Pelican Friend


4.12.10


Anna and 'er pelican

Went to the beach

She sat beneath 'n umbrella,

Her pelican did teach:


Flying, Gliding

Open wide, and

Caught a lot

Of fish and water



(Make sure you open your mouth as wide as you can on the second stanza... like a pelican would.) :D


This is dedicated to my fun friend Anna P for keeping me not so serious all the time. (Thanks for the artwork to go with the poem!)

The Sun of Spring

4.12.10


Green! Green!

Everything's green!

The sun, it shines

Down on me


Sun! Sun!

Glorious sun!

Wonderful brother

From above


Down! Down!

He's come down!

To share his life

With us on ground


Free! Free!

Everyone's free!

To feel the warmth

Of light we see


Run! Run!

Under the sun!

Get up, get out

Til' day is done

Our Color T.V.

1.22.09

You've become so afraid
Of what others might think
You lock the door
And throw away the key

For painting a self portrait
You set up a mirror
But society's holding the brush
And the T.V.'s your color

Different masks are all we have
Your truth underneath them all
A human among a hundred false
And look! You're so beautiful
