The dog's tree


For me trees have lot's of special meanings, and I wanted to share one of them; My grandmother used to have a dog named Chemio. She was there when I was born and was the first dog I'd met. She had a special tree she'd lie under for hours. As she got older, so did the tree. When I was 5 we found out she had cancer in one of her paws. She then had to lean and hobble on 3 legs. The tree started to lean too. A little after she was put down the tree started to die. After that whenever I'd see that big spruce tree, I'd always remember Chemio.

  • Today's Fears

    Teens are afraid
    We worry
    Do I look okay?
    What do they think of me?
    We obsess over how we look
    We worry that we're not thin enough
    We think we need to be skinny and perfect to fit into todays society 
  • In the distance

    In the distance
    Lies a magical fantasy land 
    Where objects talk 
    And dragons fly
    Where dreams come true
    The clouds are cotton candy
    The trees are made of chocolate 
    It's an escape from reality
  • As the Sun Begins to Rise

    As the sun begins to rise
    The birds stretch their wings and wake everyone up with their singing
    The foxes and wolves yawn and stretch
    Ready to look for their next meal 
    As the sun climbs the sky
