Does APA format have to have the page number on each sheet of paper and the list of references cited on the last page does that count as word count?

Yes you should number each page, and at the end will be your works cited (which are all the references you used throughout the paper). Don't forget in text citations. The list of references on the works cited page is not part of the word count.

1. alliteration

2. wistful

her eyes water as she let her go

her mothers hand goes limp

face white and pale

lips blue and stale

she is gone

sadness fills her body

she collapses to her knees

as her mothers disease leaves the girl alone
