The Sun:


The golden, bright, vibrant sun,

shines throughout the day. 

It shines brightly on the first day of school.

It shines brightly when I look up at the sky, coming home to a surprise. 

It lingers on throughout the day, 

even when I run outside to play. 

 

The golden, bright, vibrant sun, 

shines throughout the day. 

It shines when I walk home weeping because I don’t feel well. 

It shines when I come home moping because I  didn’t do well. 

It lingers on throughout the day, 

trying to make me smile. 

It makes me smile even when

I’m miserable. 

 

The golden, bright, vibrant sun, 

shines through the day. 

It shines brightly when I come home, 

cheerful and marvelous. 

It shines brightly, 

even when everything’s a mess. 

 

The golden bright vibrant sun, 

shines through the day. 

All I have to do, 

is look up at the sky,

and I know all will be okay.

    Author's Note: This story isn't exactly mine to tell. One day, I came home from school, crying because I got a huge blister (this happened in elementary school) and the blister spread across my entire palm.

  • Take Me Away

    Author Bio: I wrote "Take Me Away," when I felt swamped with a growing list of things to do. It made me miss the days, in the pandemic when I’d run around the backyard, screaming “I’m bored!”

     

  • I'm Here!

    Author's Note: This poem was actually inspired by Emily Dickinson's poem, "I'm Nobody! Who Are You?" I was experimenting with rhyming schemes, and then I read Emily Dickinson's poem.
