Alphabet poem

 Stretchy elephant, so large and so grand

With a belly that's big, and a trunk in her hand She trudges along, with each step so slow But her mind is on something, that she wants to know

The alphabet, oh how it sings Each letter unique, with its own little thing From A to Z, she wants to learn them all To read and write, and stand tall

She starts with A, as easy as can be B is next, and then C, you'll see D, E, F, G, H, I, J Each letter a building block, for knowledge to expand

Stretchy elephant, with determination so true Will learn the alphabet, and all it can do For with each letter, she'll grow and she'll soar Stretchy elephant, forever more.

Hair of Gold

 Verse 1:

Little Emma, with hair of gold, Curls so pretty, stories untold, Quiet and shy, but always kind, Helping others, her heart on her mind.

Chorus: Little Emma, so pure and sweet, With bright blue eyes, that can't be beat, She loves her dolls, and puzzles too, And dancing and twirling, her favorite to do.

Verse 2: She loves the stars, and dinosaurs, Dressing up in princess clothes, she adores, She's quick to learn, and loves to read, A little angel, her parents' need.

Chorus: Little Emma, so pure and sweet, With bright blue eyes, that can't be beat, She loves her dolls, and puzzles too, And dancing and twirling, her favorite to do.

Bridge: She's growing up fast, before our eyes, But we'll always treasure, her sweet little sighs. I love my Emma, Emma loves mommy, Forever and always, our love will be sunny.

Outro: Little Emma, with hair of gold, Curls so pretty, stories untold, A treasure, a gift from above, Our little angel, filled with love.

Tears for Sophie

 Draft 1 


Sophie, my dear Yorkie, so small and so bright, My companion, my friend, my shining light, We were inseparable, from the start, With love so deep, it filled my heart.

I taught you fetch, and potty trained, We went on trips, and snuggled, no strain, We ran together, in the sun, Life was great, and so much fun.

But one day, I left you with someone, A trust misplaced, a mistake that was undone, Left alone, and not watched, Too close to the road, and that was your lot.

When I came home, I saw you there, Still and peaceful, in your forever sleep, My heart was shattered, my tears flowed, A life taken too quickly, too soon, it showed.

But through the pain, a lesson was learned, Of the fragility of life, and the bridges that are burned, I'll always remember you, my dear Sophie, And the love we shared, will forever be with me.



Draft 2

Sophie, my dear Yorkie, so small and so fair My companion, my friend, my love beyond compare We were inseparable, since you were just a pup With love so deep, it filled my heart up.

I taught you fetch, and potty trained you too We went on trips and snuggled, me and you We ran together, in the sun so bright Life was great, and everything felt just right.

But one day, I left you with someone I shouldn't trust A mistake that led to your untimely death, a must Left alone, unguarded and free Too close to the road, and that was where you'd be.

When I came home, I saw you there, so still Peaceful in sleep, my heart with a chill My tears flowed, my heart was shattered A life taken too quickly, too soon, it mattered.

But through the pain, a lesson was learned Of the fragility of life, and bridges that are burned I'll always remember you, my dear Sophie, And the love we shared, will forever be with me.


Song to Dad DRAFT

 Verse 1:

My dad was always there to guide me, Through the good and bad, he'd never hide me, He listened with an ear so true, And always gave advice, that was honest and true.

Chorus: He's always there to lend a hand, To help me up, when I can't stand, But living far apart, Has caused a pain in my heart.

Verse 2: I remember his smile, so wide and bright, It lit up the room, and gave us insight, His laugh was loud, and oh so grand, It always made us gather round and stand.

Chorus: He's always there to lend a hand, To help me up, when I can't stand, But living far apart, Has caused a pain in my heart.

Bridge: But though the distance may be far, I know his love, is like a shining star.

Outro: My dad was always there to guide me, Through the good and bad, he'd never hide me, He's always there to lend a hand, To help me up, when I can't stand.

My Hero

 Growing up, my dad was always my hero. He was the one I looked up to, the one I wanted to be like when I grew up. He had strong, broad shoulders that I knew I could always lean on. He was always there to listen to my troubles, and he was always honest with me. He valued truth and integrity, and while he could be stern at times, he never judged me too harshly. He was always there to help, and he always made it clear that I could confide in him, go to him, or even live with him if I needed to.

But as much as I loved my dad, there was one thing that always seemed to be missing in my life, and that was proximity. He always lived too far away, and I felt like that was a great mistake in my life. Living far from family is something that I believe is one of our society's downfalls. Family splits are the worst, and I missed him dearly every day.

I remember the first time I saw him smile, it was wide and genuine and it was contagious, the way it was able to light up the room. The way he laughed was also special, loud and boisterous, and it was a sound that I could always pick out of a crowd. I remember thinking that I wanted to have that kind of smile and laugh when I grew up.

But despite all of this, I knew that I could always count on him. He was always just a phone call away, and I knew that if I ever needed him, he would be there for me. And so, I hold on to that thought, that whenever I needed him, he would be there for me, just like he always had been.
