Rhymes and Reasons: A Poetry Chapbook by Mrs.Faith

 

Life Without A Dream 

Life ain't what it seems

It's not as green as it looks

Sometimes it brown orange

Life can be sad if you let it be

You can be happy full of beautiful smiles

If you can believe it could be

Life ain't what it seems

The sky is not as blue as it looks

It can be sunny and bright

With miles and miles of fresh air

Life can be gloomy if you let it be

Life can be good if you let it be

Life ain't what it seems

It is not as dark as it appears

Life can be black and unknown without a dream

Life can be brilliant if you let it be

So let life be what it want to be

  

The Sun

 

The sun shines brightly in it’s socket of greatness

It has it's own space of brilliance and brightness

The sun sets lonely in the sky shining for everyone

It warms the earth on a cold dreary day

It dries the earth on a rainy snow day

No one can play with the sun

Even though it looks like a big giant on display

It can warm our bodies on a cold day

It can dry our tears on a sad day

When the sun is shining brightly

It looks like a big old smile on a happy face

The sun glows constantly forever

What makes the sun shine

Only God will know the true secret of the sun

It casts a shadow on the ground of the entire world

In one single day. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   Hello Spring 

      Flowers are blooming

 

     Sun is shining

 

     Not much rain

 

     A lots of sunshine and flowers

 

     Spring forward Sun shining

 

     Winter is gone Hello Spring

 

     Leaves is green Plants is growing

 

     Birds is singing Hello Spring

   

The City Lights Up

I'm driving in my car

My headlights on the dark road

Looking at the street lights on the pole above my head

Stores glowing with their lights on

Cars passing by with their headlights on

Stars twinkles in the sky

Moon bright up the whole world  

 

 

SOCIAL DISTANCING IS A GOOD IDEA

 

 

    You get to order your stuff online

 

    You go exercise at the park

 

    Upload funny videos on YouTube

 

    FaceTime or texting with your cell phone to your friends

 

    Working as a assistant online or work at home jobs

 

 

 

    Writing a Book online

 

    Reading a magazine and urban book

 

    Cooking a new recipe

 

    Singing or dancing in your own room 

   You get to stay 6 feet apart

 

    When you hear someone sneeze or cough

 

    You walk the other way

 

    You wear a mask

 

    Wash your hands with Hand soap or Germ-X

 

    To protect yourself

 

    If you can’t breathe

 

 

    Pull the mask down to your chin

  

      The Halloween Ghost

I live in this house with black out windows

My bed sheet hang over my door

My home turn into a museum

People's come see if the museum is haunting

 

 

          I'AM Powerful

I AM Strong

I AM Beautiful

I AM Phenomenal Woman

I AM Cool

 

 

 

          I Rise

You tell lies on me

You look at me like you don't like me

You don't even know me I rise

I walk with my head held up high

You tell me I' am mean

I have no friends

Calling me nasty

You cussing me out

You want to fight me

Deep down you have some low self-esteem and confidence issues

You are jealous of me and taking it out on me

But like air I Rise

 

Fighting for Racism

I will not support racism

No matter what race you are

It is evil

Our peoples fight hard

For there freedom, job equality, and social injustice

I thank Civil Rights Leaders for our freedom

 

Voice of an Angel 

I sing like an angel

I record my voice

To hear the sound of my voice

 

Spreading my Wings

I graduate high school

I get into college

I go to my dream school

I'm meeting new peoples

 

Witness a Christmas Miracle

When I was little girl

I wanted this doll

I told Santa Clause

I woke up one morning and saw the doll 

 

Family Is All You Got

Nobody is not gonna have your back like your family

Family is like a circle 

Connection never gonna ends

It will breaks

You can still keep your tight knit family together

 

I AM A DREAMER

I dream of owning my own business

I AM SOMEBODY

I hear the whispers

I hear the laughing

I am not like everybody else

Knocking notebooks out of my hands

Kicking backpacks

Spreading rumors that is not true about you

Want to fight you

 

Don't Take Nothing

If  someone offer some candy

Don't take it

If someone offer there clothes to you

Don't take it

Don't give in to peer pressure 

If they say they want to be your friend

 

 

I Sing because I am excited

They say you have a beautiful voice

You going to make it one day

They are gonna be saying your name aloud

While I practice in front of my mirror

You do some sit-ups

You do some push ups

You workout on the tread climber 

So you can feel better

 

Getting An Successful Empire

When you build a empire

It start out as a dream

It is a hobby of yours

You design business cards

To promote your business

Shouting my name in the audience

I hear someone shouting my name

When I get through singing

When I look in the audience

I throw a signed c.d. to my fans

I be walking at night

I hear the train making sounds

I smell food from different restaurants

I hear different cars go by

I hear neighbors talking

I see cats and armadillo walking in the woods

You go on a dating website to meet somebody

You text your friends

You watch t.v.

You listen to some music

 

I Shine Bright Like A Diamond

When it was my turn to walk the runway

I had a expensive designer black dress on and high heels on too

I walk like a model

I hear my favorite song playing

I see camera flashing

I hear peoples talking

I smile

I pose for the camera

I shine bright like a diamond

 

Wishing Upon A Star

When I was little girl

I heard someone say 

When you wish upon a star

It will come true

I close my eyes and made a wish
