I Am Prepared

I line up my pencils
And sharpen them well,
I will be prepared if you can’t tell.
Cause today in math class I will understand!
And not just give up and draw on my hand.
I’ll ask all my questions-
And I will engage-
And will write notes on every page!
I’ll make sure I get it,
And can do it well,
This way I won’t copy the homework (don’t tell!)
So I am prepared
And nothing I shall miss, cause-
“-That’s great and all, really
But this class is English....”

  • A Space Among The Stars

    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to get binoculars
    To see the dentist on the moon
    And find the next Uber at noon.
    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to float to school in cars.
  • Frost

    Its fingers were hot
    and cold and
    sweet and dark.
    All at the same time.

    Sleeeeep. 

    It whispered in her ear.
    Her petals shivered.
    Its breath ran slowly
    down
    her stem and
    tickled a leaf.
