One Blank Page

In a small town in Scotland they sell books with one blank page.
I sometimes wonder about these books, whether they are young or old of age.
I think it is quite funny, to turn the page and see
A plain, white, blank one, where something should really be.
No fairies, dragons, unicorns, glitter
Just a white page, as blank and white as winter
This is a situation that is quite hard to gage
Since in a small town in Scotland, they sell books with one blank page.

An American

Feeling fortunate, for America is free
I’m a brave American
America is like a squirrel, it goes in leaps and bounds
I’m a joyful American
America is an equal country
I’m a confident American
Everyone can live in America
But I’m a unique American
America is a place that is always changing
I am a true American

Snowfall

The first snowfall arrives like a timid deer
It covers the once bright green grass with a light, white powder
Then frosts the windows of the houses
It moves gently, quietly, softly, and silently
But as the cloud parts, and the snow ceases to fall
Over the small town
It leaves the beginning of winter to come.

The Broken Window

No matter what I do, I do nothing but think

of who and what I am. Not on the outside

but the inside,not only am I a girl I am

becoming a women in my own way.Not

from the looks of becoming women from

the outside.But the responsible women I am

becoming on the inside, I have become

more caring, responsible, and more

loving.So whatever you see from the

outside, is never going to be like what you

can see in someone from the inside. It's

more than just a person, it's you so be

yourself and show what's inside, is more

than looks of any kind.

Max

I have a dog

His name is "Max."

I will now share

A few facts.

He is three

He likes to see

Lots of squirrels

In the tree.

His tail is curly

And his belly is pearly.

He likes to dash

While looking like a flash.

He tends to run away

When forgetting to "stay."

Though he knows it's a loss

When his bone gets tossed.

When he does tricks

His favorite treats he gets.

He's so handsome

He could get all the chicks.

I tell him all my secrets

When I need a friend

A sympathetic ear

He will always lend.

The Sun, Good Rain, The Nasty Plant in a Pot

Sun
Big red
Burning heating nonliving
Getting sunburn is not fun
Star

Good rain
Some like the rain like
Me its fun to play in and
Helps me go to sleep

The nasty plant in a pot
We had a plant in a pot
Tied in a knot
That started to rot
Because it was covered in snot
That had spots
And got shot.

"All my Horses"

Ransom,Casper,Sue
Foxy and Huckleberry to
Running through the back lawn
Uh Oh the race is on
hoof beats rhythmically pound
echoing off the ground
the wind in their hair
like flags in the breezy air
it will be hard to call
to see who will win or fall.
