I made this up on the spot, I am bored. Feel free to critique, but nothing deliberately mean. Thank you!


The sun shines over head.
The trees rustle.
The street moves with life.

My head spins.
My pulse throbs.
I feel too full of life.

With books, my iced tea,
Maybe some dry cereal.
I take in the world...

The cars pass by.
The stars begin to show themselves.
And still I sit and wonder.

Life goes on.
We seem to have so much of it.
How can life stop for someone?

Nature is too great.
I don't want to stop living.
So I sit and take it in, I sit and live.

The bees buzz.
The flowers bloom.
The sweet smell of grass wafts in the air.

Life eventually ends.
So I sit and live while I can.
Until the phone rings and I go and live in a different way.

Can anyone tell me what they know, or think they know, or have heard about Avalon? Just taking a poll for my book.

Yes I will be reading them all and I do always choose a best answer. I will post some of mine here too for you to read.

The Dragon

Deep in the caverns of my used to be
Resides a dragon of immense proportions
Along the viaducts of my existence
It wanders back and forth

In the hallways of my mind
I hear the screams of its victims
The dragon feeding and feasting
On those who cross its path

Burning flames cauterising pains
Sealing scars of slashed memories
Talons digging into flesh and bone
Ripping apart the the long dead

Deep in the caverns of my used to be
The dragon sleeps dreaming of escape
Hibernating till summer arrives
Slumbering in the corners of my used to be

OK so I have typed this theory many times only to be not listend to PLEASE LISTEN AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK! (sorry for the spelling) OK so If anybody remembers right there was a locket that they found, while cleaning Sirius' house (may his soal rest in peace) and nobody was able to open it so they threw it away. (remeber that the initials from the fake locket in book 6 R.A.B.) possibly Reguless, Sirius' brother, destroyd the locket and left the remains of it behind because he was probibly killed within time of that because the Dark Lord can probibly feel when he has a peice of his soal destroyed. So he murderd Regules for betrayle. So the leftovers of the locket were placed in the cabnit by Kreacher the house elf. So What do you think? Please tell me what you think... Also I love reading other people's theorys so if you have one please do share! (p.s sorry if its in the wrong place)

My votes with Yossarian from Catch - 22. Absolutely hilarious and tragic in equal amounts.

My favorite is E.E. Cummings because of the way he treated the English language and its grammatical constructions totally differently than anyone else ever has, and my least favorite is Robert Frost because to me his poetry seems to be nothing more than shallow metaphor.

True feelings

I guess you’ll never know that I loved you so!
I wish I could tell you how I feel for you. But I
can’t wait forever. I’m tired of being alone. I’m
tired of thinking of you every day. But I
guess we’ll be friends. I trusted you to
be there for me, to let me tell you what I’m
going through. But when I’m near you I feel
like it’s just you and me, like nothing matters.
It’s like I could talk to you forever. But I’ll
deny the truth if it means staying friends
with you. My true feelings for you, you’ll never
know. I’ll move on one day. I’ll keep in
touch with you over the years, because
you’re important to me. You were someone
who could make me smile when
I was sad. You were the guy that was sweet
and funny. I guess I’ll never know how
you felt about me.

I found that in the past 7 years of my life has been very interesting and I want to write it out. Something for me to do as a hobbie to occupy my time in a good way. I wanted to know, I know I need to take a quick english class refresher for this maybe. When writing I am the narrator, correct? How do I write in the proper manner when a coversation is in progress from person to person . Where does this markes go (" ") go? That is my biggest challedge writing it correctly. This will not be published or anything just for me ( i think..) Are there websites for starters , maybe and how to write correctly. I should have paid more attention in class.
