Four Odes
By Levi H.
Ode to Video Games
O, video games O, video games, you’re so fun
I love playing you video games
You look so cool with your views
from the tops of mountains looking down on an alien planet
I love the sound effects that get you into the game
Video games, you make infinite possibilities and wonders possible
And it’s so fun to make you video games and seeing others play you. You are so wonderful
O, video games O, video games you’re so fun
Ode to a Cookie
O’ Cookie O’ Cookie, thank you for being so delicious.
You look so artistically beautiful, and the looks match the looks of a pastry made in a patisserie.
You feel heavy and dense, but you still crumble in my hand.
And you look so yummy, and you feel gooey like honey.
The smell of you baking is so sweet, and it makes my taste buds go wild.
I hear you saying, “eat me,” cookie.
O’ cookie, O’ cookie, thank you for being so delicious.
And thank you for being mine.
Ode to Cosmo
O, Cosmo O, Cosmo, you’re a cute puppy
you searched my bag looking for candies
and found lots of candy
you have so much personality
you run toward that toy
as fast as a tsunami
then fall asleep mid run like a dog with narcolepsy
O, Cosmo O, Cosmo, you’re a cute puppy
Ode to Esther
O, Esther O, Esther, you’re a CRAZY doggo
When you see a stranger who is a boy, you charge-O
Then you nibble at their toes
And bite the nose
And then there is a siren sound in the distance
But the doctor will need assistance
You’re a small doggo, though
But you’re still fierce, doggo
O, Esther O, Esther, you’re a CRAZY doggo
