Spring

A field of long grass

Many trees laid behind me

Wish I could stay here

Lost Time

I want back lost time

But I don’t think I’ll get it

That will have to do

The Dog

My floors traced with mud

The sounds of water lapping

His fur is so soft

Memories

Photographs hung up

Filled with sweet smiles and laughter

I hope to make more

Stars

Reach for the gold stars

Hung so high above us all

I want to grab one

About the Contributors

Kenz Johnsrud, Ads Manager

Hi, my name is Mackenzie but I go by Kenz. I am a Sophomore and this is my first year at Timberline. I don’t have any experience in journalism but I love writing, and I am so excited to be a part of the newspaper staff. I joined newspaper because I’m interested in writing and current events in the world. I love to be in the loop by reading and watching news, so being the person to give out the news and write about that seems awesome. My strengths include writing, especially short stories. I mainly like to write, direct, and edit short films. One goal I have for the year is to give clubs, students, and activities the recognition they deserve. I really like arts and crafts. While I’m not the greatest at drawing, I like anything to do with crafts. It ranges from origami, painting, crocheting, and working with clay.

Dylan Wheelwright, Lead Photo Editor

I am Dylan Wheelwright, a sophomore at Timberline High School. I am from Boise Idaho, but I spend summers in Coeur D’alene, Idaho. I enjoy sports, photography, writing poems, and argumentation. When I came to the Taste of Timberline event, I saw a senior I knew from soccer by the newspaper stand. She told me about the class and she thought I would have a lot of fun. (she was right). She said I would get to photograph and write about a lot of different subjects. I became interested in journalism because I was told it looks good for college, I would get to do a variety of different stories, learn more about the school, and the world of newspapers in general. I am excited to photograph and write for this class. I am a good listener, note taker, have good photography skills, and some writing skills too. I have done many interviews of students and teachers in past classes. I have created good communication and interviewing skills from AVID, and Photo 1&2 has really stepped up my skills for photography. I hope to accomplish many things in newspaper journalism this year. Including meeting new people, getting involved in Timberline activities, learning about journalism, and a lot more! I really love playing tennis for Timberline. I’ve been playing at Timberline for two years, now hopefully three. I love going out and doing activities with my friends, and practicing soccer skills with my younger sister.
