In order for my future plans and ideas to come about I have to graduate college with at least my bachelors degree in education. Once I have my degree I will look very hard for a position at any great school to get my motor going. Once I know I have a great job as a teacher I will continue to improve and teach these students everything they need to know (I hope). After I have had a set career I will fall madly in love with the man of my dreams, I am still working on how amazing he has to be. Then of course we will get married and honeymoon on the wonderful island of Hawaii for a good five days. Before leaving for Hawaii we would have our brand new house under construction so what when we arrive back home we will have a wonderful home to call ours and start our enormous family. Once the family starts building up I will own two dogs. Bones which will be a big fat bulldog and stitch a small yorkie. After struggling with owning one car and not being able to manage how to share the only car we have, I will my own Audi Q7 (yes, I dream big), The perfect mom/family car, if not then a Honda will do me justice. Either before I have kids or once my kids are on track with their lives I will travel to either Peru or Africa to teach kids who live in poverty english and the basics, also before having my kids I will go snorkeling and skydiving. My Future is filled with a whole lot. This paragraph turned into a life plan that I will pursue.

A Visual.
When I look into the future
what is it I want for me?
Now I see
Now I see
I see my family out in the crowd,
Hugs, kisses and another diploma in my hand.
Now I see
Now I see
An empty room turned into my own

September comes and it will be filled with smiles.
Now I see
Now I see
He's on one knee,
Yes! I do!
Now I see
Now I see
Nine months later
a family is finally united.
Now I see
Now I see
A bark here and there
Bones and stitch have made it into the family also.
Now I see
Now I see
The kids are grown,
we are finally in a place where dreams do come true.
Now I see
Now I see
Life is slowly becoming a beautiful object.
Nicole,
ReplyDeleteThis blog is ok... it definately seems a bit rushed, which makes sense, since it's 8 days late. It's a good start, but it needs to be properly finished, with greater effort.
I do like your beginning paragraph - how evolves into a brainstorming session about what you'd like to do. I like how you affirm that you've just created a path in the last sentence. It could happen. You may have just set a major life intention!
Your poem needs work, though, as it just doesn't have much substance to it. Needs more thought. More imagery. More power. It seems quickly thrown together. It's pretty, but it needs to reflect more of your inner intentions, your inner thoughts, and images of your future. Use colors, shapes, settings, the way the sky will look... anything that provokes images for your reader. Take them there. Take them to your future.
Show them.
