My Halloween Costume

Hello, I'm Mad Maggie, the crazy evil nurse.
I'm sure of all your nightmares, you'd vote me the worst.

I never finished Med school, my diploma's honorary.
Not for my lack of genius; they simply found me scary.

Perhaps it is my witchy hair, or my special Hypno-Glasses.
Maybe they don't like my pet, a spider named Arachnyss.

Arachnyss sits atop my shoulder, whispering jokes in my ear.
So if I throw my head back with mirth...
Mwah-ha-ha-hah! Mwah-haha-ha-ha-haaaah!!!
... you have nothing to fear. ^_~

I take my science equipment everwhere I go.
Vials of colorful liquids cast a spooky glow.

"But what are the mysterious stains on your coat?" you ask.
I smile, pulling from my pocket a green and slimy flask.

"It's the blood of my unfortunate lab assistant, Cody.
My concoction wasn't ready, so he got a bit explodey.

But now my potion's safe to drink. Would you like a taste?"
Your eyes go wide, you turn your heel and run with lots of haste.

My shoulders droop a little bit. I didn't mean to frighten.
Luckily Arachnyss has some words to make me brighten.

"Don't you worry, Maggie. I don't think you're mad.
When people get to know you, they'll see you're not that bad."

"You're right, Arachnyss," I reply, drinking my potion green.
"I'm sure we'll still get to have a Happy Halloween." ^_^

Perfect Candle Flame

We have known each other for such a long time.
How can I express it in a few simple rhymes?

Though we're torn apart by distance and circumstance,
We are close as can be, and that gives us a chance.

You tell me your secrets, and I tell you mine.
Talking to you... why, it's just like sunshine.

You're the person I count on. You make me feel complete.
Oh, how I wish that our worlds will someday meet.

Yes, we are friends, and we always will be.
But I wish we were more... Sometimes I can see

Us holding hands on a dock at sunset.
We're counting the stars, even ones not there yet.

We laugh together and the feeling's so right.
Just us sharing the moment on a dark, moonlit night.

Nothing else can compare. It's a feeling I can't name.
It's like warmth from the glow of a perfect candle flame.

We don't hang by a thread, we've got the strongest rope.
It's made of love and friendship, and most of all hope.

We've never clapped eyes on each other, but still,
I know that I love you, and I'm sure I always will.

♥Birthday Poem for Mom♥

For my wonderful mother,
who's unlike any other,
on the day you came to be.
I give you 3 cheers
for all of the years
that you have lived to see.

Bring on the presents and the fun,
because today, you're number one!
"Happy birthday!" we all chant.
Anything you wish, we'll grant.

Thank you, mom, for all that you do.
From your daughter (who really loves you. ^_~)
