I feel like a fraud
What is real and what is not
Am I the only one
Please share this burden with me
We are not alone in this…

Longing for friendship
Wishes bloom in the heart’s song
A bond yet to be
I swear that it is out there
Be true to yourself, you’ll see…

Oh, the candy tootsie rolls, so sweet and chewy,
A treat that always puts me in a good mood.
With flavors like chocolate and cherry red,
I could eat them all day, no need to be fed.
Their wrappers crinkle as I open them up,
A burst of joy in a little cup.
I savor each bite, each sticky chew,
Tootsie rolls, oh how I love you.
In the palm of my hand, a little delight,
A sugary treat that brings me to new heights.
So simple yet so satisfying,
Tootsie rolls, you are truly mesmerizing.
From Halloween bags to movie nights,
You always bring me such delight.
On the candy tootsie rolls, I rely,
To satisfy my sweet tooth, oh how I sigh.
So here’s to you, my candy friend,
On you, I can always depend.
To bring a smile to my face,
And to make the world a sweeter place.

There once was a chubby young miss
Whose dream was pure bliss
To be popular and adored
By all those she adored
But unique she was, true as a kiss
Her laughter bubbled like a stream
Her kindness a radiant beam
But the girls at school
Were awfully cruel
Mocking her size, so mean
She tried to fit in, oh how she tried
But her uniqueness could not hide
Her love for books and art
Set her apart
But still, she yearned to be by their side
One day she decided no more
To change who she was at her core
With confidence and grace
She embraced her own space
And in that, she found so much more
For the boys and girls soon saw
Her true beauty, without flaw
Unafraid to be herself
She found a wealth
Of friends who loved her for all
Now the chubby girl who was once shy
Shines bright, reaching for the sky
Her uniqueness, her power
In every single hour
She’s popular, not just to comply
So remember, my dear, be true
To yourself, always be you
For your uniqueness is beauty
A gift, not a duty
Cherish it, let it shine through
M.A.D.
In the open sky,
A kite flying free and high,
Dancing with the wind.
Graceful and serene,
It soars above the treetops,
A colorful dream.
Tugging at the string,
I feel its energy,
Connecting us both.
The sun shining bright,
I watch as it dips and dives,
In joyful delight.
A symbol of peace,
Floating on the breeze so light,
Bringing me release.
In this moment, I,
Am one with nature’s beauty,
And the kite up high.
With each gentle tug,
I guide it through the sky blue,
A dance of pure love.
The world fades away,
As I lose myself in flight,
Soaring high today.
Oh, kite flying free,
You bring me such joy and peace,
My heart dances with glee.
Embracing the sky,
In unity with all things,
A kite flying high.

Three Things Challenge #M751
RICH
PITCH
WITCH
In a mansion so grand and so rich,
Lived a man whose life was a switch.
He tried to impress with a suave pitch,
But his charm ended up in a ditch.
His friends all thought he was a witch,
With tricks that made them twitch and flinch.
But though his luck was quite hitched,
At least he never ran out of a niche!
AWARD
FORWARD
BEHIND
I won an award, oh what a sight,
For always moving forward, never in fright.
But behind every success, I must confess,
Lies a pile of laundry I never address!

TICKLE
PICKLE
PRUNE
Tickle me Pickle, that silly fellow,
Turns into a prune whenever it’s mellow.
It wriggles and giggles, oh what a hoot,
Until it becomes a prune, then it can’t scoot!

Shrinking Thoughts
Shrink, shrink, little head,
Decrease the thoughts that fill my bed.
Curb the worries, make them small,
In the end, I’ll conquer them all!

FROST
ICE
PRICE
Frosty the snowman was quite precise,
In his fashion choices, he took no advice.
His hat and scarf came at a hefty price,
But his cool demeanor was never on ice!

SETTLE
METAL
BRONZE
Oh, once there was a knight named Settle,
Whose armor was quite shiny and metal.
In the jousting ring, he aimed for gold,
But alas, his skills were not that bold.
He clashed and clanged with all his might,
But always ended up with bronze in sight.
He’d hang his head, feeling quite glum,
While the crowd would cheer for the number one.
So Settle the knight, so full of grace,
Would polish his bronze with a sad embrace,
And though he aimed for the highest throne,
Bronze was the metal he made his own.

Hulk must destroy
All your negative thoughts
For you are unique
And you need to know that you are special
M.A.D.
All the bells and whistles, shiny and bright,
Pretty little bows that sit on top of presents,
With ribbons so neat, and colors so pleasant,
All that is waiting for is the elves’ delight,
To press the buttons, so they can be sent,
On their merry way, with joy and sheer delight.
-M.A.D.
Sadness
—
Tears of pain
Not knowing what to do
To end the tears
Why can’t I be happy
Why was it taken away
What do I need to do
To feel the joy again.
-M.A.D.
Settle the argument, end the strife,
No more remorse, let’s embrace life.
Arguments fade, as love takes flight,
Settle in peace, let your hearts unite.
-M.A.D.
