The wind begins to blow
The trees start singing
A leaf gently breaks free
And so it is beginning
The leaf floats through the trees
Across meadows and fields
Into a farmers yard
Ten years old,
bushy-haired and bright,
full of endless fluidity
from her years of practiced dance
A little butterball of seven
with an angel's face,
a devil's sharp tongue,
I lost myself in the sky
I found a smile passing by
I missed a moment I should've seen
But that's how I've always been
Feeling the fall breezes go through my body and swirl in my hair are things that swell my heart on a cold autumn day. Getting together with family and friends are what makes the season worth living through.
The sun leaves us,
Mother nature‘s call
Beauty surrounds us,
All the leaves fall
Football fans cheer,
Trips to the pumpkin patch
Spooky stories you will hear,
Feeling free makes me happy.
I love driving with the windows down.
Singing horribly at the top of my lungs,
Disney songs
Country songs
Any songs.
Feeling loved makes me happy.
According to Webster, passion is a noun,

Why live solely by the bible,
When it fills you full of hate.
You'll only destroy,
No ability to create.
Endless sleepless nights,
Questioning beliefs,
But you have to keep your head down,
"Teachers don't make much money."
"Early Childhood Educators make practically no money."
"Day Care providers make less than doormen."
I hear it.
I hear it.
I hear it all.
Yet the promise of money,
It all begun as soon as I walked into that place,
Many standing beside me, I certainly was not just another lonely face.
I turned and looked around, noticing my heart beating out of my chest,
This heart is at peace, finally.
It has been one hell of a journey.
