I'm sorry I never ujpdated my journal but I was busy and I kind of for got I even had a livejournal for a matter of fact. I was doing my homework assignment and then I needed a example of my friends poem so I went on livejournal here is what I got for my work....
Shannon Drew is one of my best friends and I know her the better than the rest of the others. She is an artist when it comes to drawing. What ever she sees in her mind she puts on the paper and she has a very good reason for it. Then she is an artist in digital photography she is very creative. She can take something dull and add it to nice scenery to make it blend with the back ground. Next is that Shannon is a poet to and she speaks it from her heart. When you read it you can feel and understand what she is feeling. You can relate to what she is saying also, her poetry usually touches you in many ways. Another is that she always speaks the truth when I want to her it or not. When I told her about having two jobs and that would interfere with my work at school and how it will help me move out of my parent’s house.
Shannon is an artist when it comes to picturing something in her mind she can create it and it will come out beautiful. There was one time in high school when she had to do an assignment on how she would draw herself drawing a picture. Of courses the students took a picture of them and drew it. Shannon was on of the best in the classroom, only two people did the best it was her and a young bright student named Pierre. They also got their pictures put in the art gallery in are home town. It was a contest against who would be the best drawing and I told myself it was going to be them. Instead it was two other people that one the prize, but their pictures were still at the gallery the whole entire year. When I go to her house and see that master piece I say to myself, “those judges were blind I know that they should of put on there glasses to see two beautiful creative work and put a blue ribbon for each of them.” But that’s my opinion and Shannon still does what she dues best, draw.
She is also a digital photographer and what ever she sees is dull she makes it better. Shannon can make it blend with the background and she can make a masterpiece out of it and you would just want to hang it on your wall. She had an assignment and she had to take pictures of the cemetery and she stayed until nine o’ clock she took about twenty-four pictures. Each of them she put in lighter colors, put some words for meaning, made them smaller, cut and paste, and she printed them. Shannon did everything she could to make it look better than it was to make it her own. Once she was finished she presented it to the class and it was wonderful. She choice the night pictures and she put herself in the pictures with her black long dress. It made her look very evil, but beautiful at the same time.
Also she is a poet and she can make all kinds of dark, happy, strange, and unusual things come out on paper and you can understand what she’s talking about because some of it you have gone through it in parts of your life. All she writes and always what she is feeling, for example:
Someday
When my life has passed me by
I lay around and wonder why you were always there for me
One way
In the eyes of a passerby
I look around for another try and fade away
Just close your eyes and I’ll take you there
This place is warm without a care
We’ll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave and you reach for me
Some say
Better things will come our way
No matter what they try to say
You were always there for me
Someway
When the sun begins to shine I hear a song from another time and fade away
And fade away
Just close your eyes and I’ll take you there
This place is warm without a care
We’ll take a swim in the deep blue sea
I go to leave and you reach for me
Someone said you tried to long
Someone said we got it all
Someone said we tried to long
Is there a place where I belong
So far so long
So far away
So far so wrong
So far away
Somday
When my life has passed me by
I lay around and wonder why you were always there for me
One way
In the eyes of a passerby
I look around for another try and fade away
And fade away
From: Shannon Drew
I envy her sometimes when she does her wonderful work when she wants to be alone and she creates one of her masterpieces.
Shannon she always speaks the truth even thought I don’t want to hear it and we usually fight because we sometimes are right. Their was one time when me and her went to
In conclusion, Shannon Drew is one of my best friends and I know her the better than the rest of the others. She is an artist when it comes to drawing. What ever she sees in her mind she puts on the paper and she has a very good reason for it. Then she is an artist in digital photography she is very creative. She can take something dull and add it to nice scenery to make it blend with the back ground. Next is that Shannon is a poet to and she speaks it from her heart.

Another is that she always speaks the truth when I want to her it or not.
