Poem of the Day: 22 Apr 2005

The clock ticks above us all

The clock ticks above us all
We turn around in time to see the leaves fall
To make eye-contact isn’t the best
When your face faces North
And your feet face West
But it is our right to peer at whatever we please
But when you look at me
You’ll stare at the breeze

Scout P. (Middle School, 2004-5) (p#86)

“Lisa!” said my owner sharply.

“Lisa!” said my owner sharply.
“Don’t tug at your leash!”
I showed her I didn’t care by
looking at her
then kept tugging.

Margaret A. (Middle School, 2004-5) (p#87)

in my mind...

in my mind...
a maze of ideas, fears, moments, memories...
a twisted path,
twisted, dismal, sweet, melancholy

my mind like no one’s
maybe
more
dark, deep, profound.

Shanice S. (Middle School, 2004-5) (p#88)
