“The Sunset Pier” by Lemony W.
A serene, seashore night
A pier lit by colorful light
Sounds of laughter and delight
What a pleasant, peaceful sight.
The waves roll slowly across the shore
And through the sky you may soar
On a ferris wheel, on a ride you may adore,
You see the sky, the sunset, their splendor.
Some gaze up at the night sky
Some stroll across the pier, looking at all the games to try
Some walk right by
Some cannot decide what catches their eye.
The silent splendor of the night
The disappearing golden light
What sights to see, on the left and on the right,
The poems that you can write
About the beautiful night.
“The Life of a Snail” by Lemony W.
Be patient, this is your world.
You do not own the world, but those who do will not push you around.
Be observant, vigilant, sharp.
You may be small, but you are durable, determined, defiant.
Be unafraid–
Predators may peck at you, but you are smarter than them.
Perhaps you are not fast,
perhaps you do not rule the world,
perhaps seasons will have passed without you having done much,
perhaps you are the predator, not the prey
But you are endurant.
You are a snail.
