Rhyme Writin’

To the tune of the Fresh Prince of Bel Air’s opening theme song:

Right here I’ma tell you
a little about
How I turned a bad ordeal
into a better outcome

So just for a minute
please gimme your ear
And I’ll expand on this topic
that later in life became so clear

… . . .. . . …. . . … … . . … . . . …………..
IN Bonney Lake Washington
from 3 years old I was raised
On the soccer fields and schoolyard
I spent the majority of my days
Readin’ and writin’ and feedin’ my brain
Often runnin’ soccer drills
so my skills I did train
Along the way I became a target for the mean girls…
Why?
I don’t know.
But those evil little envious ones labeled me a hoe!
My parents said I had to stick it out
and in time I would see it was no big deal…
So I used my intelligence, started college at 16,
gave dueces to the highschool drama
like “yeah, it’s been real.”
….. …. … … … . .. . …. … …. …. …. … . .. … .. …. . … .. . . .. . . .
I got my driver’s license my first time through I did pass
And my daddy bought me an old Ford Tempo
to get me to and from class
I still played soccer for my highschool’s varsity team
But spent my school days on my college campus
I was living the dream!
… … . .. . .. .. … .. .. .. … . . . . . .. . ..
I ended up getting my diploma from my college rather than highschool
To bypass the extra requirements to graduate
added after 12 years we’d already grueled!!
And I would never wish harm on anyone
but find it quite funny:
The meanest mean girl failed to graduate
and because of her cruelty
I had a headstart to my college degree!!!


<<Maybe a little bit of irony to be seen πŸ˜‰ >>

the ORIGINAL female role models

There was once a princess so ravaged by guilt at the poverty and inequality of her people that she became Sultan and married a “streetrat” and took back what it meant to be a leader for her people.

The vastness of the ocean could not contain a beautiful mermaid princesses desire to gain new perspectives to the enormity of giving up her amazing life and natural talent to embrace sea legs and find what the other side of life was all about.

Rather than complain and cause her father any extra strain this beautiful maiden made friends with the most unlikely of creatures and sang her troubles away until her true beauty was seen and brought to light.

Who needs to be the most beautiful of all when you’ve got seven little men protecting your true beauty even while you sleep all with their set of quirks that this royal lady made sure to show them the beauty in.

Lost in the fantasies in her head and all the books she reread the bell of the ball not only tamed a beast but gave purpose to an entire household caught in a curse and reminded us all each of us is important even the smallest piece.

And the new days role models work it ladies!!!
