I wish I were the wind
blowing through the skies
singing and echoing
wouldn’t that be nice?
I wish I were the rain
dropping down, without any pain
So many would enjoy me
And I would pour with glee!
I wish I were the mountains
who stand up tall and steady
to see as far as I could
with a will to be ready
I wish I were the river
flowing calmly
sometimes when in anger
quite harshly!
Most of all I wish to be
All that I can, all that I am - Me!

I love my parents

I love my parents
who gave me my life
and love me so much
whenever I cry
they come to my help
when I am sleepy
their arms form my bed
I close my eyes in peaceful sleep
when I am hungry
they feed me with love
when I laugh
they feel happy
I love them so much
without them where will I be?

I like SEASONS!

I like seasons, because
there is a reason
even if it is summer, winter, autumn or spring
summer has the sweet scent of flowers and the buzzing of bees
winter has the coldness of an ice cream and the plain looks of trees
autumn has the colours of brown
and the crunching of leaves
Oh what a wonderful season
is spring to enjoy a wonderful time out
in the swing!
