Gold by James Aitchison

I found gold,

at the end of the day.

I found gold,

more than I could say.

I found gold, 

how I wished it would stay.

I found gold,

but it slipped away.

I Spy A Funny Sky by James Aitchison

I bent my head

so far back,

I heard it make

a funny crack.

What a sight,

my neck is sore,

still can’t believe

the sky I saw. 

It was awesome,

all because

the sky was full 

of tomato sauce!

Melting Sun by James Aitchison

The sun melts

into the far hills;

the lake catches fire 

as the heat spills.

Night is coming now

this land to fill;

will tomorrow be

more perfect still?
