I saw the moon shine at it's brightest
And the stars dance up high in the sky
And the green, green, grass don fresh dew
And I heard the crickets cry
I danced with all the fireflies
And whispered to all the trees
And I ran down the shore
And through the sand
And waved to the dark blue seas
I saw my reflection in a rippled pond
With moonlight at its heart
And I watched the silky rose petals
Slowly come apart
And nighttime told me a secret
That I shall forever keep
About the magical dance of beauty and love
That she does while we're asleep...

Glitter Covered Alibis
I woke to hear words soft and sweet
And poems written nice and neat
And secrets kept to my surprise
Of glitter covered alibis
But this thing called love supressed it all
A question left for me to call
Was lovely like the moon's sweet glow
And answered the question I'll never know
Love's victory held out a crecendo forte
And told me it just couldn't stay
And my tears created the crystal river
That sent love away without a quiver
But if one last victory is sustained to press
In the shadows of my loneliness
Then I shall curse the heavens and skies above
And despise this wretched thing called love
And poems written nice and neat
And secrets kept to my surprise
Of glitter covered alibis
But this thing called love supressed it all
A question left for me to call
Was lovely like the moon's sweet glow
And answered the question I'll never know
Love's victory held out a crecendo forte
And told me it just couldn't stay
And my tears created the crystal river
That sent love away without a quiver
But if one last victory is sustained to press
In the shadows of my loneliness
Then I shall curse the heavens and skies above
And despise this wretched thing called love
Long Live the Poet!!!
The shooting was avid
Amid the night’s crystal charm
And the foot soldiers wounded
Still wished once to harm
The people were ignorant
As the war still rolled on
And the night cried defeat
Wishing violence be gone
No questions were asked
Not a single word wondered
And the tears of the night
Led to storms, rolls of thunder
The ones who had lied
At once were all known
And the hands which shed blood
Were too fast overthrown
The souls who had taken
In greed and in lust
Were washed out by the river
Left only for dust
Neither devil nor angel
Nor hypocrite was found
For the books of the holy
Were left to rot in the ground
The people knew not
Of a fate so unkind
Believing Mother Earth
To be out of her mind
The armies were strong
But the war took its toll
And no thief could be found
Nor ill-tempered soul
The battle cries echoed
Through the blood covered hills
As guns, knives, and fists
Hunt thirsty for kills-
“A drink for the battle!
A drink for the fight!
A drink for the army!
A drink for the night!
A drink for my enemy!
A drink for my friend!
And a drink for the ones
Who won’t make it to the end.”
But no murder could prosper
No man out to kill
No thief or no hypocrite
No soul of ill will
For as the sun rose at dawn
After the night long and bloody
Few souls were left standing
On the ground torn and muddy
The uncovered graves
Were as thick as the norm
And the fragile few fellow
Who weathered the storm
Soon looked up in awe
At the hill shadowed light
At a brave band of soldiers
Who had refused the fight
They raised high their weapons
Of peace and of rest
And knew none other method
To be put to the test
Their words were of wisdom
Showed their strong battle cry
And none of them worried
Nor lay down to die
And if you listen real closely
The shout is still heard
Of strong minds and strong pens
Splitting mountains with word
They sung it loud and clear
So the whole world would know it-
Long live!
Long live!
Long live the poet!

Love Provoked Uncertainty
May it be known that on this day-
I love you
My heartfelt dreams are soon to blow away
I've lost all sense of hope and generosity
And ambiguity is potent on this day
I've left behind a prestigious trail of sorrows
Each one lovely, rich, and dominantly well refined
My heart found love amid a maze of tomorrows
And animosity hence packed up and left my mind
I fell victim to a rage of happy mornings
I dipped my hands into the fountain of young and old
For now I believe that age means merely nothing
Because love is really a story left untold
I love you
My heartfelt dreams are soon to blow away
I've lost all sense of hope and generosity
And ambiguity is potent on this day
I've left behind a prestigious trail of sorrows
Each one lovely, rich, and dominantly well refined
My heart found love amid a maze of tomorrows
And animosity hence packed up and left my mind
I fell victim to a rage of happy mornings
I dipped my hands into the fountain of young and old
For now I believe that age means merely nothing
Because love is really a story left untold

TOP TEN BEST CANDIES OF ALL TIME (According to Julia)
10.) M&M's: Who thought of these? Whoever they were, they were a genius. I mean, it's little pieces of chocolate, covered in colorful blankets of candy. M&M's are so easy to eat, very convenient, and they can be used for not only eating but baking, craft-making, and even for playing games!!! Great candies! And, the best part is- they melt in your mouth- not your hand.
9.) Red Vines: A much better alternative to Twizzlers, red vines are sweeter, and have a better consistency than the leading licorice brand. They're fun to eat and always brighten any smile! Plus they're always a fat free food!
8.) PEZ- PEZ candies are so simple. So unique. So fun. And SO YUMMY!!!! Who knew that you could express yourself with a candy dispenser?? And who thought of a candy dispenser in the first place! It's awesome! I can't get over them Once you eat one PEZ candy, you'll eat the whole roll. They are SO addicting. :)
7.) Razzles: What candy could be more fun and flavorful? Every candy loving child should think that Razzles are the sweetest and most interesting candy in the world! These little treats aren't just candy... they're gum! When you first start chewing razzles, they have the consistency of regular candy, then, before you know it, you're blowing bubble gum bubbles!!! And.... the funnest part of it all- They always turn your tongue the color of the candy!
6.) Conversation Hearts: Though these sweethearts only come around once a year, they'll be sure to take you away with their sweet charm and romance. You'll fall in love at first bite with these sugary, Necco treats! Plus, their best kept secret... you CAN buy them year round! Find a roll of Necco candies- they're the same thing... the only downside... they don't have the cute notes stamped on them....
5.) Peeps: Another candy that only comes around at certain times of the year, usually Easter, these marshmallow treats covered in sugar sprinkles are so sweet and so cute, you won't be able to resist them!! You can find them shaped like chicks, bunnies, reindeer, hearts, and even pumpkins! Whatever the holiday is... these candies say "holiday spirit" all over them!!!
4.) Junior Mints: Who can resist the rich, creamy flavor of chocolate and mint? Not me! Junior Mints are a sweet treat at the movies, at home, or on the go!!! Guys, remember, if you want to kiss your girl at the movies, but don't want to scare her away with a horrid flavor of popcorn mouth, try Junior Mints! The best kept secret in the world of romance! But shhhh... she'll never even figure it out!
3.) Swedish Fish: Fish? Candy? Ew, right? WRONG. These little red swimmers aren't really fish, they're only shaped that way! They actually taste super sweet!! And super unique! You'll not find another candy like these.... they're SO addicting you'll be "hooked" in no time!
2.) Riesen Candies: The most delicious little square of chocolate you will EVER put in your mouth. Guaranteed. These amazing individually wrapped candies will take away any broken heart, broken bone, or broken antique vase you have ever had to deal with. Your worries melt away as these melt in your mouth. It's dark chocolate caramel covered in dark chocolate... the chocoholics DREAM...
1.) Jelly Belly Jelly Beans: Yes. That's right. The all time greatest candy ever HAS to be Jelly Bellies. No questions asked. With over 50 different flavors including strawberry jam, Dr. Pepper, cotton candy, juicy pear, buttered popcorn, toasted marshmallow and bubble gum these tiny treats are simply irresistible!!! Plus, the people at the Jelly Belly Factory use REAL ingredients such as fruit juices, vanilla beans, and chocolate to make the taste better and more real!!! They make great gifts to give or to receive, and with so many different flavors, they NEVER get old!!! You'll never eat another jelly bean again after you've tried Jelly Belly- The greatest candy in the world.

So... it's been awhile since I updated my blog but I guess that would be because I don't have anything really important to say.... plus.... the only person that really reads my blog is my dear friend Evan, and I could just as easily talk to him directly instead of online. Plus I don't really have the time to sit around and conjure up something really interesting to say, so if ever I do think of something really great and creative, this will be my first place to spill. But for now.... I need something to write about. Until then, this blog will remain among the most boring blogs in society.

I finally was able to successfully log in and type my latest and greatest blog!!! Whoo hoo!!! This is great! However, I really don't have anything of importance to say.... but I'll think of something... in the meantime... at least I remembered how to log in to this thing... :)
