= **__ Like the __****__ sea __****__ and the __****__ sky __** =

By, Justine Leslie-Smith

The sea and the sky, will never meet  Always trappedbehind hidden glass walls   Reaching,pushing, and trying to be free Flowering like babys breath, on a cool spring morning Trying to hold on to that first moment  But it will never last, for as long as I know

The sea and the sky will never meet  Always parallel to each other   Like two lines on a square, conjoined by friends   Trees and mountains tell the sky the stories of the sea   The sky listens, and wants to meet this long lost friend   But never will, for as long as I know

**__ Spinosaurus __**

Spinosaurus, big and strong Can easily make his way through a dinosaur throng. Spinosaurus, rough and tough Gets his way by being buff. Spinosaurus, boat like and fly Has a sail on his back to get him by. Spinosaurus, found in the cretaceous His breath smells herbaceous! Spinosaurus, a tall tree Big and green, and maybe afraid of scary bees! Spinosaurus, big and mean Very, very large and not very lean!

__ Through my eyes __

I look out and see  The Trees, old and wise, teaching their great knowledge   The wind, howling it angry threats   The sun, smiling and hugging the earth like a long lost friend   The clouds, gossiping about what little they know   The rocks, sleeping a long sleep, undisturbed by their surroundings

They look out and see

A tree

The wind

The sun

The clouds

The rocks

They are blind to the beauty of nature But not me.

And that’s just the way I like it.

** __ Bloom __ ** Buds opening Awakening from their long restless sleep To find a glorious Spring Beautifully beginning A new world Life is gratefully given First breaths of air Flowers blooming in the cold Spring chill Who are we to judge The gracious flowers and their long sleep We humans can look but we can’t see To understand the restlessness of nature you have to be.
