Puppies

Puppies are cute, they're usually small,
Sometimes they're short,
Sometimes they're tall.
Puppies are playful and so much fun!
And mine always loves to lay in the sun.
Puppies are small, but they lick a lot,
Right on the face! That's the spot!
Whenever you leave, they want you to stay,
They want you to come on the floor and play!
Puppies are furry, they're easy to hold,
"Wrap a blanket around her! She looks like she's cold!"
You take her to bed, she looks into your eyes,
And you promise her this, you'll get up at sun rise.

Music's Ability

I walked up to my piano bench.
Everyone was watching,
Burning holes into my neck with their stare.
But as I sat down, my fingers took me away, Far far away...
They flew over smiling daisies, lanky sunflowers, and
Deadly Venus Fly Traps.
They played with the dolphins, swam with the fish, and
Escaped from the most dangerous creatures.
They watched the lovers' first kiss,
The epic of Warrior and Heroine, and defined
Happily Ever After.
They showed me what my boundaries were in the
Land of Imagination.
But there was no boundary.
And so I was taken to see jungles and safaris.
They ran with the zebras and lions and antelopes.
They sang with the parrot and blue jay and rooster.
They led me to the end of our journey.
Roaring applause filled my ears as I finished my piece,
And the daisies smiled at me once more.
