Transition
My younger cousin put it best, I think.
"Spring is my favorite season, because it has a little bit of everything!"
Rain, sun, clouds.
Cold, cool, warm.
Melting snow.
Yellow daffodils.
Baby birds.

A new daffodil
I've been buried for so long.
By dead leaves, snow, and the weight of winter's thick, cold air.
All of it holding me down.
For months I stayed stagnant.
Unable to move.

Weird
My name is Leah, I’m 12, and I’m weird. My mom says it’s not me, it’s just everyone else and they’re still growing up, but if I’m the odd one out, I’m pretty sure it’s just me.

Ode to a Mechanical Pencil

Click
I push at the eraser
of my mechanical pencil.
Watching the lead peek out to say
“Hello!”

Magic
Snow is the closest thing Earth has to magic.
Lift your face to the sky
Feel the soft, chilly flakes
melt on your tongue,
float on your eye lashes,
bring color to your cheeks.

I feel sick
Renee Good just wanted to go home
To her kids
6, 12, and 15
I've watched the video
I didn't want to
But I needed to see for myself if she really tried to run the agent over
She didn't

Rain on me
Rain on me
Oh rain on me
I have no shower
So wash my hair
Make flowers spring from my scalp
To cover up the smell

Senses of Spring
Can you see us?
We're buzzing bees!
Carried by the guiding breeze.
Can you hear us?
We're chirping birds!
Waking you with charming words.
Can you smell us?
We're wild flowers!

I Want to Write a Breakup Poem
I wish I could go through a breakup.
I want to write sad poems
And listen to sad music
And cry in the dark
And scream into my pillow

Epistle by Donald Trump to the Angels
I first began in the business of selling people when I sold a strange man in Jerusalem that I did not like for thirty silver pieces. Swaths of people flocked after him down into the precipice of the market.

The Little Light
The spark started small
In a 17 year old student,
who made friends with the artist.
She let it grow in her heart,
and then passed it on
by showing kindness to the outsider
