Poetry

Acrostic

Lights illuminating green below
Alone in fluorescence
Constructing dreams
Reserved for one
Open to all
Stagnant
Silent
Empty




Spenserian sonnet

A The light shines,
The water reflects the trees
A nearby picknicker dines
The air covered in butterflies and bees

Footsteps approach but nothing flees
The animals sit without fear
And the bodies freeze
A boy whispers “look at the deer”

The animal seemingly unaware of the boys leer
calmly wanders away
The only thing still visible is its rear
The animals around scatter, the people are here to stay

Free Verse

a minnow dancing
pursued
unaware of any danger
snap
it goes dark
click
its pulled backwards
splash
it has made contact with the fresh air
freedom
it is sent through the air
splash
just a minnow dancing
