Lumpy Oatmeal makes me Crazy!

Tomboy Desires

Girly dresses are not what I desire
Hair in place, loving with fire
Has a place that even I can't deny
But, there's more I see with longing eyes
Oh, how I long for an arrow and a bow
Or a slingshot to take where I may go
Maybe a knife to carve whistles and little toys
Think of the smiles on clamoring girls and boys!
I long to run in the woods so far away
Instead girly dress up games I must play
I can smell the ocean hit a far away shore
I have heard many stories and sailor's lore
Waves pounding and smashing against wooden boats
Plummeting them until they will no longer float
Landing on beaches on distant sands
I want to see other far-away lands!
I want to hunt with well-tested skill
Bringing home wild boar that I did kill.
I want to live with a passionate fire
After I have filled my tomboy desires.

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

I like the build-up of images in this poem, aziza. Very effective.

Cheers,
