Seasons of Love

Surprise! Another poem!


Seasons of Love
Temperatures cooler
Colors change the trees
Leaves fall
And the memory of summer flees.

My dear love
You have left me so
Standing here alone
Amidst the falling snow.

I have forgotten
Yet you come back for me
Running through the flowers
You are the only one I see.

Heat scorches the sky
Summer sun beats down
I'm standing with you here
In my beautiful white gown.

Back to cool weather
I stand looking at this tree
You will never leave me again
This memory will never flee.

Runaway

Another poem. Enjoy!

Runaway
A girl stands alone
Her toes in the sand
A pebble in one hand

The pebble isn't the answer
She knows this is true
She knows not what to do

The boy at home disturbs her thoughts
Takes her away from this
The opportunities she'll miss

The pebble splashes the water
Droplets splash her legs
The life she's missing begs

One thought enters her mind
She's running away
Running on this very day.

Seal Dreamin'

Another original poem story by Terina. I came up with it at work. I don't know what it means, but it's pretty cute. Here ya go!

Seal Dreamin'
I'm swimming through an ocean of dreams,
Fishing through what's real.
"Keep swimming," I tell myself,
When I happen upon a little seal.

"Help me," he cried,
Tears streaming down his skin.
"I don't understand,
Why am I missing a fin?"

"Oh, poor little seal,
Come on over here."
He flops over
As I rub his little ears.

"Now, now, little seal,"
As his tears keep streaming.
I don't believe this is real.
I know I must be dreaming.

I rub the seal's head and say,
"A fin is what you lack."
Acting as a fairy, I say,
"Now your fin will grow back!"

"Did it work, did it work?"
The seal asks eagerly.
Disappointed in myself,
I decide to look heavenly.

"Little seal, little seal,
What shall we do?"
I get an idea and exclaim,
"This is what makes you, you!"

"What do you mean?
I can't do any special tricks.
All the other seals," he cries,
"Can swim and play and do flips."

"You're very special,"
I tell the little seal.
"Your mouth, your mouth," I point.
"Tell me what you feel!"

"My tongue?" the seal answers,
And sticks his big tongue out.
"Your voice, little seal,
Now don't sit around and pout!"

"You can talk, little seal,
That's what you can do!
You may be missing a fin,
But this is very special, too!"

"Use your voice, say it loud.
Tell them how you came to be.
And when you're done,
Please come and visit me!"

I open my eyes.
My dream is now done.
I open the curtains to reveal
Glints of a rising sun.

"Thanks for your help!"
I hear the seal's voice in my head.
Feeling satisfied,
I fall back into my bed.

Maybe you're the little seal
Waiting for someone like me
To come along and help you
Meander through life's open sea.



Tell me how you like it!
