Favorite Quote:
There is a method to my madness.


Some people like to color inside the lines
I don’t.
Some people choose their words wisely
I let mine run free.

Some people like to be acute
I’m obtuse.
People say that I am weird or strange
But little do they know…
There’s a method to my madness.

The way I think the way I think
Talk the way I talk
Act the way I act
Trust me I’m not just crazy.

I not only think outside the box
I live out of it.
When people are going with the flow
I’m the one going upstream.

There are a lot of words that can describe me
Oddball

Weirdo


Crazy

Wacky





Insane

Strange

Batty
Mad as a hatter


The list is endless.
But always remember one thing:

There will always be a method to my madness.

One day when i was dancing around my house, jamming out to my favorite song, using our broom as a guitar/microphone, my little sister stopped me and asked me why I am so weird. I answered her with a wink,don't worry, there is a method to my madness. I want people to read my poem and realize that it is okay to stand out from the crowd and be yourself.

This poem reminds us that we should be grateful for having freedom to write creative and fun writings.

I know how you feel. I also dance around goofily. Funny thing is is that there is no method to my insanity but everything always turns out right!
