Sweet melodies haunt my soul
If I could not sing
Nor hum
Or tap to the rhythm
I would have gone mad long ago
For my heart is nourished by music
My mind kept in the wonders of its making
My throat itching in anticipation
Awaiting the moment I can burst forth
The day's feelings and free myself
Music is my lifeline
And without it,
Life wouldn't be worth living

So many fallen stars
In the sky of family
So many faces
I never got to meet
Their hydrogen burned out
Before I was born

Yet I know that they are not gone
Nor fallen
Quite the opposite
They have risen beyond
Beyond nebulas & galaxies
Into Paradise
Where pain has been elimnated And
love lives forever in the sights of the Lord
To the generations before me and the recently lost. I love y'all.

You are a contradiction
You teach poetry and the art of English
You are such a good teacher
You scare the heck out of most people
You look so menacing
You talk so odd
You have so many rumors about how cruel you are
I don't think you're cruel
Just strict
At my age, that's what we need
But you are a good person
Kind to those who are the same to you
I think you are one of my favorite teachers ever
Thank you, Ms. Patterson
This doesn't really rhyme nor is it rhythmic, but this is how I feel about a teacher of mine right now. She probably wouldn't approve of this, but the likeliness that she will read this is very small.

Pipers pipe
Pippa pips
The royal servants
Skip, skip, skip!
The whole world
Shouts with glee
As this baby is born to thee.
Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge
His Royal Highness
They all say
But he is not more than
Two days!
Child of the world
He is
And he will be till his parish date
But first he must find a mate
And create another kid
To be loved by all of Earth
Oh, what a birth!
But, until then,
We will watch him grow into a young man
And bloom into an amazing king
Who shall spread his bright beam
Across the world's stage
In honor of Prince William and his lovely wife Kate, and the newest royal, His Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge (long title!). Let God bless this new family and I hope all goes well.

Life is a contradiction.

How is it that you can be
Lost,
But remain in the same place?
Broken.
But still contain all your parts,
The manufacturer gave you?
Die,
And yet still live to see the next sunrise?
How can these actions be so true?

Life is a contradiction.

Physically,
I'm not much.
Green eyes,
Roundish body.
Not much.

Mentally, however,
I am all.
Intelligent
Quick
Kind
Loving
I am beautiful.

Are you?
Don't sell yourself short and always be you. Have a nice day!

Sleek little body
Fur of black
She is my Baby
Hunting fabric mice is her game
Made from my hand to her heart
She fell through the wall
But she made it through all
Baby
She is my little cat.
