Poem of the Week # 9 : When Old Lovers Turn Into Friends

When Old Lovers Turn Into Friends

I fell in love one day
It was a love like no other

I was left with no words to say

I prayed that I wouldn’t smother

Gently, he held my hand

He embraced me like he couldn’t let go

We would walk slowly across the beach’s sand
Everyday our love would grow and grow

I thought we were reaching a point of high

But there was a painful shock you couldn’t miss

A brunette with freckles snuck right by

And stole what felt like every kiss



My love was great
But it wasn’t for long
I lost my mate
But will no longer sing a sad song


I guess you could call me naive
I believed forever had no end
Until the day I was deceived
I don’t know how my heart will mend


I’m still left with nothing to say
For a while, I couldn’t even comprehend
Now I’ll wait for the day
When old lovers turn into friends

Rain

Rain is so one of the worst things that I do not like. It's always rains when you have something plan to do outside. I like snow a lot better than rain because you can still do things outside when it is snowing. One thing I do not like about rain is that you can be out side doing something and think that it is not going to rain and it starts poring down rain. Then you get all wet and have to go change your clothes. Some people like rain because of what it does for the earth but if we could get away with out rain I would so like that a lot better. It's just a big pain to try to go out and do something when it is raining. Who wants to go out in the rain and work that's no fun. Tell me what you think about rain and how you like it. We may feel the same way about rain you never know.

Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is a holiday where you give thanks to everything you have in your life. (: It's one of my favorite holidays because we get to eat a lot and we get off school for more than a week, that's always good. The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is truly the most exciting thing I look forward to on Thanksgiving. It always gets me ready for the big day ahead of me and it's a truly amazing event that is held in New York each year. Every thanksgiving is held at my house. My aunt and uncle travel 150 miles to celebrate this holiday with us each year. While the boys are out deer hunting, my mom, sister, and I cook the food. We always watch whatever football game that is on and just have a lot of fun. We have a bunch of food at the table each year like turkey, potatoes, apple pie, vanilla pudding, and corn cake. The day after Thanksgiving is Black Friday. Black Friday is an all day event starting at 4 am in the morning or early and people go into stores with HUGE deals to get a lot of their Christmas shopping done for their family. I have never gotten to go in the past with my mom, but now that I have a job and can buy presents I get to go this year and I am super excited! The main reason why I love Thanksgiving is because you just get to cherish everything you have in your life. Everyone should be thankful for whatever they have in their life. Nobody should take for granted the people or things that they have in their life. Give thanks this Thanksgiving by saying thank you to your mom when she cooks the food or thank you to your dad when he is putting up the Christmas lights. A thank you can go a long way, it honestly makes someone’s day. So what are you going to give thanks to this Thanksgiving? What do you think about Thanksgiving? What are some of your family’s traditions? I would love to hear them. Thanks. (:
