Nicole Ussery Poem
My thoughts
Have overtaken me.
All of the wondering
That flew through
My mind.
Has just made
Me, be unseen by the naked
Eye.
Whenever I pass
You don't say hi
The only word
that could be said was bye.
I long for you,
As you do too.
Even though you
Have gone
I will never
Say
Goodbye.

Nicole Ussery Poem
Here we stand as a pride
Looking into each other’s eyes
As all the years go roaring by
We finally get to see where
We are
Coming from the bottom with our
Roar seeming small
But now here we are; standing tall
As we grow up big and strong
We have figured out
Who we are
No longer going with the pack
But being your own leader
With a nice pat on your back
The beating of your heart
The smile on your face
Here we are lions and here we shall stay.
At first we were lost
But we have found our way
Here we are though
Spending our final
Days

Nicole Ussery Poem
The twisted trees swayed
as the wind swooshed in the night sky
The gates intertwined with vines
that blossomed the thorns of time.
How they come so close
To your heart
But yet so far way
You stand here counting
as days go on by.
But what you don't realize
is that
you have
wasted your
life

Nicole Ussery Poem
Asking you to be you
Because you are seeming a little blue
Carless from life, taking into mind
Doesn't that keep you on time!
Even though you have been a leaving,
Freedom has brought you back to my door
Geese laid their eggs, right by your sore
Heaven knows why you come back
I just open up the store
Joyful you come ,at last
Kindly I give you some cash
Loving the way words roll off your tongue
Mindless to say they
Never did they want you to stay
Obviously they said the rudest things
Politeness was not one of their ways
Quizzing you solely
Respect has got take away
Sadly beating you just so you have a place to stay
Time has seemed it will take forever
Under the weather is the
Vases of the loved feathers
Why you seek to get a hold
Xerox is not in
Your behold
Zig- zagging is your only way you would be sold

Nicole Ussery Poem
The ocean aroma
Filled the air.
As we all do
Is just stay
Here
No need to go anywhere
Because where we are is
What we know
Is
Right Underneath
Our feet
The chiseled
Sand
Burning our feet
The sunny
Shores of Florida
from seat
To
Seat.
All of the birds
Chirping
To a rhythmic beat
The amazing neighbors all up and down
The
Street.
Over down south
In our beloved state.
Is not just the beaches
Or the mice's face
But the people
Inside here
That keeps
A smile on
Your face.
Forever here
We stay.
Beacsue this is Florida
And there is
No other
Way.

Nicole Ussery Poem
My words to you are mighty cool
Of all the things you saved the world
Truth to be told because of you here I am loving you
Heart to heart all the time
Even when its not in the right mind
Raise your glass to this fine toast
Saving the small moments because they mean the most
Did you know you are my one and only
As my mom, forever your stay .Man I hope that`s okay!
You and I are close and that doesn't just last one day!

Nicole Ussery Poem
The sun moved gracefully over the horizon. As it lowered slowly into the deep blue abyss, you could hear the birds chirping as the colors burst in the evening sky. The eyes of people around me lit up, almost like they are seeing a puppy for the first time. That feeling of awe could be felt all over. The happy faces and of course the though of everyone living in harmony, not a single sense of hatred or dislike, just the feeling of forgiveness and acceptance. Of course though, that is not always the case. There is always going to be misunderstanding, wars and a imperfect union. As sad as it is we are not perfect. There will always be conflict but when you think about it that is what drives us to make this world better. Without this, where do you think we would be?

Nicole Ussery Poem
When the wind goes two different directions, where do you go? Perhaps the path where everyone expects you to go? Or do you travel off that far off place ,where people before your time dared not to enter? All these times when you go the "wrong" way how many times do you end up doing something right? As we as people travel down the winding roads going off to places farther than the eye can see. We need to realize to be our own individual person.Every time we go a different way than the person beside us we experience something they never had. In general though, they never will. Stay true to yourself and just see. That is the key!

Nicole Ussery Poem
The black skies poured outside, the walls that kept me in, felt safer than ever. Every day, I stand here and wonder “why is the world like this?” The grueling discrimination over us, just because we are Jews, the hatred and disgust, they all send me into a ball: flying through the air, with the tears strolling behind me.
Here I am, sitting in the corner, taking in my own thoughts all as I take the day away. All a sudden, I hear footsteps, coming up the wooden staircase; these aren’t the normal ones though, that is quiet as a mouse. These ones…they were different, they sounded like heavy leather boots pounding the floorboard. The screams of a thousand souls filled through the air, my heart was throbbing, and I knew who it was. The Nazis has found us, but how though? We have never been out past eight, if were the worst possible things would happen. A deep voice yells “You bloody Jews! You do not deserve to live!” I rush into the middle part of the attic, an evil man, drags my mother out the door. I run toward her, faster and faster, but then I’m grabbed from behind. I kick and squirm, but it is no use…I have been captured. The genocide, pointed toward the Jewish has come to extravagant measures, murdering off our population. One by one, we perish into the deepest despairs. Adolf Hitler, the one who made this all happen, has turned everyone against us. My friends, teachers and just plain old passer byers on the streets…all of them. Every day, while I am in hiding, I think about how it was when I was just a normal child, when I could play with my friends on the streets and not see the rising of Nazi flags. I haven’t seen daylight ever since I was about eight years old, what a wonderful sight it was!
