Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;When I try, I fail. <br /> When I trust, <br /> He succeeds.<br /> ― Corrie ten Boom


Come to think of it

She never can sit still
Itching for more than this
Her words carry a heavy weight
Hallucination, aggravation
She crawls under their skin
Don't worry, it's just her ah-pen-yen
Psychedelic, caustic
Her mother never taught her to be polite
Aunti Emma approves
Hazy, lazy
She will light her midnight oil
You must watch for spills
Greedy, hungry
Just a moment
She'll be right backjack
Main, vein
Her words have a fragrance
Just don't breathe it in
Bitter, heavy hitter
Her kinder veins are vanishing
Her once tender heart is now hard
Come to think of it
Attention is her opium


The author's comments:

In my English class I had to write this poem and include some of my favorite words. I used some like, opium, veins, and phsychadelic. I definitely enjoyed this assignment more than I thought I would.
