The Sea
By Alexander Ridley
Shh…
Says the Sea
I can see
your seaweed,
your shells,
your sand,
your ships.
The yellow sun shines
as I sit
on the grainy sand.
I can smell
your salt
I can tell
there’s a lot.
I see the sea
as the sunset sets.
I have seen
your golden tint
your relaxing wind
as I leave the sea
with a grin.

Morning dew
By Anonymous
The sun…
In spring
Reflecting intense
Shining light
On the little
dew drops
On the
sharp
As a
Knife blades
Of grass

I only miss you
By Anonymous
I have six eyes
and six lies
six ears
and six years
I have all this, but what do to what?
only to catch you..
you’re there in the mirror
there in my eyes
there in the kitchen as you stir up the next few lies
you can run but you can't hide
you'll always be there in my eyes

Peaceful is a woman
Who lives in the clouds
In their own world
Eating ice cream sundaes
In their christmas pajamas
Peaceful is a woman
who everyone loves
And wants to
Be
Peaceful is like coming up for
Fresh air
Peaceful is someone i will
Never be
- Peaceful
