Life is quickly moving
a never-ceasing race
where each and every one of us
is fighting for first place

But maybe if we paused
if even just to breathe
we might begin to notice
All the Little Things

If you look you’ll find them
safely tucked away
snuggled up in secret corners
untouched by the chaos called today

You might not always see them
but know that they are there
in the smell of baking cookies
in the purring of the kitten on the chair

They lurk in every trill of laughter
dwell in the heart of every grin
come knocking with the sun beams
if we’d only let them in

Some people long for riches
others hunger after fame
but if they’d look again
they might see it’s not the same

For when everything important
appears to drift away
Take comfort in the thought that
All the Little Things will stay

I walk into the classroom
And see a big purple man,
With what appears as a big gold oven mitt
On his hand

THANOS whispers to himself “I DON’T GET PAID ENOUGH”,
He starts of by getting himself “I AM THANOS” but
THE CLASS IGNORED HIM
Because of THANOS’S short temperature he YELLED, “I DON’T GET
P
A
I
D

E
N
O
G
H!”
And he snapped his oven mitt “BOOM”
The class and THANOS turned to ashes,

“I’m here for my appointment.”
“Ok go to Dr. A’s room.”
The man walks to Dr. A’s room

“Oh there is a fruit basket.”
The man takes the only apple,
And bite into the apple.

“Ahhhhhhhh!”
“Who’s there?!”
“Down here!”
The man looks at the floor.
“NO YOUR HAND!”
“Oh you’re an apple?”
“YES I’M AN APPLE!!!”
“Huh so an apple a day does keep the doctor away.”

she found herself
in a dark forest
fog
It surrounded her,
A steady breeze going whoosh
she looked around,
but only saw darkness
darkness that seemed to go on forever.

Her growing anxiety
was like a flame of fear
Why was she here?
But to her surprise,
Someone appeared
She knew she couldn’t fight.
But still, she stood there in fear

His glowing amber eyes
Seemed to belong to her father
(and her)
but the Stranger
looked different.
He looked at the girl, and said with a grin
The name’s Jevl,
And I know how to help.

Winter is a snow globe,
isolating you in its icy sphere
and a white blanket of snow.

Spring trapped beneath its ice
wanting to be let free.
Nature and all of its life plea,
̈ Melt, you white cold beast,
so the sun can feast on our colors
and demolish the wrapping of snow.¨

Slushing through the crisp snow,
is the only sound I hear and the sights of majestic white trees and sleighs gliding against the snow.
A smile beams across my face
as I think of all the fun that takes place.
Winter might not be so bad, in this cold chilling bubble.

The cool breeze
The light rain,
Will wash my tears
Right away.

Was at home,
Now i’m not.
I’m in the car
That is pretty hot.

So many memories
In the walls
I don’t want to leave
At all.

Goodbye old,
Hello new.
Have to leave
To move away.
I will always remember
And
Never forget

Goodbye and hello.

In the sky, lays a blanket of clouds.
Moving faster with each passing second…
Wind blows like the strong waves on the ocean.
Wiping the remaining positives out of your life.
Rocks pound from the sky.
And bury you to the head.
Making it seem impossible to live anymore.

Open your eyes.
The sun is back.
You are good as new.
Ready for more.

Life CAN be bad,
But Life IS never bad.
So don’t give up when the Hard Times come.

A snake with legs is a Lizard
If it grows its a Dino
If it sprouts wings its a Dragon

The terror of myths is a Dragon
The scaly pet is a Lizard
The old king is a Dino

Roar!the top of the food chain the Dino
Rushing rapidly round red rotting prey the Dragon
Running like the wind hiding in the woods the Lizard

Lizards are small,Dragons are pure terror,all are reptiles but, king goes to the Dinos.

I love the Country
there is always a Bird Chirping
there is the loud ROAR of an engine from a Godecart,

the only thing moving fast is the Godecarts
the wind howls in the slow rolling Country
The wind calms when peaceful Birds Chirp,

the soothing sound of Birds Chirping
the loud ROARING of the Godecart
all mixed in with the peaceful Country

the Birds Chirp the Godecarts ROAR all in the peaceful Country Road.

The glistening trees
by the shimmering lake,
frozen solid with nowhere to go.
The snowy embrace of Mother Nature
engulfing me and you.

The sunlight glistens
while the snow dances
down
down
it falls.

The icicles drip off the trees,
slowly melting down.
drip
drip
drip it goes
puddling on the ground.

Slowly all the snow melts
underneath the sun.
The flowers bloom,
the fawns leap,
the birds sing their song.
Now spring is here,

And winter
is gone.
