Two poems
These are two of my youngest daughter's poems. She's pretty talented for a 9th grader, if I do say so myself. And I guess I just did.
| When I Dream When I dream, I can be anything, A sailor, a singer, a sailor that sings. I can sail away on my very own yacht, And eat the fish, that myself has caught. I can cliff jump, and raft, and even sky dive, I can waltz, and tango, and do the hand jive. I can dream myself an ocean so blue, And dream myself a killer breaststroke too. If I can dream, the world could be mine. I can shake and shimmy, sparkle and shine. Maybe tonight when I close my eyes, I can be a giant, of enormous size! Because when I dream, I'm the queen, with a king. And I know once I wake, I can be anything. | Summer Swoosh, swoosh, Goes my sundress in the wind, My face morphs into a blissful grin. I bend over and pick up a tulip with ease, My heart's as light as the summer breeze. I didn't know I could feel this way, I feel like I've fallen in love with today. I smile as the sun gives me a kiss, As I softly whisper, "I love this." I love this life, I love this feeling, I love this summer, my mind is reeling. And as I burst with happiness, And I don't know why, I tilt my head back, And laugh at the sky. |
