This is something I wrote back in 2007 when I was adjusting to college and being on my own for the first time. As graduation season concludes, I feel the following poem is only appropriate. Going off to college means being surrounded by an unfamiliar environment that is filled with so much potential. It meansContinue reading “Here and There”

Doop doop doop du doop Swoosh swoosh swoosh… zing! La la la la di di daaaa Plink plunk plink plunk Snap Snap Snap … Boom! Oooo Ooooo Oooooo It doesn’t matter what melodies you listen to. Music can make you laugh, smile and even cry. Just listen to whatever feels right.
Life is but a waterfall
Sometimes there are no words to describe your thoughts because they are a jumbled up mess. Sometimes curve balls get thrown your way, and you can’t dodge them. Sometimes you feel so lost that there is no way of finding your way back. Then, from out of nowhere, there is a tiny ray of lightContinue reading “Life is but a waterfall”
Is it “Day and Night” or ‘Night and Day”?
To the Sun and the Moon, The light escapes me. Sunlight. Moonlight. Which one comes first? Why do we belong with the Day and not the Night? Nocturnal owl, Who’s to say we can’t live in your world? Who’s to say we don’t quite fit in? With those big glowing eyes, you can seeContinue reading “Is it “Day and Night” or ‘Night and Day”?”

Smile girl smile Though the world hits you hard Smile girl smile Though theContinue reading “Monday Reflections: Life’s Deal”
My Sleepy Morning
I can’t help but feel drowsy. This feeling I must overcome. The eyes are getting heavy. The closing has just begun. Can someone bring me a shot of espresso? I’m not sure how much longer I can hold on. This isn’t a good way to start a morning. It’s time for a Starbucks run! Good-morrowContinue reading “My Sleepy Morning”
