Support our troops

Ok I just made a card for some soldier I don't know over seas amd it made my day. It was a very humbling experience because I realize that while I will be at home with my family this Christmas some people won't. I guess it showed me what I really do have to be grateful for. Check it out.http://www.letssaythanks.com/Home1280.html

The Lion and the Me

Though I may seem small like a a flower petal,
I assure you my fragrance is strong.
I can hold my own ground.
And I know just where I belong.

You may be a lion
But you're the one with the thorn in your shoe.
And with out people like me,
without the mouse the lion doesn't know what to do.

So call me small call me weak.
But who really needs who?
I can fix my own problems
You're the one who doesn't know what to do.

So be a lion and roar,
but the one thing you should always know,
is to remember me the mouse
who pulled that thorn out of your toe.

Conceit poetry

So this type of poetry uses metaphors and similes to descibe the subject of the poem. That is pretty self explanitory. I'll see if I can post one tomorrow :)

A Prideful Man's Daughter

A prideful man was here today.

He left his footprints in concrete.

Although he thought he was making his own way ,

he was also making a way for me.

The places he went were filled with sadness

and the stench of an angry heart was always around.

His rage filled life allowed other unhapy men to feed off of this.

The poor man assumed what was lost could never again be found.

Now that man is sitting in his only chair.

He waits in pain for the new day to come.

He lives recklessly and with out a care,

just chasing an empty life with each new rising sun.

I am this pitiful man's daughter you see,

so everything he does and every mistake he makes will effect me.

Picture Day

So I haven't had much along the lines of photography on my blog but today I found a photographer whose pictures I really like. The pictures he takes seem to be of his daughters but he edits them in some pretty crazy ways. Check out the link below to see them and read a little bit about the artist.

Songs

I write a little song.
It sounds like little singing birds.
You could sing along.
You don't have to get it right as long as you are heard.

A voice is like an ocean.
It has so many faces.
It can be calm and suddenly set in an angry motion.
One voice can fill up a million spaces.

The only thing worse then an angry voice is silence.
It can change our whole lives.
It can change peace into violence.
It can make lives struggle where they would once thrive.

So please sing this song loudly.
If you don't do it for you, do it for me.

Sonnet

Ok so pretty much I cant explain a sonnet to you other then the rhyme scheme. So I'll give you a link to a deffinition on wikipedia if you really want to know. But I'm pretty sure I can write them ok.
