Real Magic
Magic may seem
Like the stuff
Of fantasy
And fairy tales,
But I know
For a fact
That it really exists.
Real magic comes
In the form of
Sweet kisses
And affectionate hugs,
In gentle words
And selfless acts.
Real magic
Is respect
And trust
And loyalty.
It’s devotion
And kindness
And overwhelming joy.
Real magic
Is waking up
Every day
Next to someone
Who makes you smile,
Falling sleep
Every night
Beside someone
Who shares in your pain,
And spending
Your whole life
With someone
You could never
Live without.
How could I not
Believe in magic
When I grew up
Seeing it every day
In the form of such
True love?
Dedicated to my parents, whose love has always been a huge inspiration for my writing and my personal life. Thank you for teaching me what real magic is! I love you both so much!
My Darling Baby Sister
My darling baby sister,
You’ve always been to me
A gift sent from above,
The baby of the family.
My lovely baby sister,
You know this is a crime,
The way you’re getting older
Like you’re fast-forwarding time?
Adoring baby sister,
I wish you’d understand
Growing up is overrated,
Nothing special, nothing grand.
And yet, dear baby sister,
I know this to be true:
You’ve finally come of age,
And there’s nothing I can do.
So maybe this, sweet sister,
Is what you’ve been waiting for:
A time when I can’t see you
As a baby anymore.
But know, my darling sister,
That I love you anyway.
May you have a great adult life
And a wonderful birthday!
Happy Birthday to my awesome baby sister! Stay sweet, and know that no matter how old you get, I’ll always love you!
Land of the Free
I so love my great
Nation, a land of
Dreams, hopes, and
Everlasting liberty.
Patriotism abounds in
Every citizen’s heart as
New opportunities
Drive the spirit of
Embracing a better life.
Now we gather together to
Celebrate the day we
Earned our freedom!
Dearest country of mine,
America the Beautiful,
You are my true home!
Happy Independence Day to all my fellow American friends and family! May you all have a blessed Fourth of July weekend!
To Be the Middle Sister
To be the middle sister
Is a blessing and a curse.
To one sister, you’re the “better”;
To the other, you’re the “worse”.
When it comes to being older,
You’ve had gifts enough to give
To the younger of your siblings,
Who adores the life you live.
At the same time, being younger
Must have been a challenge too,
Growing up with someone older
Who made life so tough for you.
Yet the sister who’s your elder,
Who pretends to reign supreme,
Is in fact a little envious
Of your life lived like a dream.
But regardless of her envy,
She adores you just the same,
And she couldn’t be more proud
Of the person you became.
So today, my dearest sister,
Please allow me just to say
That I love you very much
And hope you have a great birthday!
Happy Birthday to my amazing little sister! Keep being the wonderful person you are! I love you!
Sonnet to my Favorite Hero
Today, you know I want to do something
For the best father any girl has had.
So here’s a poem that I’ve been writing
To thank you for being the greatest dad!
Thank you for all the times you make me smile
With all those silly words I know so well.
I love to sit and listen for a while
To all the stories you so love to tell.
I’m grateful for the lessons you give me
To help me be the best person I can.
In you, since I was little, I could see
The model of a kind and loving man.
You’re my favorite hero in every way.
I wish you all the best this Father’s Day!
Happy Father’s Day to my amazing dad! Thank you for always being my hero! God bless you always! I love you, Dad!
One Simple Request
Listen, my darling, to this
One simple request, from my
Vulnerable heart to yours,
Every day from now to forever.
My devotion to you is as
Everlasting as the stars in the heavens.
Free me from this
Overwhelming doubt.
Reveal your true feelings,
Else my faith in love may
Vanish indefinitely.
Eternal love of mine, please
Reciprocate my undying passion!
Stained Glass
Red flames
Orange flowers
Yellow sunbeams dancing
Green meadows stretching far and wide
Blue waves
Indigo birds singing sweet songs
Violet shadows looming
Timeless rainbow
Stained glass
Echo
What I saw from
Above you,
Of you,
Is what I see
Into you,
To you.
How could you ever
Fancy me?
See me.
You’re all I want
Before me,
For me.
Yet if you don’t
Believe me,
Leave me.
I saw all the lies
My ego threw you
Go through you.
I see the truth
In you– no, me.
You know me.
And I’ve known this,
For a while, of you:
I love you.
Sonnet to my Greatest Role Model
If there were only one thing I could do
To show you how you mean the world to me,
The best gift I could think to give to you
Would be to share my love poetically!
Today I thank you, Mom, for all the love
And care you’ve given me to help me grow.
Your lessons have been great examples of
The wisdom that I someday hope to know.
Your love has nurtured me throughout my life,
And your support has always seen me through.
Your model of a perfect mom and wife
Is one I hope that I can live up to!
For God to bless you always, do I pray.
I hope you have a Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Mother’s Day to my incredible mom! Thank you for being the greatest role model I could ever ask for. God bless you always! I love you, Mom!
