If I Had it My Way

Last night, I said something to Elli that I believe should be a quote: "If I had it my way, life would be a musical!"  And I'd  have lots of songs.  The irony of this statement is that whenever my siblings are really annoying me because they're singing, I say "Hey, we don't live in a musical!  Stop singing!"

Haha.
Wrote another poem.  Has no name, but I'm calling it "Calista's Poem" for the time being. (for obvious reasons)

I will never see the sun rise

I will never see it set

I will never see fireflies

Or a spider’s sparkling net

I will never see a rainbow

Painted cross the sky

I will never see the stars glow

Or the twinkle in your eye.

I will never see you smile

I will never see your tear

But I can hold you for a little while

As long as you are near

But I can feel the heat

Of the rising and setting sun

And I can hear flies’ wings in beat

Steady as a drum.

I can smell the scent of rain

As it washes clean the earth

And I’m not about to complain

About my curse from birth

Just because I cannot see

Doesn’t mean that I’m deprived

I can be just as free

As a matter of fact, I’ve thrived

I can hear your smile crinkle

As it creases your face

And I can feel each worried wrinkle

And that's all I've got... it just won't end!!! END, DANG YOU!!!! END!!!!!!!!!

Got this idea last night at 10:30 and said, "Elli! Quick!  I need a piece of paper!!!"  By the time I got the paper, I was losing the idea, but I think I managed to get the jist of it.  It rhymes- most of my poems do not.  And I'm not sure I hate that- but it's hard to write more stanzas as I try to end this.

All right, gotta go.
