Magnetic Poetry and Sundresses on Rainy Days

Happy Thursday Everyone!
    Please don't hate me for being so cheery on a Thursday but Thursdays are my Fridays! (he he he) I have decided to try to post everyday! I don't know how long that will last ha ha. Anyways, today I will tell to you all about magnetic poetry and sundresses on rainy days...

   I don't know if you are aware, but April is national poetry month! In an attempt to get college kids interested in poetry, my school library set out a small magnetic board and a plethora of little magnetic words. They said that if we created a poem on the board, it could be posted on the library blog. So, while I was waiting for a friend, with nothing else to do, I hesitantly made my way over to the magnetic board to create a short but cute poem for all to see.
   
    I think I stood there arranging and rearranging tiny words for a good 10 minutes, all the while people passed by trying to figure out was on earth I was doing. When I was finally done, I left the library confident with my work. Later on in the day returned to the library somewhat expecting my poem to be gone because you know, plenty of students could have taken down my work to make their own. That would have been fine and dandy if the librarian or WHOEVER runs the blog had already taken a picture of it, written it down...SOMETHING. (Sigh) So, the mini board was cleared off and I hoped that it would make it on the blog in the days to come. I was sadly mistaken. I waited and waited, refreshing the library blog page for days and nothing. There was nothing. Until, I checked today. Finally, someone had posted a slide show of the poems!! I pressed play faster than any video enthusiast could have and was utterly horrified. The eight poems that were displayed before me were so bad. So so bad. Not to mention, MINE WAS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND.

    I know I sound angry...hell, I am angry! Someone must have quickly taken down my poem before anyone had a chance to record it. (sad face) But, it's okay. I am fine. It's whatever. Those eight poems were really a joke though...

    Moving on from that mess, this morning was a rainy morning. When I say rainy, I mean it was pouring during my ride into school. It was just my luck too because I was wearing a sundress. A sundress that I had been dying to wear. Unfortunately, I must have misread weather.com because I did not know about the rain. There I was looking like a complete fool donning a sundress with not a ray of sun shinning down. As I sat shivering in math class, I wrote this poem. (magnetic poetry redemption??) Here it is:

She brought an umbrella for the sun, not the rain
But of course it poured all day and brought on the pain
In class she sat with a wet back and damp hair
While no one else seemed to care
focused and covered, they all sat still
while she was sadly, left with a chill
There were raindrops on her eyelashes weighing her down and her legs were exposed 
And if the forecast said it would rain, would she still have worn her summer dress? Nobody knows...

The sun did come out later though, and I was in my element. :) Well I hope the sun is shinning wherever you are when you read this and that it doesn't ever rain on your parade ha ha! Anyways, goodbye until the next post!

You never know what you'll get until you get it. Whatever it is, it will be worth the wait. You are strong enough to handle anything, you just have to have faith.
