Dylan Fields
Life is a Beach
Oh yeah, we are going to the beach today
Let’s get your swimsuits on and go out and play
We will go and build sandcastles in the sun all day
We dig holes and bury each other
We will run and jump into the waves
We lay in the sun and try to turn ourselves orange
We drink and party ’til we can’t remember
We make fun with each other and talk about tomorrow
We listen to music and visit with each other
We fall in love and make memories
We read a book and watch others play
Time to go home, but, wow, what a day
Columns
Columns are marvelous
They hold up the entire ceiling
They keep the roof over our heads
We stand and look up and stare at them
They provide unyielding support
They don’t whine
Or complain
They just stay and hold the building up
They are strong and supportive
Dark Poem
I was in a dark room
With a dark bird
With a dark note
With dark words
With dark letters
Did I mention it was dark?
Very dark
Too dark
Quite scary
I hear dark noises
Coming out of a dark-looking corner
Super dark
Wow, how dark is that!
Pretty dark, huh
Actually, wait, that’s too dark
Turn the lights back on
Oh … that’s better
