The Shot (Original)

As the camera focuses

The zooming in

The zooming out

Auto focus takes its place

The viewing of the people in the lodge

The colors shown through the lens

The reds, blues, and whites

No one can take my abilities away

I am the cameraman for the day

Watch me shoot pictures (Add Detail)

As the digital camera focuses

The push of the right button to zoom in

The push of the left button to zoom out

Auto focus kicks in after manual focus

The random people in the ski lodge

The rainbow of colors from reds to blues to whites

God gave me skills

One was to work a camera

Another was to be the cameraman for the day

Taking pictures of people in the lodge eating lunch

The Patriot (Bare Bones)

Focus is the first thing done

Zooming out to get it all

The colors of red, blue, and white

Oh, boy what a site?

The image was one of mine

And now, a nations symbol for freedom

No one can take away another's pride

Patriotic is the name of the game

In the U.S., I show no shame

Destiny (One Line Special)

God gave me skills

Not knowing all he's planned

I pray for the best

God will lead me one way or another

In hopes, I follow to show his glory

As the twelve disciples did for him

I want to be one of those twelve!

I want to become a true follower

As Simon Birch said God has a plan

Please make mine just for me.

The Creature (Backwards)

If you ever meet her your jaw will hit the floor

In ah of her bitter sweet looks

She looks like the wicked witch of the west

She smells of odor of a boar

So I picture my dog and I think of the best

Hoping she doesn't sit near me

The teacher calls my seat next to hers

So I sit immediately as my teacher gets mad

I tremble as she sits in her seat

What to do? (Dialogue)

Tom, what does it take to snowboard?
