Forever

A white palace pierces above a deep blue and cuts against a sky blue

In it, lives a loving family

It consists of a noble King and Queen

And their feisty, loyal daughter

Eric, Ariel and Melody

The royal family is an icon

They are loveable, reliable, kind

They are loved by everyone on land

But their hearts lie in the deep blue sea

Where all the fun and adventures take place

No matter where the family is, their hearts forever

Will remain

Apart

Of

The sea

Always

And

Forever.

Because they are the happy family of the sea.

And Melody, who is the princess of land and sea

Will always cherish her family's history

She will respect it

Embrace it

Cherish is

And will keep it in her heart

FOREVER

*I'm getting the gears your head spinning with this free form poem. You can think of it how ever you like but my idea was to show that the family of the land and sea will forever love the land and sea. Thanks for reading this collection. I did 12 stories because you are only a child for 12 years. I absoulutely love that I got over 1000 hits! I cannot thank you enough for you reviews and that you actually read them. Enjoy the last of August, and until another story bye!*

~Lucy: My best reviewer, thanks for you support and advice. I am glad that you had fun on your trip and congrads on you iPod. We started school a week ago and boy am I tired. From August 14-24th was Krishna Janimustumi. Which, in our Hindu culture was our gods eight day birthday celebration. We have like a circle of family friends and we go to each others houses for the eight days. The first three days was at our house and boy were we busy. When everybody comes we read the "Krishna Bible", offer fruits and Indian sweets and sing holy songs and offer holy water, yogurt and milk to Lord Krishna. We also have a fire ceremony called havans. After the service people sit around and chat and the men sing holy songs called Kirtans. After we hand out the offered fruits and sweets (which are called Prasad) to everyone, we hand out a snack as well such as samosas, pakoras, bhajia, buja and sauce. (Everything has to be vegetarian.) After the snack the men continue the holy song the women set up dinner and kids just chill. After an Indian vegetarian dinner people chill and leave around 12-2am. (So I guess now you know why I am so tired!) On the last day we actually take a small statue of a baby Krishna and put him in a cradle and rock him and arti him. It is very fun and I forgot to tell you! We have to dress up in saris and heavy jewelry and bangles everyday! So I hope you enjoy the rest of your break, bye!
