~Letters to Santa ~
Blissful quiet fills the halls all around as the children lay so peaceful in their long lasting slumber. One dreams of the snow fight he plans to win tomorrow and the other dreams of a way she could fight to protect her family, just like the strong courageous soldiers she wrote letters to day after day. The girl was so much younger than her brother and she knew she had years to wait until she could do all she could to protect all that kept her free. This young girl wanted so much to give her country all it had given her. She woke to the sound of the front door opening and feet creaking and tip-toeing across the living room floor. She went to the door and peeked out and right in front of her was her one Christmas wish come true. She could remember word for word what her letter to Santa had said. Such innocent words that would make the strongest man weak. She had written a letter to Santa and this is what it said....
Dear Santa Claus,
I'm not going to say I haven't been naughty because I’ll admit there were times where I argued with my mommy and times when I just ignored what she would say. Sometimes I can be stubborn and more often then not I’ve been very disobedient. My free spirit and anxious on the go attitude keeps me from settling down. I'm still young Mr. Claus and I'm bound to make mistakes, but don’t we all? But Santa, even though I haven't always been obedient I have one Christmas wish and one gift I’d very much like to have. You see, my daddy is a strong man who fights to protect us and the rest of this beautiful country. It has been three years since I’ve seen my daddy and I miss him so. I wish to be just like him when I grow up. My one Christmas wish this year is to see my daddy again. I miss him so much and I know its very selfish of me to want to take him away from what he does day by day but to see him again I would do anything and I would never again argue with my mommy. Well Santa I hope you'll awake into consideration my wish but for now that is all I have to say. Thank you for reading this Santa, even if you cant make my wish come true.

A soldiers words that went cold
told of a story a million years old
standing out on the front line
to make sure they pay for their crime
...

read this book it is the best.
it's fun, it's hard, and it beats all the rest.
it's totally fantastic but please don't try to bend it, it's not elastic.
it's quick, it's fast, and your sure to have a blast.
...

tall and dark
sensuously beautiful
the words he speaks
to me as i lie wrapped up safe and
...

You would never guess the secrets she keeps locked within
She tried to be perfect, ti live without sin.
You think she's normal, that nothing is wrong
but she's beein living a lie for far too long
...

Remembering nothing from my
past
I realize now that inocence doesn't
last
...

I thought you would be there
I believed you would be the one to listen
I can't be the only one to care
I won't be the one whose tears glisten
...

Hers is a delicate beauty.
Some would call her pixie-like.
She had golden-blonde hair and dazeling saphire blue eyes that were filled with a knowledge beyond her years.
She'd held her mother as she wept from the news of the death of her daughters father.
...

The Begining
She was young
She was dumb
She thought he was sweet
...

Locked away in a tower
lieing lifeless like i'm a dieing flower.
Feeling the warmth of the flames dance around me
wishing this wasn't how it was destined to be.
...

The dragons
the witches, the trolls,
and vampires. This fairy tale is
full of twists and turns and unfullfilled desires.
...

I keep on telling myself I need to forget
But every time I try I’m filled with regret.
I wonder if I could have saved you.
I wonder if there was more I could do.

The Best Poem Of cynthia Routen

Define A Father

what did i do so wrong, to make you hate me for this long? your supposed to be my father, your supposed to care, but then again what father breaks promises made to his child, what kind of father is never there. I tried so hard to please you. I gave you the best i could to make you love me but you never would. I thought it was because of her that you never wanted me around, i did all i could to make you see how much she hated me. Then she was gone and i thought the problem would be fixed but the truth was so plain to see, it wasnt only her who hated me. you'd always ignore me, that would hurt so bad, then you'd yell at me and tell me ' you didn't want to see my god-damn face' and that would make me so mad, your supposed to love me, damnit grow up and be a real dad. Define a father to me and all that comes to mind is a loveing, secure man who knows that his children love him and even more, he knows he loves his children. Define a father and sometimes i still try to see you but in reality your only love is electronic and doesn't really give a damn that you love it. Define a father and there's no way to describe the love and devotion, the smiles and cheers, he helps you succeed and wipes away your tears. A father to me is devoted, loving, determined, and is willing to do whatever it takes to protect his family. Define a father and i dont see you.
Devotion to his family and all the things he can do. CAn you look at your father and know that he loves you?
