Reflections on the Writing Life: Hold Fast to Good Things

Thursday, April 15, 2010

Here is a good poem, produced by three middle school girls who attempted to paint a picture of Spring with words.

Unfailing Spring

Unfailing youth of Spring

Holds fast to all things good.

A fevered glimpse of peaceful blooms:

Sun-drenched blossoms,

Plants and every green blade

Dance and brag in the breeze.

--Savannah Baker, Lydia Emeric and Jordan Romain

poetreader said...: "Dance and brag in the breeze"

What a wonderful image! Makes my feet want to move.
