Some New Thoughts and Poems

The Snow
As I look out my window
I see the unspoiled snow.
I cannot go outside and play
Like I did so many years ago.
If I ever get to,
I would build an igloo.
I would stay in there for half a day
Because it is nice and warm.
I would play outside all day
After a good snow-storm.
I can still remember sledding down Suicide Hill.
The Hill was so steep.
Dangerous angles that could kill.
My dad still talks about me running into that tree.
Now I can look back on that and laugh and see
How thrilling to get the wind knocked out of me.
If I could, you know what I would do?
I would build an igloo big enough for my wheelchair too.
That way I could roll right in that igloo.
“Where are you? Mom would call out to me.”
“I’m in here reflecting on my childhood memories.”

Bowling Ball

Every Saturday I come to play a couple games at Premier Lanes.
I watch and I wait for my turn.
I learned to practice on my aim,
While I’m waiting to bowl a frame.
I roll up and park in just the right spot.
My mom hands me my ball,
And I give it a shot.
I hold my ball in my hand.
I swing twice and try to propel that ball
To where those mocking pins stand.
My thumb is aimed for the king pin.
I knock them down again and again.
As the ball rolls
I hope deep down in my soul.
“Please let it be a strike with this roll!
Knock‘em all down! That’s what I like!”
If they do not all fall down
The first time around,
I try to get a spare instead of that strike.

Take Pity on the Kitty

Spike the cat looks in the backdoor.
He hopes we will take pity on the kitty
And let him in once more.
It was raining outside.
He gave us the evil eye!
“Let me in!”
Mom says,
“I do not want that cat here again.
He is not welcome to stay.
Besides now it’s nice and warm outside.
Do not take pity on the kitty!
He’s fine!”
Last time I took pity on the kitty
And he made a mess on the kitchen floor.
That’s why I don’t take pity on the kitty any more!

I’m a Believer

I’m a believer that my Golden Retriever may seem to always be up to no good.
I’m a believer that my Golden Retriever wants to be the first to be fed his food.
I’m a believer that my Golden Retriever would lick me the whole day.
I’m believer that my Golden Retriever would if he could figure out a way.
He’s a silly dog, yes he is, but I believe in him.
I’m a believer, that my Golden Retriever, is my best friend.

I Remember

My memory is not that good.
I don’t remember things like I should.
This morning I could not remember what I did yesterday.
I scratched my head in my bed where I lay.
I forgot but I kept going over the details in my mind until I did find the right memories.
I mean the memories from yesterday and not the ones from last week.
I try to relate my memories to other things.
I use a silly word, an abbreviation or whatever.
What matters is that sometimes I do remember!

Elisha
When I’m Asleep

When I’m asleep angels talk to me.
They tell me many things.
They tell me that I’m beautiful.
They tell me how I should keep my eyes on my goal.
They are helping me get better. I can feel it in my soul.
Soon, I will no longer be sitting on my seat.
I’ll be on my feet.
Once again I will be independent.
I can see me now,
Sitting in a regular chair.
See me walking upstairs.
I can see me doing many things,
On my own feet,
It will be so sweet!
Many things I can only accomplish now in my dreams.

Doggie down by my feet,
I can almost hear him say,
"Pssh! Hey! Down here!
Gimme something to eat."
"Gimme something good to chew.
I'll even take Brussels sprouts from you!
Anything on your plate will do,
Pulease! Gimme soma dat gooo!
Doggie down by my feet,
Telling me, "Send down the meat!"

All I Do Is Complain

"All you do is complain," my mom says.
Well, I got this pain that won't go away.
But it will, if I concentrate on positioning,
And sitting up straight.
Who does that all the time?
I've been sitting sloppy.
Now I have a crooked spine.
I just need to remember to keep pulling upward.
But when I get my mind on something else,
Or just plains forget.
It's there again hurting even more, yet.
I think it's time for me to do something besides complain.
I need to exercise and try to regain!

Almost Every Time

Almost every time I try to do something on my own, something goes wrong!
I try to be independent when I think of it. Every little bit I try to do helps.
Sometimes I end up getting hurt and end up face down in the dirt.
Sometimes I make a mess but it's better to try than not trying at all. I guess!
The more I try, the more I can do. So tell me what else is new!
We can't go through life unscathed. That's no way to behave.

During the Storm

Last night during the storm,
My dog sought out tub form.
Lightening struck and he got in.
I looked and laughed at him.
He must have been in there for over an hour.
So desperately I wanted to turn on the shower!
Next time there's a raging wind
maybe he'll get in the tub again!

If I Could Be Anything
If I could be anything what would I be?
I have an endless amount of possibilities.
How would I express myself?
I possess talents so different from everybody else.
I have my own ways of walking.
You really have to listen to what I say when I'm talking.
I always try to do more.
Each day may be better than the one before.
I want to perform tasks but objects get in the way.
If I just set my mind to it,
I'll accomplish those tasks someday!
The problem is getting motivated.
I need an endless supply of energy being generated!
That's what we all need.
It's not just my will to succeed.
It's true what they say.
I have the will.
I just have not figured out a way!
