My Little Coffee Shop
I take one step outside.
Cars honking and chatters flood my ears.
A breeze of crisp air brushes against my hair.
Some pigeons in the air appear.
I walk down the steep hill.
I hear my shoes click on the ground as I walk.
I open a door to hear a bell.
I can barely hear myself thinking while everyone talks.
The smell of fresh coffee beans fill my lungs.
I order “May I have a sweetened iced coffee please?”
The coffee’s bittersweet flavor wakes me up.
I look around me some people are eating scones and drinking tea.
I sit at my table while doodling and drinking my coffee.
With my headphones plugged in, my ears only hearing pop.
I forget about all the bad things.
Because I’m in my little coffee shop.
Bella the blanket
Bella is like a big cozy blanket.
Fluffy, loving Blanket is laying over me and sleeping. When Blanket wakes up, the furry
creature suddenly lays on my face and want to play hide and seek.
Bella is like a big cozy blanket.
Big, friendly Blanket laying
on the floor in the kitchen eating its food.
Suddenly the heavy creature lays over me and licking
And licking.
Bella is like a big cozy blanket.
The furry warm Blanket is laying
in the bathtub and are getting scratched behind the ears. Suddenly Blanket stands up and shaking the water off. Woof!
Then Blanket jumps out of the bathtub and walks to Blanket’s bed.
I followed.
Blanket is sleeping.
Confidence
When I was little I always kept stumbling on words.
Then one day I had to take a special test,
And It felt like it took 10 HOURS.
But then one day parents came up to me and said I had dyslexia.
And that changed everything for me.
So from there on I had to take this class once a day with other students like me.
It was fun,
but embarrassing. I was the only one in my class that went.
So when I got up to leave everyone would stare at me like I had a third eye.
Then as I got older I had to take a slightly different test then everyone else.
That got on my nerves so much…everyone would just stare and stare and STARE!
But as I got older I didn’t really care what people thought of me.
Because I was just me.
Then I realized we all have difficulty with something in life.
So no matter what others think…you should
Always
Be
YOU!
Surprise Flying
I was flying,
In a plane above japan
Shooting down other planes,
Then suddenly
There he was,
Somehow riding on a plane
I looked into the pilot area
I saw no one there,
He was shooting down planes
I was in shock!
Using his claws slashing through planes like a pizza cutter cutting a pepperoni pizza
Has a spiky tail like knives slicing through the planes
Then he looked at me,
And gave me a thumbs up
I gave him one too right back at him
Then he flew off
Who knew Godzilla could fly a plane.
THE DRAIN
THE DRAIN is a memory,
I am ready to pitch the baseball,
I aim right for the glove,
I come set.
My mom says, “right down the middle Bran,”
I lift my leg and throw the ball,
I release too early,
the ball goes flying way over my mom’s head,
the ball hops and jumps down the street,
It “bangs” off the curb and keeps rolling,
We yell, “no!”
The ball rolls into THE DRAIN,
my mom looks at me and sighs, “go get another one,”
and we do it all over again.
Numbers
A hope and a wish,
the dying desire,
of just a
Vision,
Just a flurry
Of a view
Of our screwed up
Made up
Fake of real currency
Fat, tall stacks from floor to ceiling.
Spit out across the hall, the drawers, across the walls.
And whatever happened to gold and silver?
Not this fraudulent trash you lay out in front of me.
Real worth, hard work, and yet fake value,
It’s just paper, paper, and ink
Controls our lives, yeah thanks government.
For messing up
This country we live in
What the heck is life for
If our worth is determined
By numbers.
Yeah, it all comes down to numbers
And facing the facts,
Yeah, facts.
Those are kinda important.
Forget about facts, hmm world we live in?
Forget about the lives that you’re destroying?
The people, the ones that you pretend to invest in?
The victims.
The worth of ones
that you,
the leeches,
decide to suck up?
How does that play out?
And in our FAVOR?!
Yeah no,
I think not.
Who do you think you’re kidding?
You may be fooling them
The others
the ones without a sense of your doing,
But we, the people,
(the smart ones at least)
who choose to resist
To take a risk
To raise our voices,
Say
“Let’s end this madness. This stupid system,
that we’re forced through, yes violently forced. And we, the people, who are supposed to decide what this country is doing? But how, with all these empty promises, empty words? This human, this idiotic human is put above the rest of us who never got a chance? And just how is that fair, hmm? Yeah, I didn’t think so.”
You say it’s a democracy, but not for me.
You say we’re all even but that will never come to be.
No, we’ll never be even,
Just look at the facts.
The numbers and the stats everyone pretends to forget
The life that we’re leading
Never meant anything.
How can it if the numbers are all that you see?
Not the person,
but the value put upon them.
And by who you may be wondering,
Just ask the numbers.
Centerville
A small town in the North
With Cornfields stretching f o r e v e r like interstates
And little shops,family owned
A park that people of all ages visit
Especially young kids who want to more than fidget
A local pool 5 dollars a person
With a long slide that makes you ribbon to get in line
The doughnut shop a w a l k i n g distance away
That sells a wide array
Always friendly people
Who b b e with joy at the simplist thing

The Centerville I know & love

Green Hero
A
Pilot had been
Sick for a while
And a lot of people
Weren’t getting to where they
Needed to be for the holidays
Then one person stepped
Up to be the pilot and
Nobody knew who he was
Because he kept hiding in the
Corner of the cockpit
Until one person saw him
“Slimer,” and Slimer said,
“I’m so hungry I could eat a buffet.”
I dream
I dream that,
I will be a doctor,
I will make sure people heal from sickness.
I dream that,
I will be an animal expert,
I will make sure animals stay safe in the wild.
I dream that,
I will be a pilot,
I would take flights safely to its destination
I dream that,
I will be a pro soccer player,
I will be a midfielder for the USA national team.
I dream that,
I will solve world problems.
