Joy
Is a golden Sun

It is high in the sky
Shining light on every situation

It brings warmth
into people's lives

Without it
Life would be dark and depressing

It brings happiness
Into daily life

At times it seems to go away
But it is always there

If life lacked it
We would not be able to live
Metaphor poem

Dear bed,
Thank you
for always being there for me
Like a dog for his master

I can always count on you
To be there for me
at the end of the long day

Your soft sheets and blankets
Like clouds in the sky
Ready for me when the day is done

Your frame
Sturdy as a skyscraper
Supports me off the ground

Whenever I don't see you
I can't function
With the lack of sleep

I know it must be boring
sitting in my room all day, waiting
But you are always there happy to see me

At the end of the day
I jump onto your mattress
And float away into heaven

Thank you bed
For always being there
Ready to embrace me at any time

Hear the sweet melodies of the birds
The birds
Wings flapping in the air
The birds
Bodies covered in soft feathers
The birds
Sitting on the branches in the trees
The birds
A dot of color dashing across the sky
The birds
Splashing in the puddles
The birds
Poking beaks in the grass in search of food
The birds
The journey north is complete
For it is now spring
Nature poem

The plants are alive
The snow is trickling away
Spring is upon us
