Love- What is Love?
To all the enemies at home, to the hated, to the lost but found,
The crooked old, the stupid, blind young, to me!
The unfair the cruel,
The perfect the unflawed,
These from my pessimistic mind,
These from the harsh world, I
The realistic, dedicate!

Parody about the Plum Poem
I stole your horse that you have been saving to eat,
I am sorry, but he looked so pretty and I needed a horse for my training that day. Forgive me!

My Mini Essay on the Poem: "How Do I Love Thee"
How Do I Love Thee?
The poem, “How Do I Love Thee” by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, is a very well known poem. The main topic of this poem is that the narrator loves the person she is talking about with such passion and enthusiasm that at times it seems surreal. Everybody loves at east something or someone as much as the narrator of this poem loves ‘thee’ but people sometimes just simply don’t express themselves the way this poem does. People can express their emotion in many different ways, but this poem expresses the narrator’s emotions and feelings wonderfully.
What makes this poem great to me is the way the narrator speaks about ‘thee’ or ‘you’ with such passion and significance. There are many things that make this poem ’great’ and my opinions may be different than those of others. The amount of love and worship the narrator shows ‘thee’ is something that takes a lot of courage and bravery to represent in poetry, because showing someone how much you care about them can be very hard, and this poem is great to express the way you can love someone.
Another reason that I think makes this poem great is that I can relate to it. I can relate to it in such a way, that it is as if the narrator just stole the words out of my mouth. The way I feel about some of my friends, and family members and my horse are exactly the same as what the poem means and says. The poem says that she(the narrator) can love him (thee) to any extent, all the time, as freely and purely as men strive for the Right, she loves him as honestly as a child is open and honest, she loves him like children love toys, she loves him with such passion that she could endure anything. She also loves him with everything she seems and thinks she has lost.
All in all, this poem is a form of literature and art that has a very deep and meaningful connotation. The words that are used are very powerful and it is about one of the most commonly known emotions to mankind, and even to animals and such things. Love is one of the deepest and most sacred sentiments that a person could feel and own, and I think it is very important that it is acknowledged and that it is represented to children and adults throughout their entire life, because I believe that without love, a human cannot be happy.

Fat Cat
I have a cat,
He's very fat,
He likes to eat,
And nibble on my feet.
His favorite place is the couch,
And when he pounces on me I say, "Ouch".
I love my cat,
Cuz he is fat,
And because he is adorable,
Some people say he looks horrible,
But for me he's perfect,
Ok people?
So deal with it! :P

My childhood is...

My Childhood was...
My childhood was
A green teletubbie.
His name was Dipsy.
He went everywhere with me,
he was also my sleeping buddy.
Soft,
green,
slimy from my chewing on his antenna,
Hidden in a cardboard box,
in the attic of my old house.
Or maybe is he somewhere in the garbage,
Who would know?
There goes my childhood,
forgotten.
My Skeltonic poem!

My Horse
Just that feel,
Like an electric eel
Shocking you,
As if someone’s tugging at your shoe,
You ask, who?
Well, my horse
Of course,
All I need in life is my horse,
When I’m with him, nothing else matters
But when I’m not, my heart shatters,
Into one thousand pieces,
Just being with him, my heart beat increases,
When I sit on him I spill out my feelings,
I do not need any healings,
Horses and riding, are what make me unique.
Weather we need to pass a creek,
Or a forest,
That’s one thing that makes riding the best.
The stable is the only place that makes me feel at home,
To be incredible,
The atmosphere is something indescribable,
The way we are all so close always gives me a sensation,
And also a motivation,
To be myself,
No matter what’s on my shelf,
Weather I’m rich or poor, everyone loves me the same,
Cuz when I first came,
I did feel shame,
And lame,
But once everybody offered me their help and support,
All I could see was that this was my home.
And now when people say,
Horseback riding is easy,
And that all you do is pay
For all your mistakes,
I sometimes feel like explaining to them all that it takes,
But it makes me too upset,
And I will not let,
Other people offend,
Cuz with my horse I do not need to pretend.
They also have no idea what it takes,
To soar fast,
And past,
All kinds of difficulties,
And intricacies,
That could cost you your life.
But they do not understand,
It’s not all planned,
Not at all,
The horses tall,
You could fall,
You could die,
You also sometimes have to lie,
You learn how to live your existence,
That’s simply something that requires persistence.
