Resource

When I was small
I always thought trees were a  quick renewable resource
Always there and growing quickly
I never knew
That trees are living
That millions of trees are cut down every year
I never thought about trees as anything but wood
Now I know
That trees arent just things growing out of the ground
Trees are beatiful and living
They shouldn't be cut down and chopped
Trees are living things that eat and drink and move like us
Trees even put oxygen in the air and filter it through their leaves
We need more trees to make the air cleaner
We should stop cutting down so many trees
And replant them if we do

  • Kept It All

    I keep everything i have left of you

    I still look at our pictures together

    We looked so happy

    I still have your sweatshirt

    It still smells like you

    I still have the stuffed animals

    I found myself in the things I love

    In the music I listen to

    In the books I read

    In the posters on my walls 

    I found myself 

    In my favorite drink

    In going to the beach

    In writing poetry

    If you had one wish what would you wish for?

    Blowing out candles on a cake,

    What did you wish for?

    Blowing the seeds off a dandelion,

    What did you wish for?

    I wish
