Aaron D’Souza, 10San Diego, CA Island Head Aaron D’Souza, 10 I created this image in Photoshop which I have been doing for one year. This is a picture of me as an island. To me, this image is an inspiration that even though we are alone amidst the Coronavirus we can still be happy as shown in the image. The way I created this picture is by attaching separate rock textures on certain areas of my face. Then I added the coral and the lighting to make it look natural. Finally, I added the ships, sharks, and the whale. Island Head (digital art with photoshop)by Aaron D’Souza, 10, San Diego, CA

Overwhelming Panic, a poem by Samson Brown, 13
Samson Brown, 13Cary, NC Overwhelming Panic Samson Brown, 13 Sickness Darkness Silence The muffled tones Of my friend voices Words I don’t understand Sounds I wish not to hear The Darkness all around me, Swallowing me Is this death? No breath escapes my lips My chest aches I know I should breathe But I can’t I hear My friends’ voices Behind me They don’t know They don’t know I’m being swallowed And they’re blissfully Ignorant They do not know My pain My heartache The suffocating They do not know Do they even know I’m here? Maybe I should call for help But they don’t answer They don’t know I’m gone now No one can help me Not breathing Not moving Yet shaking, somehow Maybe that’s how I know I am still alive But I’m not Both Alive And Dead But neither Somewhere In-between
