The Dragon Cloud

On many a long, hot summer’s 
day,
I prance down to the field and 
lay,
On the wet, wet grass, and 
stare right at the sky.
Watching, waiting as the clouds 
go by,
Waiting for a dragon cloud to 
fly.

When after long, hot hours of 
waiting.
As I lay, anticipating,
I finally spot a small cloud way 
up high. 
I know at once the dragon 
cloud’s arrived,
I take a leap, and suddenly I 
fly.

We fly among the heavens and 
the stars are slyly winking.
They see the Earth so far below 
and probably are thinking,
‘What a wondrous thing that 
girl has tried.’
I swell up twice my size 
because of pride.
We make our way back to the 
earth, the dragon cloud and I.

I slowly fall back to the fields 
below,
And realize that the dragon has 
to go.
He flies off in the distance 
without even a goodbye, 
I wave my hands, ‘till he’s gone 
from my sight.
I close my eyes, and only then 
I cry.

Life

Life is like a public pool,
You can't tell if it's hot or cool.
It's best to just cannonball in, and to trust,
If you don't like the water at first, you'll adjust.

My Chains

I'm held down by expectations,
Trapped by rules and regulations.
How can I be happy,
When I never will be truly free?

If only I would disregard
The judging of my peers, it's hard.
I yearn to be accepted,
But how can I, when I'm being me?
