The Ocean

   The sun glistens off the crashing waves

   Twinkling as the water moves in and out

With every wave comes a new pile of seashells

          Waiting to be discovered

   The roaring waves rush to meet the sand

             Pulling it out to sea

     Slowly grinding rocks into pebbles

       And pebbles into grains of sand

         The ocean is never ending
The Light

The light slowly appears from the horizon

    Lifting upwards towards the sky

     Bringing us out of the darkness

     Telling us to forgive and forget

       Because today is a new day
Thoughts

         Pink fuzz between your toes

     Giant red balloons floating in the air

Green leafy trees swaying in the wind whistling

              their favorite songs

     Small jars of jam stacked on shelves

            Just waiting to be used

What else will come to mind before I fall asleep
Iambic Tetrameter

  I want to sleep, I cannot think

  The day is done, I hit my peak

 My poem’s done, I can’t do more

Turn off the light and shut the door
Ode to nature

   The wind goes to many places

    Softly touching many faces

   Bringing smells into out noses

  Pollen comes up from the roses

   The wind that fuels hurricanes

    Rustles grass upon the plains

The gusts that blow around the world

 Messing up your hair if it is curled

 The wind that travels everywhere

   Is enough for all of us to share
Limerick

      A cow a snake and a goat


 Were once floating around in a boat


    When they found a small fish


    Who then granted them a wish


And they wished for a root beer float
