A Fall Poem
An orange moon rises this hallows eve,
The town’s school teacher, the stories she’ll weave,
Stories so dark the children can’t believe,
They think of the treats they will soon receive,
The moon and the trees cast ghostly shadows,
The moans from the graveyard a place so hallowed,
The creaks and the groans coming from the gallows,
The looming figures are things foreshadowed,
The leaves twirl and crinkle under their feet,
The noises make the children white as a sheet,
Sounds of screaming make the children retreat,
The children run home their parents...

My car
My car is grey,
My car is grand,
The key fits just right in your hand,
The dash is oak,
The wheel is too,
and Its boot lining is blue,
The windows are dark,
The leather is light,
The steering and brakes are tight,
The sunroof is big,
The gear shifter is small,
This car is great even if you’re tall,
The key is a cylinder,
The alarm is loud,
To own this car makes me so very proud,
It may be British,
It may be small,
But it thrives in the urban sprawl,
It was built for speed,
It was built...

A summers Sonnet
The sun rises high upon this summer day,
The sky fills with clouds of contentments gray,
The air hangs thick with the sounds of blue jays,
The breeze is mellow and fights the days fray,
The grasses of the meadow lightly sway,
The hours of the day just love to slip away,
Pa sits on the porch whittlin’ away,
Ma’s a-cookin while a-sippin cabernet,
lil’ sister’s a comin’ with the tea tray,
lil’ brother’s a playin’ away with croquet,
Mammie’s a-bakin’ a good cheese souffle,
“A good summers day” my Papa would say,
The cats slink down the hot tarmac...

Did I mention?
Soft blonde hair,
Cool fall air,
lean build,
no guilt,
soft kiss,
near miss,
cozy hug,
like a drug,
warm hand,
red land,
It brings so much joy,
Did I mention he's a boy?

Four Words
Four words,
Four simple words,
Four words I hope for you to say,
To prove to me how you feel,
Prove to me you you are true and real,
Those four words,
Those eleven letters,
They stand so true,
Those four words,
Four simple words,
I love you too.

My only love
I kissed a boy,
He’s my toy,
He’s my one and only,
I’ll never be lonely,
He’s perfect and real,
He’s my only deal,
His perfect dark brown hair,
For he’s my only care,
His a perfect chiseled body,
He lives his life as a hotte,
I could swim in his deep brown eyes,
His lips let loose no lies,
His heart is huge and filled with love,
He’s as peaceful as a dove,
He has my love this world over,
But when he changed his mind,
I was left loveless, and blind to other’s feelings.

Love knows no gender Act II
I will always love you,
Even if you leave you leave my side,
I will always cover your hide,
Even though you say you won’t,
I think its just that you don’t,
Care for me that is, Your company I do miss,
From your blonde hair,
To your cute feet,
With a smile I will always greet,
Even if you say “move on”,
I will never ever comply,
For I love you sexy guy,
I’m afraid its goodbye for now,
Now i take my temporary bow.

Fool
That August night,
Hopes as high as a kite,
Took my heart,
Took my soul,
My stomach mid roll,
I think I may,
I think I might,
Vomit on this cloudy night,
You took,
You stole,
Heart of coal,
Big or small,
You took them all,
You think your cool,
I feel like a total fool.

Dust to Dust
ash to ash,
dust to dust,
my heart left out in the rain to rust,
My hopes and dreams have gone away,
never to be seen on another day,
In this field i shall lay,
Till my end,
My final day,
You left me broken,
you left me shattered,
with my feelings truly tattered,
You don't know how I feel,
But in this poem i do reveal,
You'll never know just how I feel,
To this day you still don't know,
how it feels to watch you go...

Basket Case
You think I am spastic,
Well I think that's fantastic,
You call me insane,
I call you mundane,
You say I'm unstable,
Isn't it fun to label?
You tell me to be someone I'm not,
I'm happy with what I got,
You just like to pick a fight,
You think your always right,
You say you'll spray me with mace,
Calling me a basket case,
You call me a disgrace,
Look at your artificial face,
You laugh cause he has a twitch,
Oh my word your such a bitch!

Love knows no gender
Listen to the music's beat,
Feel the summers comforting heat,
Hear the sound of his soft bass,
Look at his handsome face,
Feel the softness on his hair,
Smell the fresh summer air,
Feel his loving rough skin,
Meet all of his loving kin,
Go on a couple dates,
Man he really is great,
Take a trip to the sea,
My word,
He just proposed to me,
I know it seems cliche and sappy,
But its amazing to feel truly happy,
To not have a single sad day,
To never see skies of gray,
To see the blue of...

Surprise Attack
Knife, Knife, in my back
Victim of a surprise attack,
Blood, Blood, everywhere,
Stains your soft blonde hair,
Sins, Sins, you have done,
You think you have won,
Death, Death, that's my fate,
Ship my body in a bloody crate,
Burn, Burn, all the proof,
Smoke from the chimney on the roof,
Drink, Drink, your guilt away,
The sun sets on this dark fateful day
