I've been tagged - Priorities

I was tagged by a blogging friend of mine, and I'm not following all the rules, or tagging anyone. (sorry!)
Six Random Things about Me
1. People have said I remind them of a bird.
2. I love to jump rope.
3. I plan on getting my R.N.
4. I'm eating yogurt
5. my favorite color is blue. Sky blue, deep blue, ocean blue, jewel blue, royal blue, light blue, baby blue, teal-blue, etc.
6. I want to visit Mexico, Italy, Rome, and Africa
7. I hate bananas


I was doing my English homework today and had to write a poem - this is what came out:
Piano
Ivory keys, ebony souls
Deep and striking. Each one's role
Vital. Lightly haunting,
Dark, they go. Taunting
Now, gleeful next. Manipulated
Abbreviated, belated, concatenated
At the whim of him
Who plays the song.

I really like it! Normally I dislike the results of my poet-ical efforts. =P My favorite line is, "Manipulated, abbreviated, belated, concatenated....." I didn't know "concatenated" was a word before today, when I was searching for "-ated" words. It means to connect or link in a series or chain. I thought it was perfect for the context of the poem, because the word has a wonderful sound to it, and the meaning is just perfect for the poem.

In youth group lately we've talked a lot about priorities. I have to work on keeping mine straight, and pulling God back to the top. Devotions are getting back to where they belong. I'm gonna start working on a Titus study I have. =)

In other news, life is good! =P
