I've had a nice Christmas, how about you? It's so weird that it was just last Tuesday. It seems millions of years ago. Now it's almost the end of 2007. Tomorrow is my youngest brother's birthday, he'll be 8 years old. :) It one of my uncles' birthdays tomorrow as well.
^I made this sign. :) A year from today, my public library closed down because of lack of funds. So we had a rally/funeral/memorial service for our library today. A group of people and kids march down our downtown area and up to the courthouse front steps. Reporters from the local news, radio and paper were there. The newspaper that was doing the story could send out a photographer, so I got to be the "photographer" I took pictures and I read a poem I wrote about the library closing. So I might appear on the local news, which is weird and cool at the same time. And here's the poem I wrote: Destruction of a Library World of Words, Their time is ending. On the shelves they sigh a bitter sigh. Why should people cry? Only words on paper Behind brick walls Why do I sigh, This humble cry? Why do the words mean so much to me? How can people not feel what I feel? About an old building that smells like old paste That binds together beautiful words In the arms of ancient paper Old
Oh, I hope they have/had a great birthday : ) I'm also glad you had a nice Christmas : )

ReplyDeleteHey, your little brother's almost the same age as LittleLittleLittleRed.
Wow, I didn't notice that when I met her in October. That's cool. :)
