You can imagine yourself almost anywhere,

with anything or anyone.

Pick up a Book and you'll find,

you will be able to expand your mind.
