Accomplish
I have accomplished
I have a dream
That I will work harder
Than I ever did before
I know I was put here for a purpose
To accomplish much more
I won’t let you down
If I fail I know I’ll pick myself up off the ground.
In this life when one door closes
Another door will open in its place
This, I know is going to take a little time
And sometimes it might move a little slow
I will get there
Just don’t ask why
Because if I fail
I know I did try
That is my purpose to learn something knew
Nothing will get in my way of what I want to do.
I never say I can’t because know I can
Its in my future and so far its my plan.
I want to go far in life and make people see
This is who I’ve become and all I can be.

Christmas poem
A Christmas Poem
It was days before Christmas
I hadn’t bought anything yet
Everyone is probably
Done all there shopping I bet.
So today I’ll go shopping
I can hardly wait
To go to the store
The pushing the shoving
I can’t believe I didn’t go before.
What if I get there
And the thing I wanted was wrong
What if the thing I wanted is gone.
I need to buy the perfect gift
The people driving are all crazy
So could you give me a lift
But then I might just forget about going
Because I don’t want to loose my mind
But then again it won’t take long to grab the first thing I find.
Nobody seems to have a Christmas list
And now I’m cold and blue.
I’ll be standing in line forever
Until someone gives me the flu
Then I’ll spend
Christmas at home in bed
I could have saved a bit of money
If I made their presents instead.

School Daze
The School Year
With teachers, books and a single pen
I’m desperately waiting for this school year to end.
I’ve learned all my teachers by heart.
And they taught me the importance to finish what I start.
They told me over and over not to cheat.
And they sometimes said I might get an incomplete.
I was always doing papers over and over again
Then they would give them back.
I don’t know how they managed but they always kept me on track.
It would be hard for me to learn new teachers again.
I love the old ones
To start again all over
Not knowing who you are going to meet.
There will be that one special teacher to get you back on your feet.
Many teachers may wonder how I get by
Because they might not know my feelings of how hard I try
You stayed after class to help me
I need to say thank you for all the extra things that you do
Because I don’t know what I’d do without you
I look up to you and you are my guiding light
And if I made mistakes you are there to correct me and tell me everything is alright.
I made it this far
I want that degree.
Its right there, I see it in my future
And its staring at me.
I have to thank all my instructors
Who have been there for me
Thanks for helping me through this it has been so far my plan
You have been there through it all and are my #1 fan.
I’m on a ladder to life
And it doesn’t seem to have a top
I will keep on climbing because there doesn’t seem to be a stop.
Because I’ve learned that learning has no end.
And when I graduate I plan to come back and find a friend.
I keep climbing higher and higher.
I will never rest.
I can’t stop until
I am the very best.
Because you have got all that I need
It will start growing in my future and help me succeed.
So I just wanted to say thanks.
