Grateful

Definition of Grateful - (adjective) feeling or showing an appreciation of kindness; thankful.

Over the last few weeks, the ACMS Student Council has been spending time thinking about how they can show how grateful they are for all of the work that gets put into having our school run. They decided that they wanted to show their appreciation for the administrators, administrative assistants, the kitchen staff, and the custodial staff. The Student Council broke into groups and came up with a ways to show their appreciation.

There I see you

Nighthawks by Edward Hopper; collection of the Art Institute of Chicago

There I see you 

Through the glass.

You’re blurry but clear, 

Like us.

You think of me as a friend,

I think of you like the world. 

You’re so vast, 

I’m so tiny.

I’m always in the dark, 

And you’re in the light.

Your popular,

I’m not.

This world is filled with people,

But this small town isn’t.

You’d never notice me,

But yet you notice others.

Your extraordinary,

With a touch of inspiration.

The world would be different,

Without you.

I don’t understand why,

Why I don’t have confidence.

When you don’t have to worry,

Worry about anything.

You’ve got alot,

Alot more than you know. 

One thing you’re missing,

Is me.
