Words
Words, words-
they can mean so much.
Short or long
they are as
strong as a double edged sword.
They can cut and
they can sting.
They can paint and
they can photograph.
They can be quiet
or loud or peaceful.
Maybe protesting
and angry.
Words, words-
they can mean
so much.
So we must be
careful with words
for they are
double edged swords.
There is a magical place
where playing with sticks is encouraged.
Where children are taught
to ride brooms, not bikes
and Halloween gives a new fright.
There is a world where
stories come true.
Where fairies and pixies
really can sabotage
that missing homework.
Where elves help out
and cook your food.
A world where dishes
wash themselves
and gnomes are the problems
not moles or shrews.
There is a place
where a true hero is
a small boy
protected by his mother’s love,
marked forever by a little scar.
So take care children,
Don’t get lost
In this wonderful world ,
Just beware the nargles
and a small poltergeist.
Don’t forget your wand
and don’t forget your
memories.
For happiness is nearby
if one remembers
to turn on the light.
Dedicated to my Harry Potter fan fic fans
Jaywalk
There is a road ‘tween you and me.
I don’t like it as you’ll see.
How did it get here?
Why is it near?
This road keeps me away.
This road keeps me at bay.
Did you put it there?
Do you wish me to beware?
There is no crosswalk.
All I see is a roadblock.
Does your heart hurt?
Are you ‘fraid of getting burnt?
All I have to say-
is I’ll get to you anyway.
Baby you can’t keep me away.
This road won’t keep me at bay.
No crosswalk to you?
I’ll jaywalk! It’s true!
I’m gonna jaywalk myself right over to you.
I’m gonna make you woo.
‘Cause baby, I love you.
It’s true.
I’ll jaywalk this road ‘tween me and you.

No Such Thing as Goodbye
Tears and hugs, pain and sorrow, but what good will it do? We can’t cling forever or hold on to what we love.
Why do we make such a fuss about this when there is no such thing as goodbye?
Real friends, true friends, heart and soul friends, the friends of mine, I keep in my heart for each and every day.
I think of you in prayer and in every little moment.
I wonder about how you feel.
Real friends, true friends, heart and soul friends, the friends of mine, I can never forget.
The friends that you are, my friends of mine, I will never lose touch with.
You friends of mine I will see again.
I say will, not might, because it will happen.
Real friends, true friends, heart and soul friends, the friends of mine, love ties me too you and helps me through each and every day.
There is no such thing as goodbye my friends, it is only a see you later.
