The sun comes up another day.Sending her rays across the open fields, casting shadows with the trees, making puppets with their branches.The moon goes down, sinking in to soft sleep once again.The stars follow him, not twinkling across the black sheet of night.Like fireworks' sparks they fizzle out.The sun is a star too though.She does … Continue reading Stars Like Fireworks

Christmas Lights & Soda Cans
a short story written in poetic form about youth and loss.
Angel’s Tears
The sky fills with clouds a warm gray, the Sun tucks away, blanketed behind His fluffy comforter.And cold droplets fall down like angels' tears, rejoicing for renewed life.Grass blades drown out, soaking up each tear deep within their roots.

Neverending Sea of Color
Stars twinkle like gems in a neverending sea of colors. Each star is different in shape and size, some further from this earthly plane; while others feel as if you could reach out and graze their light. But all exist in the neverending sea of color.

The World is no More Than the Reality We Choose for it to Be
"In a world of Talkers be a Thinker." The reason I read is because I can insert myself into a world completely different from my own. Abstract and interesting. Where things make sense and everything ultimately has a solution. In the real world things take time. In books they can be solved in a matter … Continue reading The World is no More Than the Reality We Choose for it to Be
Me vs. the World
Growing up, I've always been told to hold compassion for others, and be there for them in their time of need. But, on the other hand, I'm also consistently told to not let others walk all over me. It's a conflicting thing because in this world when you show compassion you're automatically seen as someone … Continue reading Me vs. the World
