Sometimes


Sometimes your day gets busy, and you forget about some things.
But don't get too worried, for you don't need the stress that brings.
Instead, take a moment, to breath and think things through.
And then you might be able to complete the tasks you need to do.

Fear and Desire


How must it feel, to have all who look at you scream in terror? To have your very shape be altered by their fears? To never know how you will been seen until their screams echo in your ears?
How would it feel, if you could never see your own true appearance?
Terrifying.
How must if feel, to have all gaze adoringly upon you? To be shifted into whatever form they found most appealing? To never know how they'll react to seeing what they most desire?
Who could you trust, if all saw you only as a coveted desire?
No one.
And what would happen if the one who became the most feared met the one who became the most desired?

To Say "I Love You"


1. You just figured out how you feel. And isn't that terrifying? If you don't get the words out of your system now, you might just ooze into a gooy mess of warm-fuzzies.
2. Someone you care about just told you how they feel about you. Feel free to take a moment to let their words sink in, and to contemplate your own feelings. Then respond accordingly.
3. Because your cat just did something adorable. Or simply because your cat decided to saunter into the room. The cat (usually) won't mind receiving your adoration.
4. Because a child said it to you. If a child that you know says they love you, you should let them know that you care about them too. Children need to know that they are cared about, and that their own affection is appreciated.
5. Because you've just spotted your bed after a long day. Inanimate objects can be cared about, and your bed can be your best friend when exhaustion drags you down.
6. When you are sick. If you're not feeling well, then the smallest actions and leave you filled with gratitude. And sometimes a mere thank you isn't enough to convey how you feel.
7. When someone else is sick. Sometimes all one needs to start feeling better when they're not feeling well at all is a little help and some loving words.
8. After a major event. Be it a disaster or a celebration, sometimes the best next step is to let others know how you feel.
9. When someone brings you your favorite food. Because food brings happiness, and those who share it deserve a lot of love.
10. During a peaceful moment. Declarations of affection need not be a massive production. Sometimes the best time to share your feeling is in those quiet moments one finds in each day, when minds are at rest and stress is far, far away.

Timmy's Dare


Timmy's friends set him a dare.
And so he broke his favorite chair.
Timmy's mom was very mad.
When she saw Timmy had been very bad.
Timmy was scolded and sent to bed.
No desserts was he to be fed!
And then on the 'morrow,
Timmy learned to his great sorrow,
That with those friends he could no longer play.
And he was to be tasked with chores all day!

Battle of the Bugs


The marching ants refuse to yield, no matter what foe they meet on the field.
The skittering centipedes' frightful stampede, is met by charge most fearsome indeed.
The droning bees who buzz from overhead? They're shot down like the flies who dared to laugh at the ants wearing red.
The flitting butterflies who dance in the wind, should have known better than to stay it doesn't matter who wins.
And the ladybug knows what the others failed to see; that ants are a force best left alone beneath the tree.
