My name is Ondrea Marisa Robinson and I am sixteen years old. I was born in Woonsocket Hospital on February 11, 1981. My family history started in South Carolina, but the younger generation was born in Rhode Island. I have a big family, including my mother and my sister, two people that I have lived with all my life. Having a family is important because they are the only ones that are there for me.

 

Anastasia

There was a girl who was very nice;
Her name was Anastasia Lynn Rice.
She was afraid of mice;
But for that, she paid the price.
She wants to have an engagement ring
From her boyfriend, David Antonio Mourning.
Anastasia feels like she has her king
To keep her warm and make her heart sing.
Anastasia has a mother named Victoria
And she has two sisters named Veronica and Gloria.
Her father, Erick, acts like the warrior,
But when they're together, they feel merrier.
Now you know about the girl who was born in Flint;
If anyone doesn't know, he or she better get the hint.
Televisions come with some tint,
But Anastasia Lynn Rice comes with some mint!

How Tiffany Askins Saw The World

Tiffany Askins hated her next-door neighbors;
She hated to ask them for favors.
Everyone always ignored her behavior;
She thought she was better than her Savior.
Tiffany knows she's crazy,
But she's not lazy.
Once the sun is hazy,
She flows like a daisy.
She would rather watch the Detroit Pistons
Than listening to a bunch of Christians.
She wishes she had a sister named Kristin,
But she knew that her mother wouldn't listen.
She feels like she wants to twirl;
Sing, dance, and ball up in a curl.
But can she really be a mature girl?
That's how Tiffany Askins saw the world.

Alonzo

Hey, Alonzo!
I just want you to know
That you can go with the flow.
You don't have to be slow
Because I have to bend low,
So, there you go.
I want your hair to grow,
But not in an Afro!
See you later because I have to go!

The Friends Poem

Patricia Ewing says to get out of her face
Erica Montross will run in the race
Tiffany Mason is often called Tiffany Mase
Jessica Mutombo needs a lot of space
Danielle Minor makes a pink vase
Anastasia Horry bought milk in a case
Deedee Hill doesn't want her food to go to waste
Crystal Hardaway is going to buy pink paste
Lucille Pippen want her cousin to take her place!
