A Faceless Friend

My dear friend
Though I know you not
Are in my prayers
That you soon come back.

A faceless name
As some would say
Is who I pray for
To get well soon.

You remind me so much
Of another person unknown
That I truely wish I had
The chance to get to know.

We all pray every day
That you will come back to us
Even us that know you not
You are always in our prayers as well.

ICE CAROUSEL

An ice carousel be me,
Though I turneth not,
Made with humans & animals,
I sparkle quite clearly.

I cannot be moved,
From where I was built,
For trying to move me,
You will break me instead.

I look like glass,
But from snow am made,
Circle around me and see,
The rainbows of color,
That come from me.

My artist is talented,
As anyone can see,
Let us thank him for his artistry,
And wish him luck for the future.

THE LODGE

A lodge so quiet,
In the morning glow,
Will soon come alive,
With skiers abound.

The far off bridge,
Will bring them in,
Carloads and truckloads,
To enjoy the snow.

We have an orchard in the east,
We have slopes all around,
We have dark clouds in the north,
From the mountains beyond.

We have trees and hills,
Across the way west,
Our skiers will ski,
In the south, west, and east.

When the sun starts to set,
We will set fire to the logs,
And serve hot chocolate,
In an old fashioned way,
And our visitors will sleep,
All comfy and warm.

FIRE TREE

Here I sit all red am I,
Like a fire among green,
I am a lone fire tree,
In a patch of green leaves.

My Leaves are red,
My trunk is black,
Trees of green and brown,
Surround me all around.

I am a misfit,
Among the others,
But I love what I am,
Even if I be named a fire tree.

BEHIND THE TREES

I'm a tall building,
With Trees behind me,
I stand like a tower,
Above their beautiful flowers.

My building is green, black, gold, & white,
The flowers on the trees are purple, pink, red & blue,
Some of the trees have lost their leaves,
And others are pines that keep their needles.

They are the beauty behind me,
That I watch every day,
They are getting so tall,
That one day,
I may not be seen through them.

I am a building of honor,
A shelter with glee,
A family inside me,
That I protect and keep safe.

Remember my building,
Remember my trees,
If the world keeps changing,
Someday I may not be here.

BAMBOO

Bamboo Bamboo,
What a funny looking plant,
Green on the outside,
Hollow on the inside,
But food and furniture it becomes.

Bamboo in all its glory be,
Let the sun rays through,
If only a little at a time,
So that every part of it,
Feels the suns warm rays.

For the endangered Pandas,
Bamboo means life,
Lets hope for all Pandas,
They never lose their bamboo.
