To Be a Cat

Oh to be a ball of fluff
It doesn’t even sound like much
But to be a cat
I would enjoy just that

To climb a tree,
Filled with glee
To be a cat
I would enjoy just that

To have nine lives
I could just relive
To be a cat
I would enjoy just that

To get petted nice and snug
I could get a hug
To be a cat
I would enjoy just that

Eternity

Eternity
Lasting Forever
Going on and on
Starting at the end
Ending at the beginning
So it always repeats
And never ends

Before the world came to be
After it is gone
winding through the grassy plains
Climbing up mountains
Winding through different universes
Oh, It’s forever

Eternity, Eternity
Some love you
Some loathe you
You create age but
Unlike life
You are there
After they are gone

The Ice and the Snow

The ice and snow is so great
I can’t wait to go ice skate
Some people hate the ice and snow
and would rather stay inside and drink hot cocoa

The ice and snow is so great
It will be here all winter in this state
but when it has melted all away
all the people will say, see you next winter time

Beautiful Earth

Like a dandelion in the wind
Or the waves crashing down on the shore
The sky and the trees and the fish
They’re beautiful to the core
Like the frost in the delicate winters
Melting into blooming spring
From the wolves to the butterflies in the sky
Lovely scales, fur, and wings
Like a robin singing sweetly in the morning
Or the moon on a nice clear night
Like a ladybug crawling on a flower
All shining in the light
Everything the earth provides
Mother nature is so kind

Rain Fun

As I sit outside the smell
of rain finds me. I go to

Jump in puddles, soon I
feel water splashing up
my legs.

I laugh with joy.
I open my mouth and stick
out my tongue to taste the
rain.

I run and slide my fingers
on the wet benches. Then
I hear the booming thunder

Brave Voices

Once there was a victim unheard
Trapped and enslaved in a cage like a bird
But at one time that cage blew away
Knowing it was her time, her day
The bird flew away to tell her story
The horror, oh the horror
But they found in her glory
The strength that she wields
Her voice and her shield
Because of her, all the birds flew
And they knew
“Me too.”
