Diamond

My mother is a diamond

She is the jewel that keeps our family together and close as one

She is the glimmer that stays clean and has unlimited value

She’s the most precious crystal that is desired by many

She is the sparkle that constantly shines

My mother is a diamond.

My Mother is an Angel

Flying high above the clouds,

Halo on her head.

Her Halo is her shiny gold crown where she stores her amazing knowledge.

Her snow white wings help her to watch over her family from the air.

Her moonlight silver dress is her protection and armor.

Her golden bow is to defend her family and to ward off evil. 

She is the best mom anyone could ever dream of!

Spring

Ruby red tulips in the harsh wind.

Sweet fragrances coming from the flower bud.

Soft velvet flower petals blooming out of the tiny flower.

Spring is in the air.

ICE

Strong, silent, white, and amazingly cold.

Ice is so pure, ice is so bold.

The Courtyard

Swaying tulips dancing in the breeze

On going silence triumphant and still

Blistering wind howling at the world

Dancing grass beneath my skin

Sunlight streaming down from above

Blissfulness is extravagant

Toy Army Men

Light, dark, darker

Dark, darker, standing

Darker, standing, kneeling

Standing, kneeling, aiming

Kneeling, aiming, firing

Firing, falling, yelling,

Falling, yelling, rushing

Yelling, rushing, medic man

Rushing, medic man, better

Medic man, better, fighting

Better, fighting, tank

Fighting, tank, tan

Tank, tan, down

Tan, down, win

Down, win, happy

Win, happy, green

Happy, green, army

Green, army, men

Army, men, just

Men, just, a

Just, a, dream.

Sleepovers

Board games and sleeping bags spread out on the floor

Cupcakes being baked fresh in the oven for dessert

Squeals and laughter of friends sharing secrets

A big, soft, fluffy blanket covers my friends and me

Excitement lingering in the air

It will be an exciting and memorable night

Jones Farm

There were so many pumpkins at Jones Farm. I went with Mom. I saw pink pigs. I saw a pig face on a pumpkin. I put gourds and pumpkins in a brown wheel barrel.

I went back to Jones Farm with Dad, Caroline and Henry. I saw pink pigs. I went through a corn maze. I got little and big pumpkins. I will carve the pumpkins I picked. Going to Jones is exciting!

One Inch Tall

If you were only one inch tall,

a paper house would look like a mansion to you,

a person would be a giant,

a half of a pizza would last you a month,

and a spider’s jump would knock you over

If you were only one inch tall.

MY FAMILY

I am very kind and sweet to all whom I meet,

like the whipped cream on a sundae. 

My brother Connor is a doctor, VERY smart and sweet. 

He is like the hot fudge who makes everyone feel good.

My sister is still in college, she is going to be a vet. 

She is like the fruit topping that keeps every one healthy.

My dad is always busy, but he stays home and plays with me.

He is like the ice cream that is the most fun.

My mom is mostly busy, but she plays with me too. 

She is like the chocolate that is so sweet.

My uncle helps me with my homework when my mom is busy.

He is like the bowl that holds everything together.

My other sister always reads and is very smart.

She is the healthy treat that makes us happy.

My other brother Alan is barely home.

He is like the ice cream that is all gone, and missed very much.

Together we are one big ice cream sundae.
