                                                                Final Farewell
                                                 It was a normal day or so I thought
                                     
                                  That I would lose one of the people I love so dear

                           I was told that  my father passed away I couldn't take the pain
                       
                    I cried all day long until I had to leave to see my father one more time...

                    Many family members came to my father's funeral to pay their respects

                                        So many of us cried on that depressive day

                              They put his coffin within the hole under his tombstone

                                      This was the most horrible tragedy of my life 

                            I couldn't stop crying over the fact that my father passed away

                             Before leaving to go back home I said my final words to him:

"Dad wherever you are I hope you are alright. I'll miss you forever and I wish the best of luck   
where ever you are right now. I love you daddy."

    Once that day ended I had a dream of where there was a long road with a light at the end

                            There was a man at the end of the road in a white suit
          
  It was my father and he said: "Son I love you and I hope you live your life to the fullest."

                                    Carry on and don't mourn kid. I'll see you soon."

  Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins is about a young girl named Katniss along with other characters who are in a game that determines whether they live or die. Basically, the setting of this story takes place in Panem (apparently it is in North America after certain devastating situation.) There are 12 districts which are made up of the poor people of Panem. There was once 13 districts instead of 12 but since the 13th district was destroyed the rich people of Panem decide to make up an event called 'The Hunger Games'. The Hunger Games calls out kids from each district to fight to the death for the entertainment of others. Katniss meets a boy named Peeta in which they are taken to the Capitol and are taught on what to do during the Hunger Games. During the Hunger Games Katniss goes through some traumatic events which causes the emotion of the story to be sad and depressive. However, in the end Katniss is able to get through her problems, and along with Peeta, she wins the Hunger Games

  Some people say this book should be banned because it tells us about kids are fighting to kill each other in order to entertain those who want action. I do not think this book should be banned because it is a great book and teaches us about survival. Honestly in a few years this book would be considered a classic and is a great journey to read. It can sometimes get sad and relate to the audience.
