30 chapters!!! That's a new record! Well, that isn't saying much. But I'm getting better at this! I'll update taken and changed again because Nicko_Heap said she liked it. So anyways on with the chapter!!!

(Also, before I start, I wanted to say I do not own any of this poem. So I just wanted to let y'all know. I found this in my literature book today in school.)

Speech to the Young
Speech to the Progress-Toward
(Among them Nora and Henry III)
By Gwendolyn Brooks

Say to them,
say to the down-keepers,
the sun-slappers,
the self-spoilers,
the harmony-hushers,
"Even if you are not ready for day
it cannot always be night."
You will be right.
For that is the hard home-run

Live not for battles won.
Live not for the-end-of-the-song.
Love in the along.

Cool isn't it?! I thought so! I really love that poem so I decided to share if with y'all incase you'd like it as well. Kay thanks, byeeeee!
