**one of my favorite poems:

No Man Is An Island

by John Donne

No man is an island entire of itself; every man
is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;
if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe
is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as
well as a manor of thy friends or of thine
own were; any man's death diminishes me,
because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom
the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

The gravel in my driveway met the paved road to your heart.

Smile

We met in the sky
I didn't know he could fly
We stroll hand in hand
throughout the heavens

His smile was some-
kind of BIG wonderful, fun
Am I Wendy or Lois Lane?
Careless, I enjoy the view

The sun reflecting
His smile intercepting
any negativity, any ominous feeling
He kills any nervousness and jitters

With the setting of the sun
I never want to let go of our fun-
filled day in the sky
Can I keep him with me always?

But then he let go of my hand
and off into the sunset he ran
With that I knew I must face
the murky billows alone

Ahead the thickness, dark as night
I want to follow his smile into the light
I bide my time knowing later we’ll get to play
within our own limitless sunset

I awaken and smile

Details

Do you want the truth or do you want me to lie to you?

The truth is...

Chocolate milk comes from brown cows.
And YES you can use cheese curls for eyebrows.

In your mind nothing is as it should look
Because THIS is imagination heaven.
It doesnt matter if your infinity x seven.

The truth is in the details, my dear.
The details are everywhere.

Slay

On top of the hill, I slayed the dragon.
I stabbed him with my swords.
But instead of blood and goo and guts,
out came my very own words.

"EXCELSIOR ESTA INSIDIOUS!
Alas I am free!"
My words lept onto my lips
and dwelled inside of me.

Evanescence
Dilly dally all day by the side of the road.
Livid in life if it must be told.
Create the creative see wonders unfold.
March among marionettes never grow old.

On A Clear Day

On a clear day you can see everything
and it was a clear sunny day

So many smiles went up that day

(poem in progress)

My prayers go out to the victims and their families of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. I remember it being such a sunny beautiful day that day when I got to work. A friend of mine said a cousin called her and told her a plane had crashed into the WTC building. I told her, "That's impossible because you're not even suppose to fly over the towers." But it was true. And we watched everything on our tv's at work. Everything, even the second plane crashing into the second tower. It was too real. It was like we were watching a movie. It brought my mind back to 1995, when I sat at home with a new baby on maternity leave and watched coverage of a bombing that had just happened at the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Ironically, I lived approximately 120-130 miles from the Okla City bombing on April 19th and on Sept 11, 2001, I lived approximately 145 miles from WTC attacks. What a small vivid world we live in.

A lot of us have had trouble in our past. Don't let your past be your picture frame. Our past shouldn't define us, it should inspire us.

I just read a story about Rebecca Black being bullied because of her stupid song Friday. Her mother apparently had to pull her out of school. How sad is that. Yeah her song had some stupid lyrics and the video was equally suckish but that is no reason to bully her out of school. I live in a state where a couple of kids were bullied so severely that they committed suicide. It would be nice if the people who bullied her got some sort of punishment because this has become serious business. It seems like people just don't understand the results of their actions anymore until they are brought before the law or have gotten some sort of punishment.

On the other hand, this is probably good for Rebecca Black cause she seems to be laughing all the way to the bank. She must have pretty thick skin. But we knew that cause it must take thick skin to make a cheesy song like she did and put it out on Youtube.

Laughter

We're a pill nation. We'll take a pill for anything and everything. You could go to the doctor with a made up illness and come out with a prescription.

What about laughter?

I just love it! Laughter IS the best medicine! I wish I could process it and put it in pill form.
