Shakita: R.I.P.

By Shakita Paige, Grade 7

He was 17 years of age
and his life is gone
My cousin Bruce Paige
tried to hang on

The ice cold water took him underneath
now my family members have to live with such sad grief
They found his body floating around
When I heard the news my knees got weak and I hit the ground

Tears welled my face 600 at least
But it’s OK; he’s in heaven now, he’ll Rest in peace.
