    Many Miles And Some Dude's Backyard Away....
    Mother Nature comes back in
    but we're going out
    The week is for relaxin'
    And that's what we're about

    We're gonna hit the road
    See some sights and some places
    Maybe by Freeway or a Boat
    Wherever's easer to stack cases

    Spring time's around the corner
    With the bees and the flora
    But we'll be past the border
    Sipping tequilas and Corona

    So pack the cases in the Hummer
    Let's let everything go smooth
    The only way it can be a bummer...
    ...Who's got change for the toll booth? O_O

    ~Travel High, Travel Low~

    What's Wrong With The World Today?
    No Matter What I'll Find A Way.
    Nothings gonna stop me now Ive set my mind.
    Just see the world In front of you
    Oh, what a wonderful view.
    Maybe I'll see that world one final day.

    So I'll Travel high, I'll Travel low
    Trying to find which way to go
    Climb the highest mountain or the Greatest Sea.
    I'll Travel low, I'll Travel high
    Trying not to be too shy
    Walking all the city's or riding In the sky.

    Gonna grab my coat and grab my bag
    Putting my name on the tag
    Don't want to get lost In this big big world.
    Maybe I will reach that place
    To settle down and rest that chase
    To stop climbing the highest mountain In the sky.
    I know It sounds too crazy
    But my head Is kind of hazy
    From all this fuss and all this worry Its put me through.

    So I'll Travel high, I'll Travel low
    Trying to find which way to go
    Climb the highest mountain or the Greatest Sea.
    I'll Travel low, I'll Travel high
    Trying not to be too shy
    Walking all the city's or riding In the sky.

    Your poem has potential, but you should learn to use capitalization and punctuation properly. Literary pieces aren't like RPing. :huh:

    yea, so I figured i'm heading to florida for spring break, that i'd submit a travel prose for Disneyworld. Hope you all enjoy

    Wishes

    To all who come to this happy place, welcome.

    The plaque reads from the castle steps.
    One step forward,
    Leafs rustle innocently along Main Street
    A train yawns awake far off.
    Ragtime music sweeps through the airy courtyard,
    Raising a wind deep inside.
    One jump ahead,
    And through the castle gates I soar,
    Returning to the land
    Where age stands like a frozen hourglass.

    Down cobblestone drives and English manors
    Over mountains and around the river bend
    Past temples and amongst comets I meander.
    Every step a memory,
    Every blink a moment longing for a glimpse
    Into the imagination of the creator.

    Faces fly all around, off to Neverland
    Youth clutching the unmoving sands of time,
    This land cannot be tarnished.
    Upon my head,
    Two golden spheres divulge and absorb
    laughter
    excitement
    peace.

    Slowly, a path beckons like a poisonous apple,
    Down the rabbit hole I tumble
    And awaken, the hourglass loosening the particles,
    Back to reality.

    Traffic,
    War,
    Anger,
    Hate,
    Destruction….
    Evil.
    That’s what lies before my unwavering eyes
    As the world swirls past my porthole in life.
    But a smiles rises by night.

    For up to the heavens jewels I glance, wishing.
    My eyes unearth the second star to the right,
    The hourglass flies from my hands, shatters
    The grains falling like a meteor shower.
    I can go the distance.

    For one man’s imagination has become my sanctuary
    Strangers like me flow toward it each moment,
    Escaping the reality to enter a whole new world.

    It’s a tale as old as time:
    Wishing I could be set free
    Wishing upon a star
    To defy growing up,
    To be a lost boy.

    But only one thing remains, one last wish.
    I’ll navigate my magic carpet in jungles unknown,
    Climb the snow-covered mountain for all mankind,
    Discover ocean mysteries with me hardies yo ho
    Only to wish for to share this small world

    With you
    If you shall come too...

    K, here comes something off the top of my head about summer trips

    On the sea coast I sit,
    Watching waves wash my feet.
    Yet something dosent feel right,
    What is it?

    After this, new school, new me!
    I just hope I can become
    Something new
    For people to see.

    All my friends 20 million miles
    All so far from me,
    I hope they still can,
    So far away, remember my smiles.

    I'm in my home,
    The place that is,
    Though so long since I have visited,
    Still my own.

    What it is that
    Bothers me I still cannot decide,
    May be its that to my friends
    I've finally tipped my hat.

    spring

    Spring at last a new begining for everything
    The earth begins it's journey around the sun once more.
    The rain clouds dissappear to be replaced by warm sunlight.
    Spring flowers will start to grow once more.
    The beach will once again be over crouded.
    The earth has another 365 times to spin.
    Lots of things happen in spring that won't happen in summer, autumn and winter.​



    oh and congrats ~Sasumi~ i really stand no hope this time i haven't had time to work on my poems i have exams next week i've been spending most of my free time revising

    Goodbye Winter <3


    My boots are lost
    My mitten is hiding
    My snow suit too little
    My sled isn't riding

    The snow goes away
    The rain appears
    More flowers, grass
    and birds to hear

    The wind comes near
    so warm and dry
    It's time to get
    my kite to fly

    My short sleeves
    and my medium shirts
    go along together
    with my knee high shorts

    Spring has come
    Oh me oh my
    To winter
    I finally say Goodbye


    <3

    Here is mine!
    ~Spring Forever~
    Winter has come and gone,
    Spring is on it's way.
    I think about my loved one's,
    each and every day.
    Flowers are budding,
    grass is growing.
    Spring is here to stay.​
