The Crack in the Wall.

They keep me locked away

Never to see another day.

It always dark and cold,

except for the one ray of sunshine that burst through

the small crack in the wall.

It's warm and bright outside of here.

But they keep me away,

saying it's not safe.

The crack in the wall is my ticket out.

I claw and try to dig my way out.

The crack is no longer there,

just a big hole leading somewhere.

I peek out the hole,

curious about the outside.

Scared at first,

but now I can spread my wings,

and fly.

Dreamer Mountain
(inspired by paint color names)

'Twas a quiet night,

As she sat on the ash gray mountain.

Staring at the stars,

Her pocket full of dreams,

She wished upon the crystals in the sky.

The silver reflection of the stars shone on her face.

As the Japanese windflowers whispered her true desires.

She prayed and hoped these gems in the sky would grant her wishes.
