  1. Cradled in our cranium,
    Is where you'll find our brain-ium,
    Enables us to think and do,
    Remembers what! Remembers who!
    When we're feeling fine, or pained,
    We're utilizing our large brain,
    Like we do,
    When we think...
    Let’s us see, makes us blink…
    Some functions are involuntary,
    Breathing air is one of many,
    Digesting food!
    Our beating heart!
    Controlled by brain!
    Our crucial part!
    Connects straight-up with spinal cord,
    Synapse, nerve,
    It's never bored,
    Gives us feelings,
    Does great things!
    Let's thank our brains for all they bring!


    HAHAHAHAHAH I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN I READ THE SECOND LINE!!

    3 types of rock,
    Are really a must,
    These types of rocks,
    Create Earth's crust,
    earth
    Igneous rocks,
    When lava halts,
    Are volcanic rocks,
    Like mafic basalts,
    basalt rock
    Sedimentary rocks,
    Should it be known,
    Compressed like coal,
    Or like limestone,
    limestone
    Temp and pressure,
    At extremes?
    Metamorphic rock,
    Is formed it seems,
    sedeimentary rock
    4 billion years,
    Rock's been here!
    So I don’t think,
    They’ll disappear!
    Used for tools,
    From times of old,
    Or are they ores,
    With lead or gold?
    4 billion years,
    Of rocks, I said,
    Like those used,
    By a dude named Fred Flintstone
    :D

  3. I woke up on this beautiful
    Earth Day morning and heard
    the Earth laughing
    Her lilacs were shaking
    Her tulips were full of dew from her tears
    Dropped of a nervous laugh
    Not a joyful one
    A laugh that comes from a place
    of disbelief
    As her soaring eagles observed
    The holes drilled into her oceans
    The caverns dug into her mountains
    The efforts to squeeze the last drop
    Of resources out of her
    Gave her reason to laugh
    The kind of what-are-you-thinking laugh
    And she laughed with a shudder of
    mourning dove wings at this peculiar species
    This two legged creature so smart in some ways
    So naïve in others..
    "To have conquered flight
    To have reached my moon
    To tap into my resources and turn them into
    Schools and libraries, to hospitals and universities
    Speaks to your cleverness"
    she said through a whisper of a cloud
    "But to behave as if I can keep up with your inventions
    To act as if I have enough fuel to fund your
    Never ending wars
    To ignore the signs of your damage which
    Are melting my icecaps drowning my islands and
    Killing my polar bears as you
    populate my landscapes far beyond their capacity.
    My water cycles' ability to quench your thirst
    Is at best naïve and at worst self-destructive
    I am exhausted!
    Please know I cannot offer what you demand of me
    I cannot offer infinite resources that took me
    Billions of years to create
    I cannot offer you
    What you ask of me, by the 9,000 more of you added per hour
    For my resources cannot supply
    An endless stream of you and your modern ways
    And the more of you that get that in your hearts
    As well as your heads
    The sooner I will heal and be able to sustain
    A saner number of you and my other creatures
    which aren't as clever
    Or naive.

    Function of nervous system
    The nervous system has a lot of functions
    Which commences to keep you from dysfunction
    One of them is to gather information
    That we get from sensations
    Then send it to the brain through neurons as a vibration
    An impulse to the central nervous system power station
    Motor neurons then call on the effectors
    To the brain they are the directors
    Either the somatic or autonomic system
    There are a lot of reactions in your body; I’m not gonna list them

  5. Bobby tried to booty shake,
    But couldn’t bust a move!
    Had no muscles, in his body,
    Skeletal or smooth…
    muscles
    Yes, he had no mighty muscles,
    To blink or lift a penny,
    penny
    Tried to walk, run, and smile,
    Of those, he can’t do any…
    Yes, you need some mighty muscles,
    To move your skeleton,
    skeleton
    Don’t have any muscles?
    Be motionless like him…

  6. An organism is alive
    Like animals and you
    But also plants and trees
    Are organisms too

    The place where they live
    Is their habitat
    With all that they need
    And that is that

    Plants need sunlight
    To produce some more
    But then they’re eaten
    By a herbivore

    Carnivores eat only meat
    But some eat more than that
    An omnivore gets meat and plants
    Within their habitat

    Predators have eagle eyes
    To find their prey to eat
    The prey can see all around
    So they don’t become the meat

    Organisms, (except us)
    All eat and they are eaten
    The food chain is efficient….
    Because nature can’t be beaten.

  7. Let your fingers explore the wonderfulgarbage by Clarita
    crevices of the globe, sitting aside pen holders,
    paper cups, things made of the earth. Your fingertips
    smile at the notion that they can “see”

    such wonders as the Grand Canyon, Sahara Desert,
    Atlantic Trench, all while lifting a mug of cocoa
    to your lips, adjusting the volume on
    your shuffled playlist.

    The leaves will brush up against
    the windowpane, then kissing their glossy skin
    to the lightsource like insects. Do plants ever feel

    cold? You’ll shudder a glacierwide dread, counting
    your blessings that you aren’t spending the night
    beneath a bridge. But that would never have been

    you anyway. Your fingers will find the Pacific Ocean
    and think nothing of the plastic island as big as Texas.http://www.sciencerhymes.com.au/your-poems

  9. Science! true daughter of Old Time thou art!
    Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes.
    Why preyest thou thus upon the poet’s heart,
    Vulture, whose wings are dull realities?
    How should he love thee? or how deem thee wise,
    Who wouldst not leave him in his wandering
    To seek for treasure in the jewelled skies,
    Albeit he soared with an undaunted wing?
    Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car,
    And driven the Hamadryad from the wood
    To seek a shelter in some happier star?
    Hast thou not torn the Naiad from her flood,
    The Elfin from the green grass, and from me
    The summer dream beneath the tamarind tree?

  11. Plants doin' that,
    Plants doin' this,
    Plants doing photosynthesis!
    Plants are making,
    Sweet fresh food,
    Use sunlight, water,
    C-O-2!
    Plants don't eat,
    Can't share a meal,
    But photosynthesize with zeal!
    Chlorophyll,
    A pigment green,
    Used to make,
    Sweet plant cuisine!
    Lets those plants,
    Feed us all,
    Lets green plants,
    Feed the world!
    Plants return,
    O2 to breathe,
    Better hope,
    Those plants,
    Don't leave!

    In any way!

  16. He creeps and he crawls,
    8 legs can be seen,
    His name is just spider,
    And sometimes he’s mean...
    I hope none are hiding,
    Inside my room,
    I hope there’s no spiders,
    From noon to next noon!
    He isn’t an insect,
    A common mistake,
    He’s an arachnid,
    And webs he can make...
    spider
    Like mites, and like ticks,
    Has 2 body parts,
    Hunts for his food,
    Predator smarts!
    I don’t want him in there,
    Under my bed,
    He should be outside,
    In nature instead...
    No antennae or wings!
    Like moths, flies, and fleas,
    Hatches from egg sacs,
    spiderlings
    Not larvae like bees…
    He’s sporting some fangs,
    For biting and eating,
    I hope that mean spider,
    I’ll never be meeting!
    Please move that spider,
    Use a long broom,
    I can’t sleep when spiders,
    Are sharing my room…

  17. Science is fun
    But it makes me want to run
    When there is too much work
    I want to stab someone with a fork
    The class is crazy
    I try not to be lazy
    But when I am Mr Ruby puts me in my place
    He takes me by my shirt and punches me in the face
    Jk he doesn't do that
    He just verbally abuses us by calling us fat
    He is actually an awesome teacher
    Well now he talks more and sounds like a preacher
    We learned about rocks and the human body system
    When he is absent we all really miss him
    Snow day science is a big deal
    It's not as serious, well you get the feel
    Chemical or mechanical, both are weathering
    They Break down rocks, it really is quite a cool thing
    Science IS REAL I can prove it
    Now get back to work, c'mon, move it!

  19. What connects my bones together?
    Asked the student in the sweater,
    Teacher said, and laughed, and laughed,
    It’s crazy glue and argon gas!
    crazy glue
    The student frowned,
    And groaned some groans,
    There’s no glue that holds my bones!
    Teacher said,
    Yes, you’re right,
    Glue could come undone at night,
    Your body wouldn’t have a form,
    Just like ice cubes, when it’s warm!
    Does any student know the truth?
    What makes bones unlike a tooth?

  20. The cell membrane is like the guard to a door
    Things taken in while others it will ignore
    The nucleus is the center of them all
    It controls the whole cell and is always on the ball
    The mitochondria produces ATP
    So you have enough energy to run and be free
    The vacuoles are like the storage centers
    Only specified things are allowed to enter
    Rough ER and Smooth ER are in here too
    And the lysosomes are the cleanup crew

  22. Trees, trees
    Home of the bees,
    bee
    Home of the seeds,
    The buds,
    And the leaves...
    Home of a bird,
    A chipmunk,
    A bat...
    bat
    Trees make their own food,
    But never get fat!!!
    fat tree
    They live quite a while,
    Like a very long time,
    Get older than Grandpa & Grandma combined!
    For tens,
    And hundreds,
    And thousands of years,
    They give shade to our picnics,
    picnic
    And food to our deers...
    And all trees make flowers,
    flowers
    And all trees make fruits,
    acorns
    And all trees have trunks,
    elephant trunk
    And all trees have roots...
    From bananas
    banana
    To chestnuts,
    To apples,
    apple
    To plums,
    Trees give us good food,
    They're really our chums!
    chums
    We use sap to make syrup,
    And rubber, and fuel,
    We use wood to make chairs,
    chairs
    To sit down at school...
    But without all your help,
    And without your concern,
    We won't have enough trees,
    And for trees we will yearn,
    desert
    Because trees give us things,
    That we need to survive,
    Like trees(or oxygen) to breathe,
    To live and to thrive...
    And trees don't take much,
    for all that they give,
    They only need sunlight,
    And water to live...
    sunlight + water
    Well maybe some soil,
    To hold themselves up,
    And maybe some love,
    So they don't get cut up...
    cut up trees
    Cut down or cut up,
    However you view it,
    We all need green trees,
    So save one,
    Just do it!!!

  23. A poem by ME (Mr. Ruby, I challenge you to rap this in class.)

    Science is real
    Science is now.
    Most of us
    don't know how.
    Science is here,
    Science is there,
    Science is everywhere.

    Science is real,
    Science is now.
    Everyone uses it
    Then 'till now.
    From gravity to force,
    Without remorse.
    Science is here,
    Science is there,
    Science is everywhere.

    Science is real,
    Science is now.
    To make something,
    Create something,
    Learn from the past.
    Science is here,
    Science is there,
    Science is everywhere.

  24. Sun Poem

    sun
    I’m front and center of it all,
    Big ol’ burning, bright gas ball...
    Planets spin around my girth,
    Saturn, Neptune,
    Venus, Earth...
    You couldn't live,
    You couldn't see...
    Without strong solar energy,
    I’m the mother of it all,
    Summer, winter, spring through fall,
    My light provides,
    For plants to grow,
    I’m the cause of rain and snow,
    My light's sunlight,
    Shows the way,
    Because of me,
    There’s night and day,
    I’m the Sun,
    A burning star,
    Without my heat,
    You won’t go far,
    There’s no life,
    Without my shine...
    That’s why I burn,
    All the time...
