To Be

*** Thanx Paula for the help! Much appreciated ^.^ ***

To be a friend, you must understand.
Caring hands, and a warm smile are always welcomed.

To be a sibling, you must be patient and understanding.
You must be willing to give up the remote once in a while.

To be a grandchild, you have to be your self.
They love you for who you are.

To be creative, you must get dirty.
Paint all over your shirt is a great way to start.

To be a writer, you mustn't be afraid.
Mistakes happen. Embrace them, and learn.

To be a poet, one must know how to write.
Expression through words is one of the most satisfying.

To be a student, you mustn't be too serious.
All work and no fun makes a person boring.

To be yourself, you must stand up.
Don’t be a doormat. Speak up! Shout if you must.

Heh, good work! The bit with being a writer made me smile, and the "to be yourself" part was my favorite in this poem, because I find that to be the most important aspect of all people. If everybody acted the same and wanted to follow the "crowd" what fun would there be? I like to be myself, and stand out around all the others. Referring back to the writer bit, I had an acquaintance read a story I wrote nearly a year ago, and even though I now look down upon the story with scorn, I don't think there was a line she didn't complain about something. I was so traumatized after that, I let humans see my poetry until December when I send Meh Flights of Fantasy. XD I enjoyed reading this piece, and good work on the capitalization, but the title should be capitalized. :) Good work, keep writing.

Thank you again for making my day. Sometimes I learn a lot about life just reading other peoples peoms. But I have to say, you dont just have to be a student the speak up and shout, you have to do that in the real world too. Otherwise, you'll be left behind.

You actually used my suggestions?
Wow, thanks!
I didn't think anybody listened to me!
Or did you just have no choice?
Your welcome, I love to help people out.

Sofar, it's okay.
The parts that have no question marks are okay.
To be a sibling you have to be patient and understanding and patient and willing enough to give up the remote.
To be a grandchild you have to be your self, they love you for who you are.
And you also have to get good report card grades so thaey give you candies.
You most definetly CANNOT be diabetic!
~*Grin*~
I don't think that's very helpful, but I'm daydreaming, really, can't get anything through my head...
Well, did the best I could when I feel like I'm floating.
Not much, but, well....I'm bad at ideas, I ask others for help, you're asking me?
Freaky...
The world has come to an end.
When you're done, e-mail me and I'll give you points.
