A True Saying

The future belongs to those who believe in the Beauty of their dreams. - Eleanor Roosevelt

Romans 8:31

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

Summer Time

So hot
Until the sun goes down.
More fun and free time on
My hands.
Everyday is a time to
Relax and have a bunch of fun.

The time we have with our family
Is priceless and summer time brings out the best
Moments.
Everyone has fun in the sun.

What It Means to Me


I don't know about you guys, but Summer is so fun. I mean Summer is all about relaxing, spending time with the family, having fun, spending time with friends, and going on vacations. This summer we were suppose to go to the beach but I highly doubt that we will get to go because of that oil spill that no one seems to know how to clean it up. I love Summer because its so fun. Well I hope That you guys will have an awesome summer.

Time Flies


Time flies by so fast,
you cant see it.
Time flies by so quick,
you cant seem to see eye to eye.
One day you were just a baby,
and next thing you know,
your an adult making adult decisions.
We want to hold on to time,
but we realize we cant.
You should make the time last,
while you have it.
Never let it slip away from your finger tips,
unless you want it to go away,
for good.
Time flies by,
and we cant live in the past.
So make the best of what time you do have.

The Mind

My mind wonders
In my head it is thinking "Why?"
Never letting that thought go.
Deciding whether or not to do something fantastic.


Fear

Forever lonely
Everyone has it,
At some point in time.
Realizing the fear inside ones mind

My Destination


My life is crazy, and yes I don't have much time for writing, but I still manage to squeeze it in. I wish I could write more than what I do, but when would I? I love my life I will never regret living it, but I wish there was more time in the day. I know I have a long way to go till I reach my destination, and quite frankly I don't know where or what my destination really is. I plan to reach it one way or another. With the help of my friends I will reach my destination fast!

My Care For You

My care for you is,
so big,
and strong.
My care for you is,
beautiful.
My care for you is,
wonderful,
and full of joy.
My care for you is,
in my heart.
I care for you.
Do you care for me,
too?

Peacefulness

Where is the time?
Where is the peace?
Why is there war?
No one knows.
I wish there was time in the day,
for peacefulness.
I wish the war between,
the two nations would end.
I pray for peacefulness.
One day.
Some day.
Soon.

Falling In Love

Love can't be helped.
Love can't be stopped.
Everyone knows love,
is in the heart.
Love is all around,
and I could fall in love,
with anyone.
And anyone,
could fall in love with me.
Love is in the air.
Love is on every surface.
Love is in you,
and me.

Don't Go Back


Don't go back to your old life,
of sorrow.
Don't go back to your life,
of pain.
Don't go back to your old life,
of misery.
Don't go back to the life,
you use to have.
If you look at the past,
it will come back to haunt you.
If you look toward the future........
It will be.......
BRIGHT!!!!

In My Hands

In my hands I hold you dear,
so close,
so tight.
In my hands I hold the light,
so bright.
In my hands I hold the world,
so beautiful,
so full of life.
How did God create something,
so magnificent.
No one knows.

Christmas Is Here


Christmas is green.
It sounds like bells ringing and children singing.
Taste like chocolate chip cookies and milk.
Smells like a gingerbread man.
Looks like snow on the ground, and a tree high in the air.
Makes me feel so happy.

Hurricane Katrina's Destruction

Destruction is black.
It sounds like buildings being torn down.
Taste bitter and to sour for me.
Smells like dust in the air.
looks like a worn down building.
Makes me feel sad to let something go.

Redder Than Life.


Red is like a soft cloud, a pillow and feels like cotton candy.
Red is the taste of a lollipop.
S'morse and ice cream smell red.
Going on vacations make me feel red.
Red s the sound of music coming from my Ipod, and the rush in the hall of sixth grade.
Red is the ocean, home, and dance studio.
Dancing is red.
Time with my family is also red.
Red is happiness.

My Creator

You are a creation.
Who is my creator?
Is it my mom?
No.
Then who is my creator?
Guess some more.
Am I an alien?
No way!
Just tell me already!
Fine.
Your creator is the Lord,
Jesus Christ.
He created you,
and everything in this whole universe.
He created the day,
the night,
the light,
and the darkness.
He created the animals,
and all the humans in this world.
The Lord is wonderful.
Thank Him for everything he has done.
Tell Him you love him,
and pray to Him.
He is your creator.

The Seeker

I watch you every minute of every day.
Who am I?
Am I your mom,
your dad,
your sister,
or your brother?
No I am The Seeker.
I watch you when you sleep,
eat,
and breath.
I watch you when you are at school.
I always see you.
I am always there,
to help you,
and guide you.
I am your seeker.

Shadow Cell

There is a place,
no one knows about.
It's the Shadow Cell.
The place where,
your shadow will go.
What do I mean?
I mean your shadow will leave.
My shadow will leave.
Why?
If you continue your life of evil,
your shadow will leave.
What is my shadow exactly?
Your shadow is an angel.
Your shadow has no control over you,
but it can help guide you,
and that is it.
Make the right decisions,
from now on,
and your shadow won't leave.
It won't leave to the horrible place,
called the Shadow Cell.

The Looking Glass


Though the looking glass I see,
a girl with long brown hair.
Big, shiny brown eyes,
a big gleaming smile.
Magenta glasses,
and a diamond shaped face.
"Who is this?" I ask.
"This is you. In the future." said the figure in the looking glass.
"Me??????"
"How can that be?"
"You want to see what the future will be like.Well this is it."
I looked really hard.
I saw nothing.
Looked again.
I saw a woman,
with a well paying job,
and a wonderful, spacious, house.
Was the woman me?
Yes, yes it was.

I Wish


I wish for a day,
that would stay for two years.
I wish for a school,
to be a hour long.
I wish for a day,
full of life.
I wish for a day,
full of joy,
laughter,
and love.
I wish for,
an amazing day.

Crazy Life


Dance, baseball, school, and homework.
Can it just stop.
Full speed ahead,
never once looking up.
Where has the time gone?
I don't know.
I wish I could freeze every minute.
Let every minute last a life time.
Let me enjoy every moment I have.
Let me enjoy my childhood.

Dance


Dancer's life
Attitude
New steps to learn everyday.
Caution don't break a leg.
Effort in every movement.

The True Ones


True friends will be with you for everything. They will love you for you. They will be with you when you need them the most. they will listen to you and you will listen to them. You should be there for them. You will love them for them too.

Baseball


Baseball how can I describe it?
All star players all around.
Soxs, Rangers,and Cardinals those are just a few teams.
Early in the morning to late at night.
Boys all around playing the game they love so much.
Around they go "Home run! Woooooohoooooo!!!!!"
Love for the game.
Love to win.

And Yet


Hottest day it has ever been,
and yet there is no water.
Coldest day it has ever been,
and yet no warmth.
Sunniest day it has ever been,
and yet no shade.
Where is the water,
the warmth,
and the shade,
when we need it the most?
Has it all just disappeared?
No.
It will come back when we don't need it.
And yet it will regret its decision.

Friends


Have you ever had that one good friend?
I have three.
These friends know me for me.
they love me and joke with me.
Why can't we all be that friend towards each other?
Why can't there be more people like that?
I wish that could happen.
I wish we all could just get along.
Have a great close friend we could share our secrets with.
We know that they wouldn't tell anyone our secrets.
They love us for us.
They are true friends.
They will stick with us forever!!!!!!!! :-)

Ellis Island


Talk about horrifying! Ellis Island was an event that both made me fearful and excited. It was an experience that I will never forget. To have my dreams come true, no more hurt I will live. I will have my dad back. That is all a girl would want. It was late, at least what my mom would say, but I was wide awake. I explored the lower class section on the boat because that is all my family could afford. We've been traveling for months and I'm still not use to being so filthy. Everyone looked at me like I was some kind of pitiful freak. Well basically that's because I am. I began to smell the fresh air. I was very sick but I still caught a small whiff of land and freedom in the big USA! It was worth the whole journey. When I saw my dad waving to me from a distance. Seventeen years without a father can get you pretty emotional on such an emotional day.Wow, such a long time! It was a hard rain, and I was staining my dad's nice suit and tie with my tears. The tears made nice clean streaks down my face, so it made me look cleaner than I really was. As long as we are together forever I am perfectly fine!

My friend Valerie F. helped me out with this so thank you val you are the best! :-)

The Person


I wish you all could see the real me,
as I walk up to you,
you ignored me.
Who am I?
I am me.
The person you ignored,
the person who sits and is silent.
The person who is loyal and kind.
The one who will be there for you always.
Will you be there for me?
I think not.
You will never see the real me.
You will never know me,
see me,
love me for me.
I wish you could see the real me.

That Day

The rain is pouring,
you hear "Thump, thump, thump,"
on your umbrella.
It stops.
You put your umbrella away,
and walk out side again.
What do you see?
Sunlight,
Flowers,
A rainbow.
No.
You see,
A pitch black sky,
Nothing but a door.
You open the door,
and walk in.
You hear something.
What is it?
A music box you may think.
But no,
it's a girl cry out and saying,
"You may never go back!"
What does she mean?
She means you may never go back!
To what?
Your old friends, your old family, your old life.
Look to the future and you will understand.
