Necessities

I need to finish six college essays.
I need to take all accelerated classes.
I need to spend five hours
playing Monopoly with my little brother.
I need to join clubs and groups
to seem active and well-rounded.
I need to sip a mug of hot chocolate
with seven lucky mini marshmallows.
I need to wake up, go to school, do homework, sleep,
repeat.
I need to see if I can touch a cloud while on the swings.
I need to make up names for the colors in a sunset.
I need to learn sign language for Hanukkah, panda, and chickens.
I need to draw pictures in the stars.
I need to catch fireflies at night.
I need to stretch my time to savor every second.
