growing
               up
                     my dear
                                   is steps
                                               step
                                                     by step
                                                            ­     you
                                                             ­          grow
                                                            ­                at the end
                                                             ­                         of the steps
                                                           ­                                            is death

What do I feel?
The feeling consumed me.
Is it a feeling?
hate?
or
love?
and
care?
What do I feel?

We went to the beach

Not a figure of speech

There is lots of beech


Pale peach sand

Oh so very grand

Not too bland


It was very hot

The tiny rocks a dot

And people cooked things in a ***


Swim in the sea

Swimming freely

And we talked about… bees?


Today we had fun

Under the sun

But now the day is done.

Upon a roof

I met a beautiful thing

A beautiful sunset


Its beautiful colors bold

Are like gold

It was like it could get rid of mold


The light fading fast

I didn’t want the colors to pass

“Why won’t you stay?” I asked


The light faded, at last

The day had passed

I climbed down onto the ground vast


I went inside

And quietly sighed

The beautiful light had died

In those times of old

I was told

There was a tale of gold



People say

Once a day

You could see Heaven’s ray



In the rain

Dirt and grain

They fought from Heaven’s rein





People bold

Looking for gold

Went to the time of old



All who died

Wept and cried

And in the end, sighed


There was gold

I was told

In those times of old.

I see millions of stars

Lots every night

And with a telescope I can see Mars


But during the day

I only see one star

It’s quite bizarre


But please, don’t panic

In the galaxy there are billions of planets

Too much to put on a canvas


I wonder what what is on those planets

Venus, Neptune, and Mars

Would there be cars?


And there are many more

But it would be such a bore

I need to go to the store



So farewell my friend

You will learn more in the end

About the galaxy

There was a land

Filled with sand

It was grand



Whoever went to see

Got lost at sea

And came back in a heap


But a girl did see

The land at sea

And collapsed on the land with a heap



The girl laid on the sand

Sand in her hand

And said “This land is grand.”

There was a land

Not bland

But very grand


Flowers bloomed from every corner

A beautiful sight

And everywhere you found no mourners


The sun shines fairly bright

The weather was perfect to fly a kite

Everywhere beautiful birds took flight


So beautiful were the plants

But at first you would give them a small glance

Then they’d put you in a trance


Animals chittering all around

Upon their face there wasn’t a frown

Happy, chatting, chittering sound




The land was always peaceful there

And the weather was always fair

With non-violent bears


And there are some perks or two

The sky was always a deep sky blue

With growing bamboo



But that, my friend, is not all

It is never a cold fall

But i do not want to drawl and drawl


So goodbye, farewell

I hear a bell

That says, “It’s time for the wishing well.”

The sun is setting
A beautiful color
That I watch, gazing

Books are my passion

I love to read

It’s also my fashion


You could read a book

About a clever crook

Who got caught by a brook



You could read one that will say

It was a scary doomsday

And the sky was gray



Another about a fairy

To a fae she was married

And they both roamed the prairie



See, look how interesting these are!

Some have jaguars

And blue stars



So read a book, I say

And do the donkeys bray,

Do it today.

You have never felt my pain
It stings me like a bee
But the bee doesn't die


You have never felt my pain
You have never felt my sadness
And I have never felt any joy


You have never felt my pain
I want to jump off a cliff
So that it will end


Please, leave me alone
You are adding to that ball
Of sorrow


You have never felt my pain
That I
Will never be painless.

COVID-19

Is just so mean

Like a tyrant, like a queen



I wish it would go

I would step on its toe

Maybe run it over with a plough



Covid affects everybody

It affects human bodies

And leaves sick bodies



What if we got rid of it?

Would Covid just give up and sit?

If it wouldn’t I’d throw a fit



But COVID-19 wants to stay

And we have to use cleaning spray

Now I want to run away.

She can walk

Between those fantasy worlds

They call the two Salks



Walking back and forth

Nobody noticed

She noted



But she’s unaware

She’s queen of her soul

The lord of her role


A child without love

Grew up

Without a person watching above



She’s beautiful, but sad

She never had a dad

Not too glad



But then she found

A place safe and sound

With true love crowned.

I was just a normal person
Lively, bubbly, just a girl
Until you came into my life


Your hair is the perfect brown
Blue eyes deep like the sea
That would make me blush every time they bore into me


Girls would squeal all around
But I was the only one who didn't make a sound
Thinking about you


And I thought, you were the one
With tanned skin working in the sun
A worker, he was


But then you came up to me
And dropped down on your knees
You said, "Will you marry me?"
