You’re always in a playful mood
Even when I don’t want to play with you.
You just look up at me with those sad brown eyes
And I’m a goner and soon you’re waging your tail
In excitement.
Such a playful dog you are, running around with so much
Joy with a big grin on your face the whole time.

Your skin is so smooth
like a water slide, you remind me of summer
a time to have fun.
To lose yourself but hopefully find yourself before
the summer ends and all the fun is packed away in
the attic with all your summer clothes.
And so the smoothness of your skin will be like a distance
memory, you bring up when you want to remember the last
good time you had with them because you may not see them again.

Childhood something I remember
For there were fond memories of fun times.
Times when all I cared about was getting home
And playing with my toys or going outside to play.
My childhood was good even when it had the bad times or
The times I got in trouble for not listening.
Childhood you are a part of my past I will never forget even
If I wanted too.
You bring a smile to my face as I think about all the times a
Younger me ran around or just simply laughing with no care in
the world but knowing I had to be in the house before the streetlights came on.
Childhood you have my memories and so do I but, sadly we grow out of our childhood toys and clothes.
And we become teens then young adults, and adults and then we’re different from before but for the better.
Childhood I will cherish you like an old friendship, the memories of our times of youth will not be forgotten!

Sky your above me and your lovely on a sunny day
But I know when you’re in a mood for you turn light grey or
Dark grey and then your rain falls heavily down on me or just the
Grass.
And when your mad you rain comes down heavily and then the wind and thunder
And lightening come in full force.
And I have to go inside to protect myself for your unwelcome storm
That is so rough and unpredictable.
But then after the storm usually outcomes a beautiful rainbow and,
That I look forward too after you the sky rain down on me.
Even when you don’t look so bright sky I will always look forward to
Look up at you day and night for as long as my eyes can see you.

We all want to know our purpose or
We sometimes get lucky and already know when were young.
So you’re driven to pursue that purpose head first and you
Don’t give up until you successfully fulfill the goals of our purpose.
But some are still searching and it almost seems like a lost cause
and so they become lost in their life and, they think about their purpose
Every now and then.
And hope something will trigger the blockage of your lack of feeling important
Or just worth.
For even though you don’t know your purpose, your life is still important and
One day you will feel completely satisfied where ever you are in your life.

How I need you to cool me off when it heats up.
How refreshing you taste when you’re cold and, how
Nice it is to have you around when IÂ am thirsty and
Nothing else seems to truly cool me down and satisfy me.
It’s nice to be able to swim in you, whether it be a pool or the ocean
Everyone always has a good time.
To laugh and play in the water when it’s just too hot, yet you don’t
Want to stay inside all day in the cool A.C. house.

Being angry  can be  such an ugly thing
It turns you into someone your not.
As your eyes and face show the anger about
to pour out your mouth.
You don’t think twice about what your about to
Say to that person.
For you rather stay angry over a misunderstanding than
Fix the problem with just a couple of simple words.
Angry all the time or just sometimes, it takes a lot to just
Stop and cool down and accept that being mad all the time
Isnt always an option.
