  • A broken system

    The clock, the enemy of the mind,
    Time stretches into long ribbons,
    Each responsible for the waiting game. 

    Eyes glaze over, fragile ice on a sleeping pond,
    Foot shakes from restlessness,
  • Fall

    Sweet, juicy apples
    Little, red wooden wagon
    Sneaky hitchhiker

    A crisp cool sweet breeze
    Heart-pounding, breathless delight
    Footfalls in the leaves

    Colorful carpet
    Heaping piles of fresh leaves
  • Where I'm from

    I am from late-night stargazing,
    telescope on the porch.
    From the smell of sweet hay in my friend's hayloft.
    From frostbitten toes, and bright red noses.
    I am from cold days spent on a snowboard,
  • Afraid to Fall

    Lifes a journey, A winding road
    Full of forks, twists, and turns.
    When I get lost, You’re always here,
    To point which way to go.

    You’re my shoulder to cry on
    The person I rely on
    The one who can always make me smile.
  • Crystal lake

    Majestic mountains tower over crystal clear water,
    Sky-scraping evergreens, border the rocky shore,
    Their reflections blurred in the water.
    My paddle slices through the lake, Silently, leaving only bubbles in my wake.
  • nauset beach at dusk

    Dark, cold water crashes against the shore

    Shallow footprints erased by the waves

    Outlying stars reflected on midnight water.

    A gentle breeze loops in and out of the tall grass,

    Playing hide and seek with the wind.
