Brooke is so cool
She doen’t even drool
she has a big heart
and she doesn’t hardly fart

she has a big butt
she likes to cut
cheese in the light
and cheese in the night

she wears a big hat
she also has 3 cats
she sometimes is a pest
but shes my sister and the best

The michtee Scot through and through,
Never gave up whilst the enmy grew.
The tall blue eyed lad, William Wallace,
At Stirling Brig his ermy was flawless.
Stirling Brig,h Stirling Brig,
Yee helped them o’, at Stirling Brig.

As the battle died of, along came Murray,
The English were feart, as they started tae scurry.
As they backed off, victory was certain,
Wallace’s blood, soaked rauchan.
Stirling Brig, oh Stirling Brig,
Yee helped them o’, at Stirling Brig.

Wallace the hero, Murray the saviour,
All thanking Murray, he did us a favour.
Happy Scots, cheers all around,
As he was brave, he should’ve been crowned.
Stirling Brig, oh Stirling Brig,
Yee helped them o’, at Stirling Brig.

The freedom fighter, came to an end,
The battle o’ Falkirk, he did not reccomend.
Dying in England, screaming freedom,
The English king, keckling in his kingdom.
Stirling Brig, oh Stirling Brig,
Yee helped them o’, at Stirling Brig.

I sent back the proof sheet, so I’m supposed to be published! I’m going to check this goal off my list now!

I just need to send back the proof sheet and I’ll be published. They haven’t decided on the top 10 poems yet, and they’re letting the poets vote. Hopefully, I’ll be able selected as one of the top 10 people and I’ll win a free copy of the book. The books are kind of on the pricey side…

I plan on mailing the proof sheet tomorrow, though!

There will never be a time when i don’t think of you.
i look up and see the sky
but know your are there right beside me telling me everything will be OK.
Best Friends stay friends for life but now your gone it will grow stronger than it was.
i cry all night i cry all day , i here your voice inside my head telling me you will always be there … i look at old pictures of us back in the days How happy 2kids can be .
you was there through thick and thin but now your gone it all comes to an end.

You was a true best Friend

I submitted my poetry contest entry, and I hope to write a few more poems in order to enter more poetry contests. I’m not sure if I’ve already mentioned this, but I’m not much of a poet; however, since I plan on being a writer, I want to poke my nose into both prose and poetry.

I found a poetry contest online and I plan on submitting to it. They publish them in a book, or at least the top ones, and hopefully I will be able to write a really good poem and receive a free copy of the book. :)

If I don’t win this one, though, I suppose I’ll keep writing anyway. I believe they host several contests throughout the year, and I’d love to be able to cross this goal off of my list.

I have a published poet/editor reading a few of my poems. xD

Wish me luck!

I’m honing a poem I wrote under carefull supervision in college, one I won a contest on recently, and one that would fulfill another goal. I have connections to a publishing house and magazine I interned at.
