-More poems- If I were in charge of the world I wouldn’t sit on a throne. I would walk the dirty streets, talking to those homeless and alone. I would wear a robe, magical pure white silk, Made of love, hope and peace. Wherever I went It would shimmer and sweep. I could look behind me and see little kids running free, Not a care in the world, Houses built up in riches, Happily married women and men. The world would sparkle and shine With what I’d leave behind. If I looked ahead And saw skinny, scrawny children With parents abusive, divorced and diseased, never would I frown. For once I passed their town I’d leave behind only trails Filled with sparkling and shinning, enchanted tales. If I were in charge of the world, I would step up to my throne, With all as pure as a pearl. I’d sit down to enjoy the little things The things that deserve to stay The things that make your day-- A hot fudge sundae with a cherry on top To brighten bad times, A big, fuzzy teddy bear to cuddle when you need to cry, Warm golden-with-butter popcorn to munch while watching silly, but oh-so-wonderful movies, and more... If I were in charge of the world, I wouldn’t forget to leave challenges --for what would life be, handed to you on a silver platter? If all were too perfect Then nothing would matter. -Julie Ferguson- HAIKU COLLECTION OWL Sun sets quietly Eyes flutter open again Screeching over town SUN RISE Silhouetted bat Against morning rays of sun Forever blinded PREY OF NIGHT Darkness from cold nights Yellow eyes beam from forests Poised to pounce on prey PAINT MY SKY The sun paints pictures Streaked skies of many colors Floats down, one with sun STATE OF HONOR Blessed be thy fit name Describes your personality Walk with grace, held high -Julie Ferguson- FUZZY SOCKS I am sorry, For I have stolen your socks. Yes, the thick, fuzzy blue ones. I know, You loved to lie around The house with the Soft, comfy socks on, While the cold winter winds Made every other toe cold. Forgive me, but My feet were actually warm, And comfortable for once During the freezing cold winter. -Julie Ferguson- Post a comment in response: |
