I'm Most Likely

I’m most likely

To climb a mountain

And not want to go back down.

 

I’m most likely

To say things I shouldn’t

And not regret them

And question why I shouldn’t say them.

 

I’m most likely

To spend all summer reading

And the next summer biking

Because my passions

Seem to be hyper focused.

 

I’m most likely

To write a list

Of all the lists

I’ve written.

 

I’m most likely

To enjoy the moments

That no one else does.

 

I’m most likely

To be known as talkative

But also stay quiet

At moments.

 

I’m most likely

To overthink

And underthink

And think

Think

Think.

 

I’m most likely

To 

So

Many

Things

I wonder

How likely

I am to do them.

  • In that Field

    and flows like a river

    We have something to learn from

    while he peeled his banana

    and ate it in five bites

    and gave us all high fives)

  • The Third Grader

    Raincoat like the petals of a sunflower hangs to her knees

    Glittery rainbow headband

    That only keeps half her hair back

    Shiny pink nails

    Strawberry boots

    Shy smile that makes you feel lucky you got to see it
