Cleaning the Bookshelf

Hi, this is Laura taking a turn at writing a blog post. As you probably already know, the job usually gets left to Emily. But the other day I came across some really great inspiration that was worth sharing. I was cleaning my bookshelf and going through years of writings and drawings. I spent a good share of the time reading and laughing at my stories and terrible spelling. But the best by far were a couple pages of poems I wrote at one point. Of course I never dated my work so I have no idea how long ago I wrote them, but judging from the handwriting, it's been awhile! So here's a few of my masterpieces. Enjoy!  (Note: I've copied these as closely as possible from the originals. So expect misspelled words.)

People

Some are red some are white

some are yellow and some have might

some are weak and some are strong

some are there and then are gone

To God their all so special

for their his Holy vessels

God knows all of their Troubles

for their like his own bubbles 

(Don't ask me what bubbles have to do with anything, but it rhymes!)

Sail across the ocean Sail across the sea

Sail across Superior and get away from me

Fly over the treetops Fly across a field

Fly acroos Prairie and swoop when I say yield

(Please don't take it personally, but once again, it rhymes!)

Winter

The nights are long

The days are short

in houses we belong

houses filled with candle sticks

and other little Picks

Hope you enjoyed! Have a great day, and remember: you're special to God, just like His bubbles!
