Poems for Awesome: Evidence

Extra proof
Video-like that
Improves,
Defines,
Exposes.
No doubt it brings
Critical knowledge and
Expands potential.

Poems for Awesome: silver veneer

When the rain comes down
It paints the whole town
With a silver veneere
That's translucent and sheer
My blood turns cold
I feel slow and old
I seek a good book
Grab a blanket and look
For a warm, cozy spot
With hot cocoa (a lot)
And I sip and I read
There's not much I need
But if I don't watch me
I might become moldy
The green sneaky substance
Could grow on me in abundance
And i could be stuck
With my book
In a nook
To the spot
Where I sat
Watching rain like a cat
As it painted the town
While it fell softly down.

Poems for Awesome: intuition

I am aware of the world
Nature, people, environment
Trust in my gut
Understand what's out there by
Investigating my surroundings
Time brings experience
Interest grows
Open doors beckon
No fear, be confident

Movies for Awesome

For those of you who didn't know: I am a huge Hayao Miyazaki fan! His movies are always delightful and beautiful and imaginative. And weird in a good way. Last night I watched The Cat Returns and it was fantastic! Miyazaki always gets fun people to do the english voice overs. In this show Anne Hathaway does the voice of Haru and Cary Elwes does the voice of the Baron. The movie has a positive message about believing in yourself. By the end I totally had a crush on the Baron (even though he's a cat).

Poems for Awesome

To what end to people pass me?
Do they get there faster? No!
It's just more stop and go.
I'm actually not that slow.
There's not that much to show
When cars right past me blow.
Stupid cars!

Poems for Awesome

I miss my sister
We always laugh too loudly
We're our biggest fans!

Poems for Awesome

I dreamt
I was a fluffy white cloud
High above a field like an unreachable puff of fluff
Scudding across the piercingly blue sky
Distantly.
