Strength

By


 I’ve known all along,

Physical strength does not make you strong. 

It is the strength to ask

For help with a task

It is saying no or not at this time

Instead of saying fine. 

It is taking time to take care of you

When you’re feeling blue. 

It is loving yourself flaws and all

And learning to stand tall. 

It is trying again and again,

That gives us the strength within

I Blossomed!

The warmth seeped down into my cold, dark world. I felt drawn to it, but the darkness pressed down on me. The warmth called to me, I stretched and struggled towards it, but I could not reach it and stopped trying. Again, warmth seeped down, pressure lightened. I tried again, moving towards the warmth; the darkness fading. Each stretch, breath and movement bringing me closer. Light replaced darkness. My soul expanded in warmth. I Blossomed! HCB

Present for a Troll

By

What kind of present do you get a troll? Maybe we should have a poll. Should we get a bridge with a billy goat? Or maybe a giant overcoat. Would a troll like a dragon as a pet? Though it may be really hard to get. A dollhouse might be a surprise, But the dolls would have to be human size. What kind of gift would a troll treasure? How big would it have to measure? I just don't know if I am up to this task. I think the thing to do is just ask. "I just want to have fun with a friend, For a troll's loneliness never seems to end". Oh this is going to be easy to do, I would love to play with you. So we played and had lots of fun, Even after the setting of the sun. I will come back and play again, because I love to have a troll for my friend. HCB
