Pave Stone

   Whenever we go to my Gram's house, she likes us to paint pave stones so that she can place them in her garden. On time I didn't get to paint mine, so she asked me to write a poem on it. Here it is... :)

Pave Stone
Sitting, waiting
Dull and gray
Along comes the buyer
Ready to pay

It's prepared to be layed
On the ground so low
But what happens
Isn't so

With a swish and a flick
Gray turns to blue
Dull turns to bright
It's looking pretty and new

It's painted with bunnies,
Flowers and birds
Pink, green and blue
It's printed with words

With creativity
Paints, laughter and fun
This stone makes memories
Bright as the sun



   I totally didn't mean to have that Harry Potter reference in there because I wrote it before I had read those books, but you know :)

Pseudo

I can get pretty random...

Pseudo

There is a word 

That I know

When you say it out loud

It would be soo-doe

It's sound starts with an S

But it's spelled with a P

Sort of like other words

Like Knight and Knee

The word I'm talking about

Is Pseudo

I chose it 'cause it's strange

And when I saw it, I said, "Whoa"

P-S-E-U-D-O

Yeah, that's a word

I'd like everyone to know...

Oh, Raccoon

Sorry I haven't posted in a while... it's been really busy.. :)

Oh, Raccoon
Raccoon, oh, Raccoon
Your eyes are like a spoon
To see that you have a mask
On your eyes is no task

Raccoon, oh, Raccoon
You're as fat as the moon
And your favorite food is trash
Because you don't get it with cash

You're a sneaky little guy
Human's hate for you is high
You're a leader of a gang
If you could talk, you'd have slang

Raccoon, oh, Raccoon
I met you last noon
But I already know
I want you to go! :)

Winter

I'm sooooooo excited!!!!! Soon it will be cold weather time!!!!!!!!!!! I know I mention snow and we probably wont get any, but, hey, I'm dreaming of a white Christmas :)

Winter
Blankets and soup
Turtlenecks and snow
This is the winter
We all love and know

It's almost time
It's coming soon
So pull on some mittens
Long gone is June

Christmas and songs
Ornaments and trees
All around smiles
And laughs come with ease

Jesus' birthday
Family and friends
Tons of good food
I wish it never would end :)

Yay for winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lightning

Here's one I wrote when I was about ten :)

Lightning
Lightning just shattered that tree
Oh, my, oh, me
Look out the window and you will see
Lightning just shattered that tree

Cucumber

Let me just warn you that when I wrote this I was really bored :) have fun reading it! ;)

Cucumber 
If I were a little green cucumber
I think of strange things that would occur
I would live in a fridge, wow, that would be cold
And maybe sometimes me friend would be mold

Maybe I would
Be related to Larry
I could be on Veggietales
No, that would be crazy!

I'm glad I'm not
A cucumber
Because my whole life
Would be a blur

I love my life now
Just how it is
With my dad, mom, and sisters
It's better than show biz :)

George Washington

Media Fast is over!!! :) I'm not sure if this poem is all accurate, but I do know all the ages that I say are true! When I wrote it I googled them ;)

George Washington
When old George Washington
Was a young lad
He cut down an apple tree
That his father had

But not just any tree
It was his father's best
So why couldn't he
Have cut down the rest?

George grew up
To be a fine young man
When he was twenty-seven
Marriage took his hand

George led his ill-trained troops
Across the Delaware
It was back then
When all their wigs had white hair

When he was fifty-seven
He became president
Ever since then
Presidents have come and went.

You're Loved

<3

You're Loved
I just wanna tell you
How much you're loved
By the God
The one above

He loves you
No matter what you do
He loves you
Because you're you

He created you
Whatever you think
He knows what's gonna happen
From having cancer to a blink

No matter where you go
Or what you do
God's right there
Loving you too.

Shadows

:)

Shadows
Shadows are beautiful things
Wonderful things, indeed
To you they might be just a dark spot
But, oh, not to me

To me they are an imitation of things
That God has given us
A lovely replication of things
They are made with no fuss

An outlining image
Of big or small things
People use them for puppets
And joy it does bring

You can make a bunny,
Giraffes, or butterflies
Hold your hands before light
And see what you'll find

A Pet

So, I'm not sure what I thought whiz meant, but you know... whatever :)

A Pet
Oh, come on, Mom
It's just a small pet
This is the animal
I really want to get

Please listen to me
I'll take care of it
I'll walk it everyday
And it will also keep me fit

It's black and white
And kind of small
It sometimes stinks
But don't they all?

I might say yes
Depends what it is
Tell me ,my son,
My little whiz

Well, you see,
It's an animal with funk
Ummm.... it's a.....
..... It's a skunk

Eelifunt

This, Ladies and Gentlemen, is my very first poem. I made this for my Gram when I was 6 and it has hung in her house ever since. :) If you can't read it, it says:

Eelifunt
Elifunt, Elifunt
Do you like grapes?
Elifunt, Elifunt
Eat them for goodness sake.

:) Don't you just love kids?

Saved from Death

So y'all failed in commenting in the last one, but oh well :) I still love y'all.... This is one of my recent poems. In this one I do mention scars on a wrist, but I do not cut myself. Just wanted to make sure y'all knew that...

Saved from Death
Tears fall
I feel the pain
Like I'm restricted
Wrapped in chains

With a boom like thunder
Tears hit the floor
Held tight by my sins
Locked behind a door

Tired and shamed
I'm all alone
To weak to stand
I've been disowned

But somewhere inside
I hear a voice
Saying, It's not over
You have a choice

What choice, I ask
There's no one here
I am, he answers
Forget your peers

Why hurt yourself
I made you that way
I love you more
More than I can say

Look around
I pull down my sleeves
To cover the scars
The bad memories

I'm your daddy
I died for you
I'll come live within you
If you say I do

I feel his arms
Drawing my near
I cry again
But these are different tears

Tears of redemption
Tears of relief
Tears of joy
And not of grief

I'm sorry, I say
For all I've done
You're forgiven
My little one

I rise from the pits
Of death and despair
To live a new life
Because now I care

I care about the people
Living around me
I care about God
His arms surround me

I love them all
Friends or not
Because God loved me first
And I wanna share what I've got

Books

This is my most recent poem I've written...

Books

Quiet time

Time to rest

Lie down

Throw off the stress

Open a book

Begin to read

Engulfed in a story

Of someone's great deed

When reading a book

My imagination soars

I can go anywhere 

The words open new doors

First, I'm with a girl

Fighting for survival

Next I'm with a boy

With Kronos as his rival

Next there's a wizard 

With a scar on his head

We're all fighting enemies

Who fill you with dread

Books are things

I will love forever

Go read a book

Now or whenever...

Just because I want people to comment, you should comment on what you think my favorite books are (I mention them in the poem) and what your favorite books are :)

A Sad Story

Hey, people! Since I'm on a media fast I'm only going to be updating this blog on Monday and Thursday until the beginning of September. :) This poem, true to it's name, is sad...

A Sad Story
Creeping, creeping
Along the forest floor
Thorns are poking
But you don't care any more

Your clothes are torn
Your hair in disarray
Lost and alone
To your dismay

Owls are hooting
Wolves are prowling
You glance around
To see if any are prowling

You bow your head
Say a prayer of need
You hear water trickling
But you pay no heed

You walk a little farther
You hear a sound
You crouch down
Close to the ground

You hear it again
Crack, snap, now it's loud
A rabbit hops across your path
Quiet as a cloud

It's getting dark
You find a place to sleep
Under a tree
You lie down in a heap

You toss and turn
But you get no rest
You think of your family
They were the best

You're now truly cold
You can't suffer anymore
You're numb all over
You can't feel the floor

You close your eyes
Take your last breath
This story is sad
And it ends in death...

Games

The last few ones have been pretty long so here's a short and simple one =)

Games

Running, running

Chasing, chasing

Bean bag toss

And potato sack racing

All of the games 

Are so much fun

Girls and boys of all ages

They're fun for everyone

The Princess

The Princess

Once upon a time

Long, long ago

There was a princess

Waiting for a beau

Stood at the window

Everyday

Waiting, waiting

Waiting her life away

Why, she asked

Does he not some

All this waiting

Makes me numb

She cried herself

To sleep at night

Hoping he'd come

At the next light

One day

While sitting there

She heard a voice

And turned in her chair

Standing behind her

Dressed in White

There was a man

But he was not her knight

The princess spoke

Questioning the man

Who are you, she asked

He answered, I am

He told her of someone

Who thinks of her a lot

Loves her unconditionally

And her freedom her bought

He game his life

Up for you

What, she asked

Is this true

Yes, he said

My words are true

My dear princess

I would't lie to you

This man

Of whom you speak

Must come to me

For I am weak

He did, said the man

I am him

The he told her of his love

And filled her cup to the brim

She asked God into her heart

That very night

Prayed God into her life

Overwhelmed the darkness with light

From then on

She was filled with joy

And eventually she got married 

And had a baby boy... :) 

Live 4 Him

<3

Live 4 Him
So many problems
In the world around me
So much chaos
Does surround me

It's so easy to get lost
In my things
So easy to idolize
The fake joy that it brings

In so short a time
I turn from the Lord
In so short a time
I'm so easily bored

Destruction and turmoil
Strike the land
But with God at my side
Against me none can stand

If I only opened
My eyes to see
Everything God
Could do with me

So now I proclaim
I will turn my back
On the hurt that I brought
And the love that I lacked

I need Jesus' help
I wanna shine with his joy
I'll help bring down the devil
Who steals, kills, and destroys

So I challenge all people
Who hear me today
To join me in battle
Because God's here to stay.


When I wrote this I was so excited that I got to use the line "destruction and turmoil strike the land" because it's so much fun to say and it's very dramatic =)

Roller Coaster Ride

So, I don't even like roller coasters but I wrote this poem anyway.... =) enjoy!

Roller Coaster Ride
Higher, higher,
Higher we go
Everyone's anxious
Because this part's slow

The very next part
Is going to be fast
That part
Is such a blast

When you reach the top
You don't want to look down
Because you're so far
Off the ground

Then it speeds up
Everyone screams
But it's gone so fast
It feels like a dream

The other hills
Are also fun
But the don't surpass
The biggest one

When it's done
You get back in line
To do it again
One more time...

Childhood Games

I really love this one...

Childhood Games

As I was walking down the street

Listening to the birds go tweet

I passed a a home, it was quiet as can be

Until I heard a young boy call out a plea

I walked across the yard

Peeked around the house

Took a few steps more

Quiet as a mouse

I saw the young boy

He was playing in the sand

He stood up and started marching

Like in a big marching band

He didn't see me, he was enjoying his game

He steadied his bow, as he took aim

In this game he was an Indian

Saving his people from the mean, old white men

Next he was a tall, handsome, brave knight

Who saved all the ladies, but not without a fight

This way and that, he swung his sword

A throne to the king he restored

I remember well

These childhood games

I survived everything

Even a jump through flames

As a child 

We are confident

Anything's possible

If we just commit

Even now,

Grown ups and all

Anything's possible

So go, do not stall =)

Night Thoughts

So on this blog I'm going to be posting my poems. It is very exciting. Be excited. =)

This poem is one of my favorite ones I've written and one of my best. Here we go:

Night Thoughts

Lying in bed

Brain wheels are turning

Things you are thinking

Things you are learning

Thoughts are deep

Ponder this question

Stumble on facts

Sudden realization

Philosophical things 

Running through your head

Thinking these thoughts

While lying in bed
