Daffodils Blooming in a Pot
It's still overcast. Water puddles on the sidewalk and turns brown. A plastic fork, a paper napkin, a potato chip bag (all curiously starting with the letter P) glow up at me like zombies from under the murky water. I can't definitively remember the last time it rained. But it must have been recent and it must have been often.
That's winter. A bland resignation towards gloomy weather. You expect it. And that's fine.
Then one morning you are grabbing breakfast, and there smiling into your retina, are daffodils blooming in a pot. The yellow is so bright it seems impossible. The heavy gray air will suffocate it out. But the next morning, the daffodil is still there. There and bigger even, with a little sister blooming beside it.
It's spring and I never get tired of it because it makes me proud to be alive.
Is it queer that I should feel such an affinity for all things decidedly natural, as I am by nature of my genesis, entirely un-natural? I suppose appreciation for life is innate in anything alive. No matter how it was created. Or maybe, I've just been almost-dead too many times not to relish living.
Fly on,
Fang

aw, honestly you're such a poet. good luck where ever you guys are!
And you say you don't write depressing poetry!
Angel (no the one in the book)
I totally agree with you Fang! I'm so glad spring has finally sprung! Oh and by the way, you are definitely NOT queer
I just watched the video on the American Website again and got goosebumps, it is so creepy!
Angel(not the one in the book)
that was very deep fang. and i definitely am glad it is spring.
im one of the first comments, at least it says i am! yay! xD
-kaitlyn
That was truly beautiful. YYou should write poetry, Fang. You'd be like the Edgar Allen Poe or the Dr. Seuss of Flying Bird Kids. Do you suck people's blood? Is that your new super-power? Super-awesome vapireness? That would be so cool. I think vampires are sexy and Max does too...;)
That was deep. And where are you?? AHH!
Very poetic, Fang. I understand enough, but I think I might understand more if I was in your shoes... which I don't (no offense).
~Ani
Nice. You could write poetry.
i wish it were like that here in maine, my entire driveway is mud. no joke, the mud is up to the hubcaps on my brother's f-150, if that tells you anything. if we're lucky we will see green grass by maybe june 30, yeah we still have like 4 feet of snow in our yard.
Ah, poetry is a beautiful thing. Well said, Fang! Well said indeed. Fly safely, love you all and praying for you! And post some more pictures!
;) The Mii Maker ;)
P.S. DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT othersideofride.blogspot.com !!!
Deep, man.
Very suspicious that all of those things began with P. Very suspicious...
Lol anyways, I like spring also. Well, when my allergies aren't being bothered by the pollen. But other than that, yeah, spring's great. Hope everything's okay. Say hi to the flock for me.
~Levi
Wow, surprisingly, i got all of that! Good to know your not all beat um up bad guys emo kinda person. indeed, i encourage everyone to go outside if the weather is tastefull and look around, literaly smeel flowers and whatnot. it does amazing things to any stress you have!
~Onvrik~
Well, that was oddly poetic. Not suprised though. Daffodils 4evah!!
omg fang my daffodils bloomed 2day too! no lie
the weather at my place has also been crapy but 2 day it was nice out
its kool how you like to see the bright flowers bloom even though you have so much hate in your life
o gosh now i sound like some gushy poetry
trust me im not big on poetry.
anyway good 2 hear from ya
soccergirl alexis
what?
fang you are totally off your rocker. oh well, you're still the loveable, fang. we will keep reading jusat go back to your normal self. this whole flower in a pot talk is really kreeping me out
~case
So emo . .
FIRST POST!
So i was very disapointed in the third book...global warming??? really???...i was hoping for some big i-tex plot to blow up the world or something fun and exciting like that...and by the way...max and fang...you 2 are meant to be together...quit denying it and just be together already...(my opinion)
! Soccer Chick !<3's! Football Guy !
very well said and deep. lol. keep the posts a comin' Fang [and bloggin flock!] lol till next time, sora out >w<
Awesome, I think i picked a daffodil today. It's pretty, I too never get tired of spring and all it's riches!
STRANGGGEEE!!!!i never never ever thought of you as the poet who would write about flowers, more of one who would write about death...or max!!Then again w/ 6 kids and 1 dog w/ wings i reallyy shouldn't be suprised!!!
-marion 2.0 ( now w/ BAT WINGS)
wow i dont know any 14 year old boy or any boy for that matter write something so personal like that. thats one of the great things i like about you fang. you can be totally to your self but you can really be cool like this.
well HELLO SPRING!!!
fly on,
- aShLeY
Fang, do not base the way you feel entirely on how you came to be. You're alive, you're breathing, you're standing tall and taking everything in. You're feelings are as natural as any of us.
We all belong, no matter what.
you guys said it all!
nice. deep-ish.
lol. dont worry fang -pat- i hate the rain too.
do a sketch of the flower. you wont even have to play around with a pic on photoshop to get that nice dramatic boominyourface effect of a single, seemingly nonsignificant yet so strangely meaningful thing expressed in color on a background of total black & white.
oh. && sidenote. OH MY DEAR GODDESS WHAT IN THE WORLD DID YOU DO TO THE LAYOUT OF THE BLOG? did nudge & angel take it over & screw it up? because i like the old one ><
Dude that was so poetic! Wow that was amazing and something not most boys would say or do. One more reason to add to my LOVE FANG list. Sometimes the best places to go are against the wind. And I am so glad spring is here too. Hey ps r u getting all poetic-y and saying all that stuff because something FINALLY happened between you and Max. Because if thats the reason then I'm gonna scream with excitement! Because I mean more then HALF of the world wants to get you two together so Max if your reading this PLEASE stop being afraid and realise you LOVE FANG!!!!
"I've been almost-dead too many times to not relish living."
You and I are one in the same. Except I'm not dead yet because half of my body is titanium and Kevlar. But still.
Jared.
lucky
im just going into autumn now
im soooooo cold lol
but anyways nice poetry!!!
fly on xoxox
ps
love ya guys!
oh yea. quickie question bout Ig: can he feel colors on a tv/computer screen considering it's behind a plasticky screen thing?
just wondering...
cuz you ppl can teach him to read that way (considering the colors he feels are in the form of shapes & not just blobs floating around in his head)
Hey Fang no offense but there should be a comma between water and puddles. Sorry but my mom's an english teacher and she has that stuff pounded in my head. Lol. Love the poem Fang keep flying. Hey that reminds me of a song from 'Finding Nemo'. I think I'm getting ADHD, hope not. PS you and Max get together soon!
That was strange. I never thought of you as a poetic type. Anyways, thanks for posting! I agree with that other person: And you said you didn't write depressing poetry!!!!!
I just watched Lord of the Rings Return of the King. Well... not all of it, but almost to the end. I have to wait for my brother to finish it. Awesome movie (so far). Really looooong, though. I think Sam is awesome. Frodo is too. (by the way no offence if I'm spelling the names wrong. I watched the movies, haven't read the books. I'm planning to though...)
On the nick.com message boards (books and reading one) I wrote one about you guys!!! Just letting ya know.
`~-Katie-~`
where is the real fang, and what have you done with him? What is with all the mushiness?
HA!!!!! YOU DO WRITE DEPRESSING POETRY
BUT I GUESS UR GOOD AT IT
DID MAX HELP YOU OR NO SHE SAID THAT THE ONE SHE WROTE IN THE ARCTIC WAS BETTER?
LADIDADIDA
K HOPE U GUYS R K
PAWPAW [NOT MY REAL NAME]
This post was pretty much jammin'.
:-)
ps.
Yall should definitely post more.. I'd like to read more of yall's posts than do my homework, haha.
honestly, fang. has antarctica frozen the tough, silent part of you?
wow you've really got some poetry Fang that made me apprieciate Spring a bit more
*Sigh* That was inspiring. The whole "ray of sunshine in an otherwise gloomy world" thing. So, I'm not the only who quips about that....
-Rosethorne
That was so deep.
:)
And I love spring too. Why, you might be asking?
Well, you probably arent asking, considering that you just told us you love spring. But either way, I'll tell you. Spring is the time of my birthday. :D
Good luck wherever you are at the moment. :)
-Amanda
That's very true. I also like the way the weather eventually clears up, and it becomes clear, sunny, and warm.
what does that mean
Well we know that you're not in the south. Here in Texas, spring is over and done with and we are well into summer with the temps in the high 70's, and low 80's at times.
And by the way, Max was right, you do have some serious poetry in you.
Very beautiful Fang.
Spring.....ew. Winter is better...Sorry, I just personally like it better....and rain.
But yeah...it was very beautiful!!!!!
~Jess (not the crazy one with all the questions.....lol)
OMG you are suchhh a good poet Fang!!!! Are you going to hint where you are anytime soon?!?!
What, did you make a bet with max or iffy that you could write poetry? Or are you trying to impesss max? Cuz for you to just randomly leave a piece of poetry randomly without saying anything is unlike you. And about flowers? What?
P.s. I am not a stalking fangirl. I just want everybody normal. But i'm not even a girl... so thats kind of obvious. I agre with max on one ting. WHY CANT EVERYBODY GO BACK TO NORMAL?!
Like the poetry. :)
You should come up to New Hampshire some time, just to visit.
--Sarah
Emotional; don't you think? JK. I totally understand where you are coming from. Nature is so natural and many things these days aren't. Why we are draining the life out of everything is totally unclear to me. Cloning, making new spices, and I could name a whole lot of other things. But I do have to say one thing I think they can't change is my sprit. When I think about it that is the only thing that can keep us alive; standing up for what we believe and what we feel. What helps me is looking up at the sky, the stars, all of that just makes me feel free. I can’t stand crowds. I guess that’s why I like openness of it so much. But anyways spring is also one of those seasons that make you think and just make you appreciate things.
Sincerely yours,
My friends call me Max.
PS. I always say to much when I am talking to you.
Haha, you DO write depressing poetry. You lied to Jess...hey everyone, Fang lied! Let's all boo and throw things at him! Naw, just kidding. Wow, that post had much less of a sarcastic impact then I would have liked. Oh well.
Okay, cool poem and all, but this freakin ticked me off. THis line of a comment from vampyrequeen.
"That would be so cool. I think vampires are sexy and Max does too...;)"
Two things.
1. They are BIRD KIDS, BID KIDS! Have you been reading twilight? Because last time I checked, this was MAXIMUM RIDE.
2. HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT MAX IS THINKING? YOU COULD BE DEAD WRONG. You are just trying to get fang to hit on max more, when he obviously fails. Fang, ignore the fangirls. Same with you Max.
Plus Fang, I was not adessing you in those, it was vampyrequeen. Except when I told you to ignore the fangirls
deep.....good job! i like deep! i know you're justr being u but that would be a deep you, so i say i love. also i know what u mean and it also made sense. so idk just good job and it was moving aand i hope you like the praise for being yourself!
peace out with love, fly o.
~Katie ,.., *wings*
idk, i also wanted to say MAX! plz post! hehe, thanks!
Peace out with love, fly on.
~Katie ,.., *wings*
You so do not soud like Fang in fact if I was there when you wrote it I would of said,"Who are you and what have you done with the real Fang?"
-Treehuger girl101
P.S.- Love ya
I thought you said you didn't write poetry?
I would say you should write a book but that sounds kind of cliche.
WOW Fang! You are amazing! It's great that you show that guys can be sensitive too. :)
Stay great!!
Julia
wow. I'm sorry, but that was a little too mushy for me. I'm even a poet. But that was just weird. But i also get where ur coming from. so, uh, good job, i guess.
Deep. Very deep, Fang.
I htought that you said that you didn't write poetry. Oh yeah. . . AWWWWWW. Though I have to agree with you I love that spring is here. OMG! I just realized something! It's acctually sunny outside. This is amazing. Thanks Fang you just opened me up to the world around me. (Oh and if you didn't notice that that was a joke then you should stick to flying:)
~Crazylele1
P.S. That was really deep. Whach out Max might start crying again.
I know this has nothing to do with this blog but I don't have a blog myself. So, Levi I understand what you’re going through but hold in life can have complete turn arounds in them. No I am not some old women who been through what you are going through. I am a regular teenage girl. Who by the way isn't sure if her friends know her either and I don't think I know them. But then again I do. Funny isn't it life sometimes. The fact is doing listen to what others say and just be your self. Plus love is real and the right love will not end. Hope everything gets better.
You’re Friend,
My friends call me Max.
where do u gyes have a pot for daffidils and have time to sit down to breakfast
what did i miss
Oh and the guy who posted as anonymous 12 down from the top I think your deep too.
~Crazylele1
I am really surprised that it would be Fang writing this maybe Angel,Max or Nudge but not one of the guys. Anyway I am so happy that it is spring.

Fly on. Fly free,
Avian Fang
Since when did Fang start acting all.... poetic?
So much for strong and silent. Daffodils?
awww. so sweet, I was expecting to see someone elses name (no 'fence) at the bottom. it just seems...not fang-ish for some reason to me.
~~DraugSarn
ps.i find it queer that you used 'queer' in your post given most of your readers mentallity. ^_^
How poetic Fang. I didn't know you had it in you. I like spring too though. Its actually warm now.
~m
Nice poetry...it makes me smiley!!! Hee I love daffodils!!!
Fly Away
Shay & Nike
yup, you're a poet and you didn't even know it.
The boys got soul! U should write more poetry Fang.
Uhhh.. Hun you feeling alright? Max give ya valium because thats what you just reminded me of. but spring is cool.
XOXO ~Fallen Angel~
Wow, that was really poetic. Nice work. Pretty words.
...Uhmm... okay then...?
Um.... wow. I honestly thought this was Iggy or Max's work. I never thought this would be yours!
WOWZERS!
That was awesome! And so very true. (All though I can't really disagree or agree on the un-natural part, since I seem to be 100% human)
:D
Good job! Writing is awesome, isn't it?
Yeppers.
That brightened up my stressful afternoon of Romeo and Juliet term papers and algebra homework!
Whoot!
-Peace to the outs
Kaila Nicole
it's spring!
oh i thought i'd let u know i'm rereading all the books.
the bookworm
^_^ BYE!!
ttyl
poetic...
and really depressing...
Still waiting for a response, but I guess you get a lot of messages.
Please comment my blog. In case you didn't get my earlier message, My name is Luvian. The whitecoats at Itex crossed my DNA with wolf and bird DNA. I would like to talk to you and the flock.
yeah i love spring too :)
I feel that way right now too. Think spring!! <3 You're amazing, Fang! Fly on!
Pretty. lol
Though I'm sure you'd rather me say your writing is something less weird, but that wasn't very masculine. :p
You're my favorite!
I got a new dog last Thursday, and I'm glad he can't talk, like total. He seems like he would have way too much to say. :/
<3
wow that scared me when you said QUEER well until i got it the second time i read it ok look i have this list of thinks you have to see on youtube
charlie the unicorn
flight of the conchords hiphopapotamuas vs rymenoserus

mride**luvr

mride**luvr
That was very poetic. : )
oh wow, that was amazing and,like everyones saying, poetic, i love it <3 keep it coming, i always look forward to reading your posts... love yah!
that was fully so nice and poetical
Beautiful. Not quite poetry. But still beautiful all the same. And I completely agree. What kind of sick world would this be if there weren't dafodils to lighten our hearts? Send my admiration to the rest of the flock!
~Lothere
1 ur not queer. 2 i love spring 2! -_- 3 nice! very poetic. ur really good.
Ummm. How old are y'all. I mean, don't you know that you really aren't talking to Fang? He is a book character. Stop smelling the roses and get your head out of the clouds.
I didn't know a mutant who has been through SO much could right such beautiful poetry!!!!!!!! ;) Good luck guys
Your #1 FAN!!!!!!!
Though that may be poetic, it's not a poem. It's just stating the facts that spring is incredible. Daffodils rule.
Was that actual emotion fang? Wow. Someone's starting to get feelings. Anyway, love ya
Fly strong, fly far
~Dizzy
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
that was so good, fang
(now every girl who wasn't already in love with u officially is.)
fly on babyy
sabrina
Agreed. ;-)
I'm in the middle of spring right now. I don't see how anyone can't hate it though. People who say that sunshine is like heaven, apparently never danced in the rain. ;-)
Be safe, and fly on whereever you are
~Amanda
P.S. Whoever knew you had that emotional poet inside of you ;-)
Very deep Fang good luck wherever you are. I live in Bama and im sooooooooo glad spring iz here!
How poetic. I enjoyed that; keep 'em coming Fang ;).
-skims comments- Hmm... I love how people take that in on so many different levels.
its your part of human. all humans are fascinated with life. the fact that they can create and destroy is amazing. but while the focus on death they are fascinated by destruction.
with you fascinated by life, and willing to create... it shows good things about you fang.
the impossible is possible -curezen
Fang, you're emo. Admit it.
Come on. You totally know you are.
-Steven
--othersideofride.blogspot.com
lolz very awnsome fang keep the poetry rockin!~
Luvin u guys~
*Caity
Fang, your not queer. i think you have a very poetic side though. its pretty kool. the other thing is i think you REALLY like daffodils. lol, plants are awsome, and no i'm not a nature freak.
I completely understand what you mean Fang. I haven't yet seen a flower, but I was able to wear my spring coat today! Keep smiling, but don't get distracted from saving the world. Good poetry.
Fly high!
-Emma
Oooo Daffodils are my favorite. There seem to be hundreds blooming out in my yard and everytime I look out the window I smile. I can't believe the wonderful weather we're having and I won't stop spending time outside.
Nice "poetry" Fang!
Wishes of Luck and Much Love,
Ree
I have a slightly weird feeling that something BAD is going to happen soon. Call it a hunch. Iggy, Have you ever thought about taking up an instrument? I mean, it wouldn't be too hard. Even though, mostly, you wouldn't have time too. Message me back.
You have a way with words Fang. Spring rocks! it helps people to wake up from our winter naps and be ready to attack anything that come our way.
luv ya,
Triple A
Fang,
Wait, i thought you didn't write depressing poetry. Hey, by the way, i want to be a writer, can you give me some tips.
-Skylar
i have a question for max. are you blond or brunette? Cause in the book(s)or on the blog you say your hair is brunette. yet on the books cover "you" are blond. which is it? is it just to confuse the more stupid people who are trying to get ahold of you or what? thanks
alanna
It would a been more romantic if they were roses in a pot and you took one and gave it to Max
Aww, Fang, that was so sweet! I wish I could be there with you guys, wherever you are; Spring hasn't fully sprung here yet XD
Love you guys (Esp. Iggy ^^), and FLY ON!!
Silver
wow, that was very poetic. it really captures spring though. although where i am, it's not quite spring yet. it was snowing during our spring break, which i find a bit bothersome. this is supposed to be the time when the sun is coming up and bringing all this joy and stuff with it. not gloom and doom. anyway, i'll just stop ranting now and leave.
molly
...y did u write a poem?not that its a crime to write a poem.but seriously.a poem????well, love ya all!post soon.
Wow, that was very poetic! (and as i read the other comments, i feel very unoriginal...) but that does seem like a good thing to comment about. I love spring too. I love the trees when they are budding, i think it's beautiful. my brother is allergic to the blooming though. so i guess with beauty comes pain. (and now i'm feeling extremely unoriginal again. sigh)
Okay I have some hopefully good advice for max. I don't know about other people but I'm getting tired of Max running away from fang. (I'm sure he is to.) You guys obviously like each other. Don't try to deny it cause' you'll just embarass yourself Max. If you didn't like each other, I'm pretty sure it would have turned into a fist fight already. (If it hasn't already.) Just trust your self and trust him. If you don't have any idea what your doing,well then you'll only have joined all of the non bird people who don't have any idea what their doing. Sometimes you just have to try things out. It won't kill you. Oh, and no I do not read the stupid teen magazines that give advice like the above. I'm just finding things out for myself and I figured I'd pass it on. There is a quote that goes:
"Love is like a battle. If you win, you lose." Think about it and love will make a bit more sense. :)
Alanna
Beautiful..brings a tear to the eye it really does...but don't you have a world to save!?!?! xD I'm just kidding!!
Bought The Final Warning today and I just finished it! You guys rock and I'm with Angel...I want a penguin!
By the way you guys gotta come back to England! Drop in on Reading Fest xD
And Max...make up your mind girl!!! :P
Good luck guys!
Fang, what was that? Depressing!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, would you be really pissed off if the flcok caleld you fangaford? (I know they wouldn't, but if they would)
That was really deep Fang. You're an excellent writer.
And yes, I'm glad that spring has finally come too.
Love you all, stay safe.
~Lisa
good luck, good luck wherever you are!
I know this is off-topic, but i was thinking (god forbid!). The encrypted text that you thought were map coords have the same encryption and syntax as the encryption algorythm that my website uses for secure files. If you want to know how to decrypt it, you need to put a post up telling me so. If i said so here, i would be giving away the keys to my webserver data.
Oh, and by the way, it could have been encrypted 2 or even 3 times, so in that case the chances of de-cryption without the attack software on my computer is nill.
Where can i find the encryption software, you ask? Well, the encryptor is on my website, and if you can find it than you are allowed to use it.
Oh, and by the way: Fang, you are not queer, by anyone's standards. That was really deep.
i think that my dad's dead cat (tinkerbell) is buried under some daffodils...
oh well
~Emily
Uhhh... Fang? As nice as that description was, I think you've lost your mojo.
-Orange Penguin
wow, fang, you sound like robert frost or something. but i agree. I LOVE SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!!
by the way, come check out my blog!: www.dragonwriters100.blogspot.com
Spring really is amazing. You're a really good poet Fang. That made me smile :D
- Nikki
omg hello i am still going to go with jessicas little ploy because it worked for HER i mean come on whats with the hostility! All i want to know is if your hair is long or short i mean how hard is that? I guess its harder than i think! ugh PLEASE respond to this im like begging and i hate to beg it makes me feel like a loner. ugh.
Please? oh is Max still being an ass about the whole kiss thing?
But please repsond,
oh and i love youre poetry :]
Katy(aka very annoyed at you not replying!)
Deep Fang, real deep.
YOU ROCK MY WORLD!
If you write all of that just for Spring then I would hate to see you on Earth Day.
Not even I have the patience to write something like that. I would be blunt and not poetic. I guess it's just me.
Maybe you should try to write a poem (but not about what Max smells like when she gets out of the shower. You're 'favorite smell' makes me think of you as some kind of obsessive stalker person, no offense).
Awww, Fang. That was so sweet! You are an amazing poet, and should definitely write more often. Next time, why don't you write a sonnet for Max? That may help express your feelings for her better. You do actually like her, right? I mean, it would suck if you were expressing love to her just to mate or something. I apologize, I know you're not an animal even though you have fourteen-foot-long WINGS. What I would give to have wings like yours...
Hmm, it seems as if you have learned the true beauty of life, a thing that I learned a few years back, staring wide-eyed at an ostentatious person... (just kiding, the ostentatious part...) I like that... I write peotry, so naturally I seem to understand such things, even if I'm only 11. Anyways, maybe having had this experience happen to you has opened up a new door. (When one door closes, another opens. Wonder what door closed...) You're not weird, or QUEER I daresay because of the realization of spring, how the water gently laps the surface of an overflowing lake as the the ice contracts.... Yeah, I'm cool and I know it...
i wonder why those things all start with 'p'... very creepy!
=]
good luck fang!!
That was randomly deep. It made my eyebrows go way up, but it was good! I didn't know you had it in you Fang- show us more of your sensitive side in the future...and show Max a little bit too. Kidding!
From an entirely sane Jess (that other Jess really creeped me out, so I felt the need to distinguish)
that was beautiful. There is seriously a tear running down my face right now. SO deep. So true. SO freaking amazing. But really fang, you are just asking everyone to go back to calling you emo. I mean really. You should write a book... but i guess Max has that covered. Love you!
Rock on,
Tess
Poet? nawwwww... Fang's just being annoyingly descriptive when typing, and thus using up most of his words for the day so he can drive Max crazy with his 'silent-y-ness',
Or what is referred to as "Mr. Tall Dark and Hansom/Dorky" , but that can always be a matter of opinion, maybe.
Coming to the conclusion of spring is amazing, and growing flowers is a good thing to do.
Yes, it was easier to come to that weird conclusion then doing research for an essay, just saying for those who don't understand.
Close my eyes, hold my heart.
<3
P.S. I'm the poet, no one takes my job, deal with it.
Aw, come on, guys. He isn't THAT depressing, but here you all are saying you expect him to write about death! That has got to hurt. Maybe you're just the depressing one, hmmmm
I'm getting kinda creative here... :P
Dark and poetic? Not many guys can pull it off. ^^
-Poppy
I can never get enough of you Fang lol :]
where is the heck are you guys?
oh an dive always wondered..why is iggy so pale if you guys are closer than any of us to the sun o.o
always wondered that...
-Amanda
Yes, it is finally spring. It's definately official; last week my whole neighbor was mowing their lawns, and so even though spring started sometime in March, that really made spring official. I'm just sayin....
Don't push yourselves too hard, now.
A.C.B.
Oh my Fang, I must say your peotry, (very metaphoric by the way), is way better than Max's. You just can't beat a guy that claims to be straight, single, relative age, and completely in love with daffodills.
-relbbircs
aw, Fang that was beautiful!!!You should be a poet.And I'm so happy spring is here too, tho it is still mucky out here in NH, but its definetly getting warmer!!!Fang, hon, you are the farthest thing from queer!!<3 ya Fang ;)!!(and yes, i did say hon!!hehe!)
~BIG FAN~
wow Fang!
didnt know you could write like that.
hey now people cant say that u write deppressing poetry! i mean it's about spring coming, and a daffodil blooming.
hope the flocks safe.
fly on,
>Manda
wow, that was deep , and why dose everyone think you write depressing poetry??And i'm pretty sure your not queer. I hope. Keep on postin!!
that was so sweet and awesome. i love it. i know how you feel too.
awww, so poetic! I think that because u are unnatural, u envy or like things that are natural because they show that the world isnt completely screwed.
i <3 spring too!
Luv ya!
~Fanggurly
Aww, Fang, you're so deep! heeheeheee, this is to distill the emo thing isn't it?? lol. anyway, nice to see a "sensitive Fang" side =D

Fang, I'd LOOOOVE it if you could read my Fanfiction =D it's called "Ari's Return, while others are missing" =D My FF name is Symeria, just like it's gonna say on this message.
ANYWAY,
Where are you guys? You obviously aren't on the run if you can be watching daffodils grow! lol. Update asap!! =D
Anything is possible with six bird kids and a talking dog that is starting to grow wings..lol
you guys rock!!!!
FANG your poetry is really good..have you ever thought of sharing that to max or would she be to creeped out....
~KEEP FLYING
Very deep fang. Wish I could have this kind of inspiration for the poetry I have to write for english class. If only...
That's nice! I don't think the reason for your appreciation matters, it's just that u do.
U know where 2 find me.
-Ellie
Well.
I had to say that I really enjoyed reading that.
=]
It made my day.
Wow, very poetic. :)
I am also happy is is finaly spring. Were you trying to write poetry there? Your such a poet.
~Shadow~p.s. poetry rocks!
I am glad you guys are getting some sunlight! In Spokane its always dark and icky. Today one second your frozen but dry and the next your being drenched in a hailstorm!

That was so deep...and poetic...
Awesome.

uhh...Fang, you may not want to use the word queer as people usually associate it with gay (unless that is what you meant). You might want to stick with just "weird" or "odd" or "strange".
-Sgt Supaman
hmmm this is different
hey fang what style is your hair these days? is it like hawt or rawkin? or both?
WOW! that was really deep!
Nice poetry! you should publish a book or something! ;)
Keep Flying Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge,Gazzy,Angel

I love spring. It is the time of year when it's easy to like living.
WOW! that was so deep. and well writen.
fly on
Wow a poet. who knew.
Spring is a good time. it signals rebirth. if only, huh?
Hi
I think you should get better with one another to survive.
You should go everywere together(not the restroom).
Bye and fly.
This is exactly WHY we need to help the earth,
to preserve its beauty. If we dont start NOW the earth will heat up, and those Daffodils will whilt and die away. The precious land that we take for granted will be a legend to our children and our children's children. Look at the way the trees branches are all at different angles, look at the way the sun hits the water perfectly, think of the way a fresh breeze can make your day, isn't this motivation enough? Together we can save this planet!
Oh and Fang i think that everything natural has a purpose and maybe yours is to spread the word and warn us about what we are doing to our home. Love is natural, and the amount of love you have for the flock is tremendous. ALSO the deeper love you have for Max and the deeper love she has for you might be the most natural thing ever. So no Fang, you are not unnatural your here for a reason which includes saving our planet, home of all nature.
PEACE LOVE GREEN!

P.S random crazy fan moment, but Fang i heard you were a scorpio, SO AM I! and guess what im 14 too! It would be so awesome if your birthday was close to mine
mine is: October 29, 1993
k bye
WHAT THE FLOCK! teehee that never gets old!
Who says that boys with cool hair and wings aren't poetic? Dude, that was, like, the most poetic prose I've read in a while.
And I thought you didn't write poetry?
But it is pretty stellar that it's springtime. Hope you guys don't get caught under a downpour!
Sarah.
Oh, and how is total and his new pair of wings?
Sup Fang!
Read the 4th book already, It was SO COOL! nice poety, was that 4 MAX????? Speaking of which, what's up with U guys? What's gonna happen next?
from Alaska and filled with questions,
-JJ
PS:we still have snow on the ground in Alaska (it stinks!)
fang that was so deep. to bad i didn't get a word of it. i like spring its when everything is starting over. maybe you guys could get a restart. wont that be cool to restart everything? would you want to restart your life? do it different or are you happy with the things you have?
ttyl
-Liz
P.S. I total agree with vampyrequeen. If you were part vampire i would love you even more then i do now. vampires are so cool i wish i was one(i now im weird you dont think i know im weird?)
P.S.S But if you aren't then i still love you.<3 -^.^-
So I'm wondering whether or not the cast has already been determined for the movie. If it hasn't, I'd like to go see if I can make it in. Got any info on how to try-out for me?
Thanks,
Tom
wat u guys been up too latly? besides flyin around and all
a random comment from a random girl
O.o
tell the flock that i say hi
are u really like real, i mean no offense but u guys are from a book right...? O.o
Wow You are such a wonderful Poet Fang you are freakin amazing I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
Your Number one Fang
((vampire Grl))
So... I understand that this probably has nothing to do with what you just wrote that blog about... And depressingly, as much as I try, I'm pretty much failing miserably on keepin' up on the ole blog.
But I have a serious question for you, Fang. It'd be totally rad if you answered... Because it's been seriously bugging for the past... Week. Maybe more.
So, I just re-read the first book for about the zillionth time and I noticed one particular part where Max is talking about her paranoia and how she feels that she can't trust people, possibly her own flock, and she seems to aim her suspicions towards you.
Alright, so this sounds completely idiotic (but we've gone this far... Why not!), but I want to know... Are you evil? I certainly hope not... as that would most likely put a damper on things.
A huge, sopping wet damper.
Yup.
So... I guess it'd be cool if you answered. My e-mail is cresent_moons@hotmail.com if you wanna respond there, since I'm failing miserably at keeping up with the blog.
Anyways, sorry about the long message... That's all I had to say!
Um... What is it you say? Fly on?
Right, so... yeah. Fly on.
Mesh
Very nice. I <3 Daffodils. I <3 you guys too. Keep posting xD
We haven't seen Iggy here in a while??
Fly On.
x Faith
To The Flock and whomever else concerned,
You are not alone. My name is Casper, and I am an Avian – Human Mutant. I use the word mutant in my case because although I am part avian, I am more malformed. I was a failed experiment and I was sent to be terminated, but I was forgotten and instead, put in a sensory deprivation tank. From what I could gather, It was five years before they remembered me, and discovered my potential. Some of the extra mutations were in my favour, such as improved vision in flight and retractable talons. It was another two years before I finaly escaped. I have been on the run for about three months now. I am currently in New York, but I am thinking of moving to a different location soon.
Look out for the mutant with the black wings,
Casper
Gloomy or bright? Gloomy or bright...? Hrmm...(O,o) Hard ta tell...
Ya know, the other people who commented made it seem like this post falls in teh genre of peotry, though i object but hey! Go with the flow, right?
With your quietness and usual mystery, I was thinking of something less open and... though you made it sound depressing. You were writing with your emotional side, weren't you? Which everyone has. But, it really depends on howone chooses to display the emotional side, assuming one would be labeled an insulting name such as Emo.
Fang, you are incredible! But, I thought that you had a problem with spelling and whatnot... you'll probably kill Max all over again for mentioning that flaw of yours in the third adventure, but hey! You love her too much to do that. =]
Tell Max I said hi.
Amanda Bridget,
An unfortunate member of the normal human breed, her ambition to be an avian-human hybrid slashed and burned for eternity.
P.S: How's that for poetry? =]
unuselly... odd coming from you fang, flowers in a pot? definatly wat i didn't expect from you fang. i would expect that from total, oh well, not everything is the way it seems(i guess...)
firemage
Um... I don't get it.
That was a very nice poem, and I so understand! We've had nothing but rain for weeks! And you're not queer. I spend most of my time outside, but after dark, I'm on the computer ALL NIGHT. I'm very glad it is spring, although here, it's practically summer already. Soon, I'll be so sick of NO rain, that I'll wish it was winter again, and so on and so forth.
P.S.- I have the smae initials as Edgar Allan Poe.
-Ellis A.
GEEZ Fang you ponder to much. i cant say thats not really nice poetry but gaw, why dont you spend this time figgurin on how to tel max u love her
(max LOVES YOU)
Ok, did I miss something?
Since when were u/Fang emo? And since when was Iggy gay? What r u ppl talkin' 'bout?
HUH?
-Ellie
Nah, I don't think that's queer. (Queer? Haven't used that in a while...)
Maybe you're just a sensitive guy w/ a philisophical mind.... Or not, depended on how you want your image to stand.
ooookay. I love spring, but that was like half depressing and half cheerful! (did you write the depressing part, and Nudge the cheerful part?)
Sorry, but you don't strike me as a flower person. no offense.
Still, I love reading what you guys write! (Mostly Nudge though!!!!)
Wow that was good poetry! Do you still draw? I owuld love to see some of your sketches!! and more poetry! Well tell everyone i said HI!
♥kzbug
i was never one for flowers but i admire your passion. im more of a metal boy. keep the poetry coming fang i love to see into the psyce of sentient beings.
fly high and live long
Wow Fang love the poem! It's really deep. You've been reading the dictionary again with all those big words haven't you. And why all the sudden have you changed moods all of the sudden. First your were answering all those semi-stalkerish and all the way funny questions and now your being deep! What happened to make such a dramatic change? Ahh so many question so very little answers!
LOL YOU SAID QUEER!!! XDDDD
*ahem* But nice poetry, anyways. ^_^
And it's raining where I am, as well. Heh, maybe we'll run into each other. XP
Have fun jumping into the puddles! ^_^

-YoUr BiGgEsT fAn
@alanna
she's both. but ever since they hired that actor shes been the image of max. despite the fact that one of the major points is that you don't know who they are and it could be anyone near you.
Awwwwwwwwww! That's so poetic!!! And not Edgar Allen Poe's kinda poetry. More of the inspirational kind ^_^
I totally understand what you're saying and feel the same way.
Spring always makes me feel like that. During winter eveything gets so depressing and I feel so hopless and just... *shrugs* I dunno but winter is the most dreary season.
Then at the first signs of spring my spirits start to lift and I have this new appreciation for life and the world. Like anything is possible. The sun shining, the green grass, the flowers blooming, the bird chirping, it makes me so proud to be alive. So happy that I have this life to live.
Like, no matter what life throws at me, I can beat it. As long as I have this life to live, and the beauty of nature that surrounds me, then I'll be fine. Nothing's impossible.
Oh the magic of spring!
Rock on and Hold Tight,
-Elie
wow. I just barely started reading the first book and Fang dude your my fave so far. You remind me of my best friend who wont talk to me anymore. That poem hit me real deep. It was like it sang to me. Totally awesomenist. Love ya lots bye!!!!
love Isabells
ExxAwwwwwwwwww! That's so poetic!!! And not Edgar Allen Poe's kinda poetry. More of the inspirational kind ^_^

Poetic much?
Being all about the wordy sharing of feelings (as Max would say)??
2 days!!!!
You aren't queer - or unnatural, in my opinion.
Spring is great, I agree.
Give my love to the Flock.
C&GM.
~MoonStar
XxXxX
And admit you love Max already!! Well, tell her straight. OK??
huh?
i'm not quite sure what all that stuff meant but im sure its cool
Nice to see a poetic side of you, Fang. I read this before driving to school this morning, and couldn't help but smile when I saw a field full of daffodils. And believe me, it takes a lot to get me to smile on my way to school. Thanks
Um Wheres Fang?
- Fang-tastic chic always and forever.
It's too sensitive
hi! =)
u guys r SO awesome!!!
i l-o-v-e ur books!
good luck with whatever it is ur doing!!!!!! =D
luv u all!
- dragongirl101 =)
Wow. That's deep.
you're a poet! (:
*sniff* that was beautiful.
Very descriptive, Fang. You're lucky! I haven't seen any spring flowers yet and there is still some very disgusting snow that won't melt even when it's 50 degrees! At least it's getting warmer...
Say hello to the rest of the Flock for me!
not a smeghead
Wow ! You could be a poet and I thought you said you didn't write depressing poetry. Lol. I love the Spring too ! It's one of my favorite times of the year ! I love daffodils - I love yellow ones, yellow and orange ones, whitey yellow ones, whitey yellow and orange ones. I love all daffodils. You know, here in Ireland we got snow over the weekend, torrential rain and gale force winds. A few years ago, we even got snow in May, June or July (I can't remember which) ! I'll give you three guesses as to why this is
1) Global warming
2) Pollution, which causes global warming
3) More global warming
I guess it would be global warming.
Okay I couldn't think of anything to say this time so I guess that about cut it.
Gotta go. This is your final warning. Stop global warming !
Fly free forever !

Wow that was really cool Fang! Maybe you should write more poetry, no depressing emo poems though plz.
wow....wow...omg wow! and um who said u were queer? u are NOT queer!
nice!
totally agree,
(srri i thought u where max or nude for a sec ;))
love ya!
hmm well that's kinda cool ... i guess !
its been raining a lot in washington right now,last week it was snowing like crazy ... it isnt really supposed to thought . we havent had one sunny day in months . uhhhh whts going on ???!!!
life can change ... we always need to see it the same . im tired of bad changes that are happening in life right now and we the kids have to act like everything its ok , that everything its going to be fine ! uhhh well everything its not gonna be "fine" if we dont do something fast.
Whoever said this was poetry?
ok, that was the most un-fanglike thing that i've ever heard u say...
that was really beautiful Fang. You have some poetry in you! And I agree, Spring is nice, I'm sick of all his snow here in Canada.
FLY ON
I still can't believe you wrote that Fang. You are AMAZING !!! You're a brilliant poet ! You know, you should write a poetry book and I would try to convince the teachers to use it in our english classes 'cos it would probably be a lot better than some of the dark, depressing poems we have to do in school.
By the way, I'm trying to get my school library to get your books for the school. Unfortunately, we can't take up any offers, etc. from your websites to get the books in schools to encourage reading and awareness of global warming as we're in Ireland. But I'm still trying to get them to get the books but the budget for the library is used up ! Ugghhhh !!! Anyway, I'll keep reminding the teacher that works in the library until she eventually gets them sometime next year. I really want everyone in my school to be more aware of the enviroment and reading. I also want to get people to LOVE the Maximum Ride series aswell.
One more thing, since I finished the fourth Maximum Ride book the other day, I wanted to read the Narnia books since the new movie is coming out soon and I want to catch up with the story, but as soon as I go to read it, I HAVE to go back to Maximum Ride. I'm addicted to the Maximum Ride books !!!
So now I haven't read a book in days and I'm going mad !!! I've also got too much homework so I haven't enough time for a book (Speaking of which homework) !! Aaaaaaaarrrrrggghh !!!!!
So another life story from me, myself and I. I better get going. It's 11:30 here in Ireland, I have school tomorrow and I don't have my homework done. My mum just gave out to me so excuse me if I scream again. AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGHH !!!!!
Fly free forever !
