Blah... Woken up early...

Hey everyone! What does R.J. hate worse than someone bringing something up and then dropping it? Getting woken up by the phone. Oh well, I guess it is giving me this chance to sit down and write.

Intervarsity was good last night. The speaker was pretty funny, and the worship was some good stuff. I also found out about this program Read to Succeed. I think I may do it. I go and read to a kid or help them read, just one hour a week. Since I can't do Big Brothers Big Sisters anymore because they are unwilling to accommodate for a my little brother's new school....arrrrggghhh! That makes me sooo mad. It's supposed to be about this kids! Anyhow...

I decided to include a poem that not many of you have seen since I haven't added it to my poetry page. I will eventually, but here is the poem for the rest of you...

TO KOURTNEY:
I'm sittin down and writin at midnight,
No chance in fightin back this rhyme,
Cuz this time, it's all mine and how I feel,
How I'll reveal about this girl who seems ideal,
She steals my eyes, but I'm not staring at her body,
Shocked, because her beautiful eyes are locked on me,
I try concocting the rhyme that accurately depicts her,
I hope meeting her was a sign that someone divine picked her,
I'm amazed by each word of hers spoken,
That leaves her so vulnerable, so open,
A broken vase, a beautiful face, in the hands of the Potter,
Molding her into a wonderful friend, sister, and daughter,
Her head full of fabulous, fine, flowing fire,
But I feel like I just want to retire my desire,
It'll require me to reveal the things I wish to conceal,
These dreams I have of her and me seem completely unreal.
