Ode to the banana

I write an ode to you
A sweet yellow fruit
That in love to chew,
Swallow and digest

An ode to your taste
and health benefits
For you shall not go to waste
Not in my home

Oh! An ode to your peel
That keeps you safe
As if to seal
Your goodness from me

And finally and ode
To buying you from the store
Or picking you fresh off a tree
And bringing you to my humble abode
And eating you
For happy little me

Litany Imitation

You are the peanut butter and the jelly,
the cheese and the macaroni.
You are the milk to my chocolate chip cookie
and the water to quench my thirst.
You are the music to my ears,
and the comfort of a blanket.

However, you are not the stars in the night sky
Shadow in the ally,
or children playing in the streets.
And you are certainly not the bright colors of fall.
There is just no way that you are the bright colors of fall.

It is possible that you are smell of rain on the pavement,
maybe even the smile on a baby's face,
but you are not even close
to being the little hand on the grandfather clock.

And a quick look in the mirror will show
that you are neither the puppy
nor kitten at play.

It might interest you to know,
speaking of the plentiful imagery of the world,
that I am the newborn fawn in the meadow.

I also happen to be the blue in the sky,
Rainbow after it rains
and the fruit picked fresh in the morning.

I am also the birds in the sky
and the snails on the ground.
But don't worry, I'm not the peanut butter and the jelly.
You are still the peanut butter and the jelly.
You will always be the peanut butter and the jelly,
not to mention the cheese and--somehow--the macaroni.

Daniell's Introduction

Hello all,

     My name is Danielle Crandall, I prefer to go by Danny, I know it's a little weird to spell it the guy way but I just like the way it looks better. Anyway, I'm a pretty shy person but don't be afraid to come up to me in class I'm friendly and like to make new friends. I'd especially like to make a friend or two in this class in case me or my new friend misses a class and we can help eachother out or just discuss class stuff together,
     A little more about me: I'm a pretty creative person, I'm a sophmore and majoring in Graphic Design. Both my roomate and I have that same major. neither of us get out much we're not 'get out and do stuff' kind of girls lol but we like to go for walks together and that's pretty much all I do with my time besides work and hanging out with my bf.
     Well I suppose that's all I'll write. If you would like to know more or get my number or something for class (or just to be a new friend) just let me know  :)

Have a good day!
-Danny
