Why we have Memorial Day off of school?

We have Memorial Day off from school because we take that time to remember the people that died in our family or that was close to our family.If the people that know the people that died they might feel sad so they don't want to school or work feeling like crap.That is very sad if they do that & we did have school.People in high school that is in JROTC go put flags on peoples graves.

quatrians

I AS long as Fame’s imperious music rings
Will poets mock it with crowned words august;
And haggard men will clamber to be kings
As long as Glory weighs itself in dust.
II Drink to the splendor of the unfulfilled,	5
Nor shudder for the revels that are done:
The wines that flushed Lucullus are all spilled,
The strings that Nero fingered are all gone.
III We cannot crown ourselves with everything,
Nor can we coax the Fates for us to quarrel:	10
No matter what we are, or what we sing,
Time finds a withered leaf in every laurel.

^ex.Its in the emerald of her colour green.
Remembered in history as dark Roisin.
Erin you are dressed in the mystic of time.
Love speaks of your beauty in manys a rhyme.
About you are stories beyond wealth to hold.
Now that's why your people are so rich in soul.
Dwelling is the truth that can't be bought or sold

Ballad-a song or poem that tells a story in short stanzas and simple words, with repetition, refrain, etc.: most old ballads are of unknown authorship and have been handed down orally in more than one version.

^ex. Oh the ocean waves may roll,
And the stormy winds may blow,
While we poor sailors go skipping aloft
And the land lubbers lay down below, below, below
And the land lubbers lay down below.

Blank Verse- unrhymed verse; esp., unrhymed verse having five iambic feet per line, as in Elizabethan drama

^ex. Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Epic-noting or pertaining to a long poetic composition, usually centered upon a hero, in which a series of great achievements or events is narrated in elevated style: Homer's Iliad is an epic poem.

^ex.By the shore of Gitchie Gumee,
By the shining Big-Sea-Water,
At the doorway of his wigwam,
In the pleasant Summer morning,
Hiawatha stood and waited.

Epitaph-a commemorative inscription on a tomb or mortuary monument about the person buried at that site.

^ex. Here lies a most beautiful lady,
Light of step and heart was she:
I think she was the most beautiful lady
That ever was in the West Country.
But beauty vanishes; beauty passes;
However rare, rare it be;
And when I crumble who shall remember
This lady of the West Country?

Haiku-a major form of Japanese verse, written in 17 syllables divided into 3 lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables, and employing highly evocative allusions and comparisons, often on the subject of nature or one of the seasons.

^ex.Hot June day --

an otter

slips into the sea

Limerick-a kind of humorous verse of five lines, in which the first, second, and fifth lines rhyme with each other, and the third and fourth lines, which are shorter, form a rhymed couplet.

^ex.And let me the canakin clink, clink;
And let me the canakin clink
A soldier's a man;
A life's but a span;
Why, then, let a soldier drink."

Narrative-a story or account of events, experiences, or the like, whether true or fictitious.

^ex."By the shore of Gitchie Gumee,
By the shining Big-Sea-Water,
At the doorway of his wigwam,
In the pleasant Summer morning,
Hiawatha stood and waited."

Sonnet-Prosody. a poem, properly expressive of a single, complete thought, idea, or sentiment, of 14 lines, usually in iambic pentameter, with rhymes arranged according to one of certain definite schemes, being in the strict or Italian form divided into a major group of 8 lines (the octave) followed by a minor group of 6 lines (the sestet), and in a common English form into 3 quatrains followed by a couplet.

^ex.Talking to myself there
Someone had overheard.
I was lost for a word.
There was nothing to share.
Embarrassed I was there.
Left awkward and absurd .
A broken wingless bird.
With nowhere to fly there.
Caught red faced there was I.
Didn't want to be seen.
I just wanted to die.
I just wanted to scream.
I'm so terribly shy.
Lost for words it would seem.
