favorites only; cheer me up, okay?

I need good poetry.
Most of you know what's going on, if you don't, ask or whatever.

Just please... make me feel something other than stress, okay?

If you're not on that list, don't enter. I WILL disqualify it.


If you're on my favorites, then you know what I like.


Points will go up, I promise.

    Not on your list but I thought I'd try to chear you up with a sonnet

    Sheltered

    You find yourself within a cozy egg,
    too young to know the feeling of secure.
    You push upon the shell with wing and leg,
    for in your mind you think you’re so mature.

    You hear a crack and feel that you are free
    and poke your head outside the tiny shell.
    The pieces fall away expectantly
    and in a nest you settle very well.

    In time the nest will also seem too small,
    you want to spread your wings and touch the sky.
    You look about and fear that you might fall,
    but instinct tells your heart that you can fly.

    So now you find in your maturity,
    that you must make your own security.
