A Family

No blood is needed,
nor is any law.
When we all come together,
Always give our all.

We don't need any reason,
We don't need to be the same.
We are here for each other,
through each and every day.

With hearts wide open,
we watch many come and leave.
But that doesn't change the fact,
That they were part of our family.

I wrote this on 9/11/14. It was my first day working off of training. I was sitting down and waiting before I had to clock in and I just kept hearing everyone interacting with each other. This just came to mind. I thought I would share.

 

Near the beach I usually  go to is a seabird sanctuary. I like taking pictures of the birds there, but I don't like taking pictures of them in the cage. This unfortunately means that I'm not sure on the breed of this bird. This was taken over a year ago.

For a little while, the only pictures I could take were at the beach near sunset. There were a couple pelicans at the time.
Small, barely important information, my mother is scared of pelicans because of a bad experience when she was younger. When I got this picture, I was with my boyfriend, he had me take a picture of him running after it so she could see it.

autumn

This is a drawing I made in honor of autumn. There is going to be more to it, I'm currently trying to color it digitally. I will post the rest of it when I can, even if it's the middle of winter or another season.

Dragonfly

Surrounded in nature,
There's magic all about.

But with your eyes open,
It doesn't come out.

What will it take,
To be able to see?
For with your eyes closed,
You can start to believe.

Only then do you hear,
The fairies, pixies, and dragons in flight.

But when your lids split apart,
you see nothing but a simple Dragonfly.

I took this picture at a local park. Dragonflies were appearing around me a lot at the time. This one allowed me to get close and take this picture. I was told that if you see dragonflies about, then fairies were close by. That's the meaning for this poem. I am trying to post more things, it's just not the easiest for me. Between school and work, I half the time want to just sleep and the other half want to be with my friends.... I'm working on it though.

sleeping in the treetops

This is something from Easter of Last year. My family has an easter egg hunt in a certain park every year. At some during it, I found him sleeping in the tree. He later told me that he was pretending though.

I still cant find the other picture I wanted to show, but at least I have this. I have a few pictures all set up to use as back ups when I realize I'm really short on time to post.
I'm back in school and it's been raining a lot around here so I haven't been able to go out lately. So it's mostly old pictures that I have right now. I will be posting more drawings and hopefully be getting some of Angel and Damon's story posted.
