SCRATCHING HOLLOW CRY [POEM] 

Creatures and ghouls far and wide

Hear me now from the other side

Trust your luck to the old and wise

They should have drained your blood before you died

Now your scratchy, scratching, hollow cry

No one will hear you

Loved ones had said goodbye

 

Being buried alive is not much fun

It could happen to the best of us

Even a nun

Die your last breath while you weep

Dying will be easy; just fall asleep

Your ghost will rise to hunt the land

You're now a servant to the Bogeyman!

​

A LULLABY I SING TO MY KIDS EVERY NIGHT [LULLIBY]

Time to say I love you

Before I say good night 

Songs made from love

Makes for the world's greasiest lullaby 

Close your eyes

So in the morning, the sun will rise 

And when you wake up

You'll feel a little bigger inside

I love you

Love you 

Good night

​

A SWIMMERS TALE [POEM]

I swam out to sea and swallowed a whale

I swallowed a whale right down to its tail

I swam in the sea and looked quite pale 

I swam back from the sea with a whale of a tale

​

DREAM OVER A WHISH [SONG PHRASE]

Pray for miracles

Follow your dreams

But, no wishing 

Upon a star

You need to believe 

In who you are 

Then, all in what you do

Comes from what's in you

​

PHRASE

"Each day of a child's imagination is a single page in the story of a child's life".

​

PHRASE

"I don't have my beliefs to prepare me for death

I have my beliefs to prepare me for life".

​

RIDDLE

A stone never thrown

Lovers who never met

 

Time is fading

Life of regret

 

Speak silently and let go

 

The stone gave an answer 

For lovers who now know
