Soldier On

Submitted by Hannah W. on Tue, 12/30/2008 - 23:17

Every time it seems I've gained an inch,
I fall back another foot
Every time I feel like I'm on a roll again,
I get stuck down in a rut

Why is it like this?
Why can't it be easy?
All I want to do is fly,
touch the blue sky, light and breezy

But I'll just soldier on,
keep marching down the road,
Just keep going on,
even when it rains and I bear my heavy load
I'll just soldier on

this should get at least a grin outta u!

Forth Three Hunters! II

Submitted by Elizabeth on Sun, 12/28/2008 - 20:52

Riding down the Dike into the trees
Dark and tangled hang the leaves
Gimli looks in uneasy thoughts
Legolas looks in wonder and awe
Forth Three Hunters! Time is brief!

Out from under the trees’ dark boughs
The riders hear the cry of Legolas
In the forest standing still, eyes he sees
Walking forward out from under the eaves
Forth Three Hunters! Linger not!

Just something I thought I'd share - my very first poem =)

I come
Home
And there
I find old cat.
Sweet serene loving
old cat always
there just lying
there waiting
for you to get home.

Bella's Heart- Chapter 2

Submitted by KatieMarie on Sat, 12/27/2008 - 17:53

Bella took a deep breath and inhaled the familiar scent of home. The funeral was over, and she couldn’t be happier. In the foyer, she kicked off her black pumps and shook her left foot. She knew a blister was coming. Behind her, Anne, who was holding baby Edward, Helena, Darcy and her other siblings, Josie, Jake, Lizzy, Haley, Kevin, Sadie and Charlie came in. At the end of the line, Ben shuffled in. Bella noticed that he had dark circles under his eyes and looked tired. She realized how hard it must be to take care of eleven kids and one sister-in-law.

Bella's Heart: Chapter one

Submitted by KatieMarie on Sat, 12/27/2008 - 01:35

This story just popped in my head one day. Anne is loosly based off my sister and Melissa is based on my friends Katie (KatieSara) and Emalee smooshed together into one person. And Bella is based off myself.The fact that she feels guilt and blames herself is something I would do. It's actually someting I DO do. Tell me what you think. ;)

Reading

Submitted by KatieMarie on Sat, 12/27/2008 - 01:25

When I need to relax, I read. To me, nothing is more satisfying than lounging on my bed with a good book in my hands. When I read, all the worries of the real world fade away. I can fly with Peter Pan to Neverland, or go with Harry Potter to Hogwarts. Whenever I need to escape the pressures of my life, I can just open one of my favorite books and wander into Narnia through the wardrobe.
