Pretty Sky, Pretty Tree,and Evil Geese

Love Letter (LL)

Since the first day I saw you

I knew, I wanted you

Your beauty and subtility

Your kind smile so bright

Your face glows, your amazing

Today we talked, three months ago

I asked for your name

Today after school

Will you meet me beneath the willow tree

Hopefully I will tell

I love you

Will you be my one true love

A star in my dark night

#Poems #loveletter

At only 19, he was forced to join the war, to protect those he loved

A fight for control

Blood guts and shells

To young to have witness but there was no choice

A call for more soldiers

A fight to protect

His people , his rights, and future generations

For both the people he loved and hated

Fighting till the end

Secrets not told to just anyone

Enemies hiding in the shadows, signaling

Asking for mercy, for it to end

Scared for their safety

Begging for help, to escape

In the shadows we gain more help

One day the war will end

People will cry, mourn, and thank their people

Outsiders at one point now family to many

These wars killed many, so thank you for your service, those who survived to tell their tales and to those who died on the field as well

Life(L)

My normal everyday day life

Boring as it is

Prepare some coffee, toast and eggs

Read for an hour

Listen to music

Think of scenarios

Of what could have been

Prepare his lunch

Sit and write

Today I'm thinking

Maybe a fish will bite

My dreams so big

But my hope so small

My everyday life, this is part of it all

Do my chores, read a bit more

Do I want to write? I'm not sure

Today I wonder what could have been

But tomorrow is where it all begins

#poems #life

Taken at school, on my way home , and on the road to Bakersfield for a field trip

It's a trashy picture, but look!!! The moon!!!

peace

peace is a wonderful thing

something so simple

yet so complicated

its the gentle winds blowing against your hair

the bright sun warming your face

its spending time with people you love and care for

but sometimes its a little more dark

a little more violent

its the feeling of getting reveng

of being the first to do it and taking others down

its fighting back against the bully

its the knife in that guys back

the one who tormented you to no end

but sometimes peace is also the quiet

or the load bickering, and laughter

peace is so complicated

but its something we all want

with its flaws and all

So I asked some friends to choose between LL, W, L,B,

W stood for war, LL, stood for love letter, l stood for life, and b stood for betrayal, I've written w and be so far, so I'm sharing w, I might share b

War

This missiles fly overhead

Our labored breathing

The blood pumping

The screams, the cry's

I hear it all

My body aches

My gun lays beside me

My comrades lay farther behind

I hold in my tears

I'm either dying here in battle

Or at home with my family

Darting off, I run

I throw grenades

I'm shouting and shooting everyone in opposite uniforms

The pain in my leg worsens

I'm shot in the arm

I duck behind a boulder

Reload,Listen,Attack, Hide, Repeat

Hours, days, weeks, months...years

Finally after who knows how long

A white flag

Raised high in the air

Our freedom? No, their freedom

They approach, hundreds, thousands of soldiers

We won

We can go home

Is it raining? No I'm crying

It's over

Home

Home, whether that's a place, person or thing

I hope you have a safe place

You can run to when things become to much

That you find comfort with whatever it is

Family isn't always home

Home is your safe place

Where you can be you

Where you are loved unconditionally

A place why you can run to,at, or with

The warmth it may provide

Home does not have to be a place,

It can be a person you trust and love or

Something you hold dearly

Let you safe place comfort you,

To be loved unconditionally

From 2021, I have not drawn in so long 💀
