Going Home

Heading home is likePlunging into a pool of memoriesThe old photos, the dusty bike,Makes one smile, unwittingly As a child,I bet I was very wildI sat in my crib, laughingParading my toothless grin, flailingChubby arms, spilling food everywhereLike a sprinkler, targets anywhere My first prom is forever framed,In a golden, rosette border, somewhere far awaySparkling…

The Cell Phone

Pitter patter,Don’t look out of the window, childThe world has gone wild.For that isn’t the sound of rain.Those are fingers sprinting on the fast lane.It is not in a stadium.The lane is on the cell phone screen.No victor on the podium,It’s just a bunch of texting teens.I must warn you before I proceed.That child, the…

Winter’s History

When the Snow Queen decides to turn her wristTo take a peek at her watchShe exclaims ‘It’s time’, and gently releaseThe light mist, cascading a slow and chilly freezeThe auburn Earth decked with frothy frostThen, the blooms of snow come waltzing downAll the way downstairs, right from heaven to townLike it’s raining dandelion seedsPure, jolly…

Welcome To My Life

Welcome to my life,The life of an ugly girl.Filled with bitterness and strife,And how you’ll never be valued as a pearl. You are the devil child,With a face of moles, and heart so wild.You are just way too loud,You don’t fit in, so please get out. You aren’t local, stay away from us.Please shut your…

Candy

Candy,The velvet sweetness,Of sugarcane fibre that’s full of richness.Be wary though,Too much candy can hurt you thorough. Candy,The devil’s mallet,The cause of the hole in your wallet.Candies are dangerous,Try at your own risk. Don’t say I never warned youYou were to obstinate to be warnedIf you’re not wary,You’ll be sorry.
