Passion

Here is to someone who wants to follow her passion.

A feeble attempt I make

for whoever sake. 

to describe

to everyone far and wide

about somebody dear

Her poems are okay

though I've only heard one she's made

Her passion she hides

on something she wants to ride

and I am fine with that

I have heard of a post 

Fire, Air, and Water she hosts

In her heart

She carries a dart

for cupid has shot her down

The story goes

that whatever her eyes shows

when she wakes up she'll love

but a problem with that flys like a dove

for we have not been around horses for a long time

But whatever she does

she will have her sisters love

We all support you

against it there is a very few

So follow you passion MJ, We all support you. 

MJ, we all support you and as clishe this sounds we want you to follow your dream. 

White Pass

This year for my birthday I wanted to do something really new. I asked Mom and Dad to take me skiing. It was one of the happiest times of my life. So here is an account of my birthday. 

I woke up at six on friday morning. At seven we finally left for a two and a half hour drive to White Pass. We listened to the radio for a long time. I tried to do a math lesson which failed. Finally we got there. At about 10:30 We were out on the snow with skis, ski poles, and ski boots. Mom and Dad took me up the bunny hill. It wasn't a chair lift that took us up but a paddle pull. A round disk goes between your legs and pulls you up. At the top I looked down the hill nervously. It looked a lot steeper from the top than the bottom. But Mom and Dad helped me down. I fell twice on the small bunny hill. We went up again but then went a across the top to a chair lift. It was scary getting on the chair lift but after we were on it was blissfully peaceful. I was pretty scared getting off but I made it fine. I looked down this bigger hill. it was pretty scary. 45 minuets later I was at the bottom. Then I took a class. The man was really nice and it was fun because there was only two of us.  The man was really encouraging and said I needed to work there when I was 18. He also said I was really good. After the class we had lunch. The next 3 hours were spent doing 11 slopes. It was really really fun and not a day passes that I do not wish I was on a ski slope. 

Riverdance

Jumping high 

as if to touch the sky

arching feet

the sky they meet

The drums are pounding

my heart is floundering

he comes out

without a doubt

Voices singing

the joy they are bringing

fills us all to the brim

that filling up makes us grin

The music swell

we smile well

she comes out

her hair flying about

Everything that Riverdance brought

gave us all what we sought

Nothing like those powerful legs

inspires us all to do our best.

Yes, Riverdance was amazing. The taps they made with there hard shoes were amazing. The main girl, Maria, was beautiful and inspiring. I would have liked to meet her. The main man was also stupendous. He fell in the first dance but was up so quickly Mom and Dad didn't even see it. Everything was what I had imagined. It was SO cool.
