This is a poem about Prayers being lifted. Enjoy!
My Prayer,
Coming from my heart,
Goes to the Creator,
Which we know most accurately by Love
My poetry is prayers coming from thy heart
And angels carry my poetry to God and the world
If it be your mercy
Grant that the world may know you
No matter how many names you may have
No matter what tongue,
Your love may come in different forms,
Depending on the heart you live in,
Lord, I pray that this prayer be lifted into the hearts
Of different people with different tongues
Of different people with different ways of seeing you.
I hope you enjoyed my poem. Have a great day, all of you reading this, and everyone in the world!

Stranger than Historical Fiction
This is a story about a book. I hope you enjoy it!
"Thomas saw them. The monks were there inside that mountain, in 1095. 'What am I to do?' he whispered. 'The king of Norway wants me to get rid of them and force them to practice his own religion! I don't have the heart to do this-I must warn them!'"
"Wow. You are totally absorbed in that book, Hannah. Can I see the cover?" The middle school nerd she was in love with actually spoke to Hannah. "It's called 'The Rebellion of The Monk-Eavesdroppers'. It's about this guy named Thomas Ericson who creates a society that rebels against the king and saves the monks that live in Norway that the king wants to practice his own religion. The king plots to have the monks in cages too. The story takes place in the year 1095, and it really is cool!"
"Well, that certainly seems like a good book. How many pages is it?" asked the nerd. "Oh, 400 pages. I'm on page 399."
"Cool! Want to come over to my house?" the nerd (The nerd's name was KYLE, if you want to know so badly) asked. "Maybe I can show you some other books you might be interested in."
So Kyle and Hannah went.
They saw a witch doctor there, and he asked Hannah to open "The Rebellion of The Monk-Eavesdroppers." He told them that they would enter the book itself.
Nothing happened. Kyle gave the "loser" sign to Hannah. She nodded.
That night, they slept a peaceful sleep...
"Hannah, wake up! Everyone thinks I'm a prince and you're my sister!" Kyle said. Hannah rubbed her eyes. "Doughnuts, children?" asked a waiter. "No thanks," said Kyle. "Trust me. I know from experience that doughnuts from long ago were dry and tasteless."
Hannah widened her eyes. "And we're in the year of 1095." Hannah's eyes widened even more.
"We've jumped into my book! Maybe if we help Thomas we'll get out."
So they found Thomas. Then they had the monks swap places with the fisherman in Norway (That was where the story took place)
Then they told the king that the monks were captured. After that, well, the Monks escaped in secret to Asia. Thomas went with the monks, and when the king found out that they had fisherman instead of the real monks he let them free. And so they lived happily ever after.
"Wake up, Kyle! Was that a dream?" Kyle sat up. "What a sleepover! I don't kn-"
Before he could say "I don't know if it was a dream" they both saw Thomas wink at them-then disappear. And the witch doctor was gone as well.
"The witch doctor left?" asked Kyle. "What witch doctor?" his parents replied.
Was everything a dream? Or was it that the witch doctor wiped away everything that he did that had to do with Kyle and Hannah?
Perhaps they would never know.

No Title
No title for this poem. I hope you enjoy it.
My harp plays,
In the cold, aging world,
A tune of sadness and despair.
The snow is sad,
Made from the tears of God
And once they land,
Create mourning.
A bird flies overhead,
And the sun has come up.
And everyone is forgiven
And the sunshine creates memories
Of the Hope
That flew overhead.

And once they land,
Create mourning.
A bird flies overhead,
And the sun has come up.
And everyone is forgiven
And the sunshine creates memories
Of the Hope
That flew overhead.

The Great Adventure Siblings
This is a story about the Great Adventure Siblings: Moony and Sunny, named after the moon and sun. Enjoy!
Moony was excited. He was going to his cousin's birthday party for goodness' sake! Sadly, he couldn't find a present for her.
Then their car was blown away by the wind.
Sunny looked up and saw a kind, good-smelling face. "Wind?" she asked. "Why, yes, I am one of the four winds. Sorry I picked you up. Would you like me to find you a present that your cousin would like?" Before the Great Adventure Siblings could ask about how Wind knew about the party, they were whisked away into Wind World, (WW, for short) a land in the clouds.
The siblings searched for a present until they found the wind blower. When blown, you could actually fly.
But then, in another room, they heard Wind talking about capturing them. So they used the wind blower to escape.
They made a magical wind blower of their own to blow away sadness and despair. And the other wind blower was given away to their cousin.
I hope you enjoyed my story. Bye!
