Stay with me, little memory
Submitted by emmthegreatscs on Sat, 03/31/2012 - 4:42pmSome memories
Can be fragile
Others very slim
Or skimpy,
Some exceedingly mini
Everyone in the world-
Must wish that their memories
Were fatter,
Plumper,
A bit more meaty.
If only they had fed
Their memory more lunch that day
It might had remembered more
If only they had given up their
Whole leg of chicken
During dinner that day
It might have remembered more
Their memories might not have slipped
Through the prison bars
Of their brain-
For if those memories had been larger,
They would have gotten their porky selves
Stuck-
Where that person wanted them-
In their memory forever
Sloshing in Hurricane Puddles
Submitted by emmthegreatscs on Wed, 08/31/2011 - 7:59pmHurricane Irene-
The perfect opportunity
To splash in more puddles
Than I’ve ever
Splashed in before
My brother and I,
We roamed the streets Read more »
Brown Eyes of A Brother
Submitted by emmthegreatscs on Tue, 05/03/2011 - 8:15pmWhat can I do
With You
Your big brown eyes
being lovable, kind
Leaving me feeling
Like I can do nothing
To thank you
And the next day
Those same brown eyes
As large as a baby calve's
Are glaring
At
Me
I Love Vermont
Submitted by emmthegreatscs on Mon, 04/04/2011 - 8:13pmVermont is a little state in northeastern U.S.A. I am currently growing up there so I would know. It truly is an incredible place to grow up in, even though most people would say that about their own hometown. So what's the difference? Read more »
Faster
Submitted by emmthegreatscs on Tue, 03/29/2011 - 5:07pmRacing, I start
After the horn blows
Getting,
Faster
and faster
And yes,
Even faster
I am rushing past the wind
Overpassing even the greatest
The race is over
I indeed
Have won
Off to Whoville and the Jungle
Submitted by emmthegreatscs on Thu, 03/24/2011 - 7:39pmSometimes I feel like taking off and flying to the Jungle of Nool. I want to meet the Grinch whose heart is "3 sizes too small. I want to say to Horton "You're awesome!" And most of all I want to tell Gertrude Mcfuzz that I admire her very greatly. It's okay if birds only have one feather. Read more »
Mossy Window
Submitted by emmthegreatscs on Mon, 03/14/2011 - 5:29pmThrough the window...
It's a whole different world in there
Through the mossy window
I can see a little- but not enough
To satisfy my curiosity
The little mushroom table is soaking up the sun-
streaming through the window
I can spot acorn cups as well
The fireplace has ashes, and a kettle-
with vegetable stew as a dwindling smell
If I poke my head almost too far,
I can see a green coat hanging up
My eyes surpass the limit, and let up Read more »
Sunny Calm
Submitted by emmthegreatscs on Mon, 01/10/2011 - 8:46pmThe soft wind is blowing through the willows
It's spirit whistling a merry tune
Sun shines brightly, but not too bright
Casting a glow of mellowness
It all feels just so right
The calm and peace brings me more than money can
it brings me happiness
