Oh my favorite tree
The gnarled branches hugging me tight
Pulling me in
Giving me happy and sad memories
Ones with the loved ones
Some with the saddened poor
Others with WAR as the big headline
The almost olive yet leathery leaves sweeping my face
Rubbing
Smoothing
Calming thy soul
Half the roots had been sucked up by the wind
Serving as thy seat to sit in
The tree was part of my soul
Part of me
It was so affectionate
Gentle
And kind
To me it was new
Fresh
To others it was
Old
Like a wilting flower
Dieing
Crying
Its branches were sturdy
Strong
Stalwart
Never giving in
The trunk was like a boulder
Not moving when needed
It was something to lean on when hurt
I could give the tree my secrets
To keep
Forever
Never letting me be solivagant
The tree was like a sister
When you were lonely
It accompanied you
Helping
Curing my wounds
Sealing them shut
A hollow part of the truck
A fine shelter
When it rained
shielded me
The tree prevented me
From falling
It encouraged me
Helped me
Tethered me
To be ambitious
Amiable
Compassionate
It was so heuristic
The tree,
Dotted with bright pink flowers in the spring,
Branches half bare in the winter,
Shady in the summer,
Cool in the fall,
Was half of my heart
That was how much space needed
to have a friend that was always there
Whenever you wanted
Forever
An everlasting love
And hope
For eternity
With the tree
The world was brighter
More vivid
More hopeful
With the tree,
Dreams weren’t just dreams
They were reality
A living dream
With the tree I was insouciant
The tree so free
With me
It was
So
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

I love December
With winter breaks’ cozy nights
And bright Christmas lights

Like a butterfly’s wings,
my eyes flutter,
then open

I was ripped
from my subconscious fantasy
by none other
than the BEEEEP of my alarm

In a daze,
I get ready
I eat something I don’t taste,
for it is far too early
for my taste buds to be awake

I step outside
then check to make sure
my eyes aren’t closed
They aren’t,
but I thought they were
because of the
pitch
black
darkness

I savor
the walk to the bus stop
The whole world is asleep
except for me
it seems

I get there
just in time
and board

I lower my window
and my hair
dances in time to the wind
How can it be so awake
so early in the morning?

I listen to music
as we roll along
A playlist of life
the perfect mix of calm
and not

I see waterfall of stars,
cars with their headlights,
driving down the highway,
and I imagine the stories
of those inside

Yes, others board our bus,
but I am still alone
Alone, but not lonely
in my own little bubble
of serenity

Eventually,
the star
of the show,
the sun,
arrives

A little tired,
but still smiling
bright
and happy
and beautiful
as always

Climbing
up, up, up,
illuminating
the world

When the journey is over,
we arrive at or destination,
school,
and I am more awake
than I was

I am content,
for I feel I have experienced
a secret
that no one else has

I am ready to face the day

So hot, make me sweat
The hot sun in my face make me wet
Looking at the kids playing makes me jumpy in some kind of way
But oh my isn’t it time to start the day
Eating bread with avocado,
Taste like eating some Tomato
Ahh how I wish it snow
But look nothing but dust that glows

Mom cooking in the kitchen can be sense across my neighborhood,
Looking around its a pity that no one is outside
My bones boiling in the inside
by just walking a few meter in the hood
but my brain tell me that I’ve been for a year in the desert
Texas sun smiling at me,
but instead I think it’s laughing at me

Going back home is even the hardest job
Because I walk like a slob
Opening the door i can feel the air conditioning welcoming me
Entering home I came across a tiny bity bee
I hate to say this little guy but the conditioner is mine only

I am drawn to the eyes of the all Mighty
Those pale blue exuberant eyes, getting lost
In every stroke I take in the deep vast ocean they create
Every notion ever felt, ever taken action on, crashes down before me
The walls and barriers that have been built, fall down around me
They sink in the waves of his gaze

The bright white light of his palace, so inviting and homely,
Beauty, grace, and youth overcome me, all things new are
There to reassure, this is the place I want to be.

One step, and the marble cracks, creating a fissure in
The hope I always saw to be there, another step
And I begin to fall, like a comet crashing down to earth.
Past the crust and deep down through the layers, into the hellfire.

I am greeted by shackles binding me to the ground,
Immense heat radiating off of my body, no escape.
No way to flee the constant torture of the claws,
Dragging me deeper into the heat of the flames.

Happy was I.
Joyful, loving, heart
Shattered is it now.
You with
anger and rage
Fills up this saddened heart
broken am I.

I am broken.
Heart saddened this up fills
Rage and anger.
With you,
Now it is shattered.
Heart loving, joyful.
I was happy

Have you ever felt so great, you could fly?
Have you ever felt so sad, you could die?
But be brave, be bold like a king on his throne
You could start a new day, don’t be scared to be okay
Ba bum ba bum ba bum
Your heart beats like a drum
Like a child opening its eyes for the first time
You see and hear the light
King David praying in the night
Ba bum ba bum ba bum
The sword shocked sin
No more hate
The mountains thundered their chorus
They boomed their great truth
A million beats in one
Ba bum Ba bum Ba bum
The light from this Sun is weighty
Even the richest people can’t buy this
Sweat and tears won’t earn it
It’s a gift
It’s a wonder at your fingertips.

The street lights in the night
Shine like a star
The stars are sailing in the
Dark, dark Ocean
In middle of the Ocean
There is a floating small boat

In the boat
There is someone
That no one hate
But no one like
So he keep hide in the boat

The boat sail
Sail by the waves
Move towards to the bright star
Which it will never reach
The closer to her
The more he will hide in to shadow

Some dinosaurs can make a terrifying roar. Some others can fly and soar.
But this dino, oh he can run.
Yes, this dino, he’s number one.
This my friends is Flashasaurus Rex.
This T-Rex really likes to flex.
Hey, I know, let’s give him a nickname.
This nickname must not sound lame.
I know, let’s call him Flashy and start the game.
It’s time for the monthly dinosaur race.
Hey Flashy, remember to tie your shoelace.
Yes, it’s finally time to run.
And now I can finally have some fun.
Yes, the race finally starts.
When I get home, I’ll eat some meat flavored poptarts.
Wait, hold up. I’ve lost count of how many people I’ve passed.
Oh no wonder, I’ve already won cause I guess I was just too fast.
Hey Flashy, may I test your skill?
How many times can you run around that large hill?
Ok, how much time will you give me?
Hmmm, thirty seconds then we will see.
Phoom, ahh a tornado, you’re going too faaast!
Why am I floating around and will I last?
Frrrr, it’s so cold in this place.
Oh my gosh, is this space?!
Bloop, Flashy boy you ran so fast you set the earth off it’s course.
I looked into the sky and now I just feel remorse.
Now a huge asteroid is headed or way!
I just wish I wouldn’t die and I’d be here to stay.
It’s all your fault and now we’re all gonna die. Those Pterodactyls are so lucky, they can fly.
Phoom.
Zoom.
I never knew I could run around half the earth in the count of five.
Well, that stinks that everyone is dead, but at least I’m alive!
