Best Familypeople Poems


The Storm

The wild storm rages on like an angry giant,
Yellow lightning bolts through the sky like fiery weapons
As it’s thunderous voice shouts and echoes furiously.
The wind shrieks like a pterodactyl,
It’s icy feet grip the house as tightly as a brick in the wall.
The rain beats incessantly against the window like a hammer.
Inside, the fire greets us like the sun on a hot day.

The rain fills the streets with rugged floods
Driving people out of their ruined homes.
Trees forced to the ground making that spread far and wide.
Big bangs of thunder make people jump!
Lights whisper, then poof, a black out has begun.
Nobody knows where they are, families huddle to keep each other warm.
Shed roofs flying from garden to garden.
Don’t go outside,
The storm is horrendous.

Home

people say home is where you live,
home is where you are safe,
home is where you are loved,
home is where your welcomed,
where your not beaten.

family is people who you grow up with,
family is people who love you,
people who will be there for you,
people who dont beat you,
people you can talk to.

doesn't matter for all of these,
for one will all ways be there for you,
believe and you will see,
that god is there for thee.

I Am An Actor

I am an actor, living an unending play..
Where people come and people move on.
Where I actually have a say.

Sometimes I'm the Husband with a wonderful wife.
Sometimes it's good, more often it's poo.
That's why we mostly fight.


Sometimes I'm the Boss. When she needs a stand-in.
Sometimes I'm the best, til' I start to stress
and she wants to play man again.

Lately lifes been crazy and I think I know why.
It's not what it seems. I want Ice Cream!
Lately I've been on a diet.

Lately I play Daddy. like the good ones on TV.
But then no ones been home and I'm all alone.
Lately this job has been easy.

Tomorrow I'll play a Gardener, mowing away the grass.
If the engine will start and I still want the part????
I might just let that one pass.

I am an actor, living the american dream
Where all by myself and without any help. 
I am practicing showing restraint.
