An Ode to my Hero

-

This is a special poem for a very special person. I loved writing it and was so excited when I got a couple of awards for it too!

He gives me courage, 
He is funny, sweet and kind
When I think of a hero, he comes to mind.
He makes me brave, 
He makes me strong,
He guides me through right and wrong.
He makes me laugh, 
He makes me chuckle
We go together like a belt and buckle!
His hugs can melt my fears away,
He makes me feel sunny everyday.
He makes my heart soar to the sky,
He makes me believe that I can fly!
There is no challenge that he can’t face
To me, he’s the best in every race.
He helps me focus when my thoughts are a swirl,
Even when I’m grown I’ll be daddy’s girl.

I'm just covered in scales", said Fishy. "Well, you said you wanted us to have a playdate." "Ok, how about you see where I live? Let's go!" "Wait, wait, wait!", said Cat, "we need to go across water?!?" "Don't worry, it's only a little swim and I made you a little raft." "Thanks, let's go!" "We're here!" said Fishy. "But it is so hot here. I'm covered in warm fur. You're just covered in nice, cold scales." "Well then, let'...

Dolphin Migration

Once there was a dolphin named Diva. She lived with her sister Flow. Today was the dolphin migration. Diva was excited! It was her first dolphin migration. She and her friends, Pearl and Agener, all of them were so excited to swim in the migration lotus. Flow said, "Come on!" They all zoomed off following Flow. They all zoomed faster than lightning. They all raced through flowers until they reached a huge flower. "The migration lotus!" Diva gasped in excitement. Flow said, "Follow me!" Then suddenly they were inside the flower! Diva and her friends were touching and plucking the flower before Flow could warn them. They just disappeared into the petals of the flower! In the petals, they found themselves in a lush green crystal river. As they swam in the river, they suddenly saw a shadow race into the petals of the huge flower. Agener took out his plastic sword. A dolphin made out of crystal came out of the seaweed. Agener was about to attack but the...
