| Michael Denson Title: The Difference in My Voice Grade: 7 Adams Middle School PTSA “I wrote this poem to show that there are many ways that I use my voice, in different situations of my life. I show my voice to express my feelings. I show my voice to stand up for myself. I show my voice everyday.” |

Intermediate Division (Grades (3-5)
| Ella Lee Title: Footprints Grade: 5 Horace Mann Elementary PTA “Footprints seems like a vague poem at first, but it reveals how even though some people try to put you down, your voice will tell them the truth. They can’t let you down, and you will continue to fix the cracks in a broken world. The poem is about following in the “footprints” of people who used their voice to stand up for themselves.” |

Middle School Division (Grades 6-8)
| Olivia De Abreu Title: A Society of Lemmings Grade: 8 Bernardo Heights Middle School PTSA “My poem talks about and explains the strict culture we live in today. “A Society of Lemmings” explains how it feels to grow up in a world where the way we look and act is chosen before hand. My work relates to the theme because it also explains why we must fight against the societal norms and voice our opinions.” |
