A Crown of Yellow Flowers

It has been long since I posted something meaningful. I have been reading over my early posts and have found them amusing and heart-warming. I just finished reading one particular post called 'Earth Child' It described a day when the earth's call was so irresistable that I spent a wonderful and beautiful day outside reading in trees, dozing in the grass, and dancing in the fading light of dusk....oh what a day that was. That day I wore a crown of yellow flowers. Now I am wearing that crown again. It has been hanging from the ceiling in my room for a year now. It is dried and delicate but a hint of its sweet fragrance still remains as the lace holding the blossoms together steam down my back almost as long as my hair. I wonder when I shall again have the blessing to experience such a day.....Then I realize, everyday can be like that one, not just dancing in sunshine or moonlight, summer or winter, to music or the rhythm of my own heartbeat....everyday I can wear a crown of blossoms.....

It's time to sleep and I will have such dreams as soft green grass beneath my feet and a warm sun-filled sky above me, then rain comes in the middle of the day, washing everything in purity and turning it green and stops just before sunset. I will sit on the roof and watch the moon rise and there will be no cold wind to chill me, no broken ankle to harm me, no sickness to plague me, nor the wheezing coughs of my mother's struggled breathing to worry me. All will sleep soundly in my dreams.....and I will fly up into the sky and look down and know that the earth is a beautiful place and I am blessed to have such a gift....and I will wear a crown of blossoms forevermore.

The Black Plague

I am dying....no, not really, I'm just sick. I have decided that I have the black plague. It's true. I hope I don't die before....before....well, before what?.....well, I hope I don't die before it's time to die....do you get my meaning? It's alright, even I don't get my meaning. Anyway, I feel bad about all you TAKS takers, actually....no.....I take that back.....I don't feel bad for you...MUAHAHAHA!!!! I'm going to go see Narnia tomorrow, and you can't stop me...

ACHOOOOO........

Well, anyway, I must go. The Crucible was fun tonight. There were some parts that I didn't like, but as always, the "It is my name" speech got me.....so anyway, if Adam does that right and I start crying, we've got it made.....

Anyway, oh, I thought the kids in Act Two when they were taking Elizabeth away was so sad....sniffle sniffle.....oh well, gotta go, people with the black plague need lots of rest since they only get to sleep in until 8:30 in the morning....YES.....and have to go watch a movie all day long instead of refining their minds by taking the TAKS....lalalalala....aloha
