4h State horse Show

                                                                         Whenever I smell

the strong scent of horses

in a over-packed barn,

it is the State Horse Show

in the cool September, at the State Fairgrounds.

I am having a great time with my

friends and horses

while learning so much.

But this is not my story,

the story is of busy people

bustling around,

stress rising

 like a thermometer on a hot summer day

the celebration of a victory

and the sting of a defeat.

Elation

Elation is like the bright orange color

that flows from the tip of a highlighter.

It sounds like the symphony

from a large flock of birds passing by.

It tastes like a sour candy

 exploding on your tongue

and sizzling deep in your stomach.

It smells like a strong breath of cool fresh air

that sends tingles through your body.

It makes you want to jump to the moon

and run forever.

Elation is like an overwhelming joy

                                                      waiting to burst out into the world. 

Bacon...Nuff said :)

 Bacon is my love.  I love Bacon with a deep burning passion.  Without Bacon my life would not be complete.   It is the love of my life.  I dream of drowning in seas of bacon.  The crispy, crunchy texture sends my mouth a sensation of wonderfulness.  Whoever invented Bacon is brilliant. I would like to thank all the pigs out there for making Bacon possible.  Your fried meat slices of goodness are what make this world go around.  What would this world be without Bacon?!  Life just wouldn’t be worth living!  I thank you, God, for Bacon.  I believe it was created in my honor.  I believe when God made the first pig of the universe, he thought to himself, “I shall make this pig in order to bare Bacon for my beloved Christine.”  Therefore along came the pig and later Bacon.  And that is why my taste buds live a happy and flourishing life.  If only we lived in a world where everything was composed of Bacon.  Then I would be set for life.  Although everything under my possession would not last long, it would still be amazing.  The key to my heart is Bacon.  Bacon is my best friend.

Dear Bacon,

     I love you. 

Love,

    Christine
