The March of the Morning Silence



We all march silently
in the dark
as if we were all
a silent army searching for a soul,
we rest at the clouds across,
when the light arrives we march,
march until we reach the early horizon
that lifts the paint across the sky
...our pace begins to quicken
as we begin to jump over the sunlight
the whole vision smooths back into my eyes
as I look at the others gliding,
my smile begins to shine,
we all laugh at the imagination
flowing in the air,
carefully
we look down below to the darkness,
why so depressing?
we sprint down to the earthy ground,
sudden rush of light brightens the surroundings,
Black turns to color,
Dead turns to life,
We are the morning shadows.

I am from Imagination...

I am from wood
piled next to the fireplace
I am from the smell of
rain and pine that lingers in the air
I am from a different world
where "I'm a spy!"
I am from the taste of plums
growing in the orchard
I am from a dog hiding behind
the barn like a new student
I am from mud pools to burning trash
out in the ditch
I am from trouble when i hear
"3.2.1!" Time to run
I am from hot pizza fresh out of the oven
with the urge to take a slice
I am from a small cabin hidden in the backyard
filled with warm blankets and stuffed animals
where the moths dance with the flowers
as I begin to catch them
I am from the old hutch
standing tall in the foyer
I am from imagination
filled with magic and fun
somewhere lost in my wonderland



Hide N' Seek


The moon shined down through
the attic window
our reflections were as bright as the stars
we were laughing hyenas
hiding from the seeker
our hearts beating with the rythm of our footsteps
the walls whispered to us
showing our shadows
that looked as lost as a puppy
we were ghost without a soul
searching for a place to hide
the seeker caught a glimpes
of a shine
there layed a locket with pure gold
the seeker went head-over-heels for it
now was our chance
we ran for the door
it slammed so hard
the force could have shattered a mirror
or possibly cause an earthquake
"Shhhh!" we whispered
our escape was quik and easy
with the thril in our hearts
playing hide n' seek
