Aliyah Daley-Reinisch loves singing, acting, and writing. When she’s not doing any of those things, she can be found making slime, playing games with friends, (pre-covid) and listening to a variety of music from the 1960s up to the present. Her current favorite song is “The Fine Print” by The Stupendium. She writes a variety of story types and genres and likes reading books for inspiration. She’s read so many books she could never pick a favorite!
“A normal day, a nature hike / I grab those shoes I really like / And stroll on down the wooded trail / But then I hear a child yell / I look and see a big old fight / He stomps, the noise echoes through the night”
A normal day, a nature hike
I grab those shoes I really like
And stroll on down the wooded trail
But then I hear a child yell
I look and see a big old fight
He stomps, the noise echoes through the night
I kick a pinecone, ignoring them
And look at the leaves, the flowers, the berries, but then
Somehow they reach a compromise
That parent must be really wise
I head back home, play with some slime
But oh my gosh! Look at the time!
I have to do my online work
Though I really just want to read a book
I turn on my lamp, head to my desk
And find some room among the mess
Then type and type, think and think
My patience finally reaching its brink
I shut the computer, text the guys
And think about that compromise
The child wanted to follow their dreams
At first the parent thought that seemed
Silly, but eventually agreed
Everyone should voice what they need
I want to do something else
Not put my dreams up on a shelf!
I open my computer and type
And though it takes much grim and gripe
I’m now a published author, yes
And though I may not be the best
I’m doing what I love to do
It worked for me, and it will for you.
