The First Human To Go Over Niagara Falls In A Barrel-And Survive

By: Unknown

Read by: Brandon Adams

How many daredevils had tried Niagara Falls? How many died.

Before a woman Forty-three Set out to test The powers that be.

Her wooden barrel, Set adrift Above the falls Soon met the swift.

White- crested waves Where other, briefly pitched and tossed Had come to grief.

And like a bobber Far from shore, Her barrel plunged Across the roar

Of History, In  mist and steam, Her little house Was swept downstream

The rescue party Was amazed To find the darling Woman dazed,

But still alive! What did she say? How blessed I am To see the day.

Red As Blood

The fire is red as blood. 

I watch the flames go up in the air 

as I taste the sadness of the people 

whose houses have brunt down to the ground.

I turn back, 

but all I hear 

is the bursting and explosion of flames.

If I had nothing else to do....

 I'd write a birthday card to you 

but send it off to someone who,say

,lived in Millinocket Manie

,and very carefully explain 

that she should quickly mail it on

 by way of  portland,oregon,

and when it got there they would know to forward it to buffalo

newyork,so that the person there

would have to send it first class air to boston,mass and back again 

by overnight delivery then,

 from Nashville Tennessee to Knox-ville care  of aunties PO box 

so she could zip it fed express to your Chicago Il ,address  and someday maybe mid july-a birthday card-you'd  wonder why it took so long to get to you! i'd call you up and tell you,too ......

Sally ride rode

An alley-wide road

Into the sky.

Sally ride road

To an area code

A million miles high.

Sally ride rode

With a precious payload

Out of Earth sight.

Sally ride rode

Sally ride road

Into the night.

A  Friend Is

Written By: Mobi World 

Read By: Mikayla Qualls

A friend is a heart full of love 

A warm place to go

A supportive hug   

A non judgmental soul 

A happy to see you smile 

when you drop in 

to visit for awhile

A friend is accepting 

of faults and fears

Lending their wisdom

and their ears 

Always listening with concern

And Drying our tears 

When we're tired  and hurt

A friend is you 

its who you are 

so warm,so caring 

with a giving heart

And Im so glad,

More than I can say

To have you as  

a friend everyday

Do you often take for granted

Something that is squarely planted

Sometimes straight but mostly slanted

In the middle of your face?

Think how often you´d surprise

Neighbors with your flat disguise 

If nothing separates your eyes

In the middle of your face.

IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR FACE            By unknown    Read By Danielle Seibles

It´s impossible to speak

(Or dance alone yes cheek-to-cheek)

If there is nothing left to tweak

In the middle of hour face.

So be grateful for your noes

Because it's just where it´s supposed

To be for taking all those blows

In the middle of your face.

A Tomcat Is

Read By:  Brendan Simpson

Nightwatchman of corners 

caretaker of naps

leg-wrestler of pillows

 Depresser of laps.

 The bird-watching bandit

  On needle-point claws 

  The Chief of detectives

On marshmallow paws

A master at whining 

  And dining on mouse

Designer of shadows

That hide in the house.

A crafty yarn-spinner

A stringer high-strung

A buttermilk mustache

A sandpaper tongue.

The dude in the alley

The duke on the couch

Affectionate fellow

Occasional grouch.
