Our Poem

Little holes
open up
expand
gaping empty
in the land
stretched taught

as all is naught

and love is brought
swirling down
with the tiniest leaf
a memory
like a relief
enters in

//

a rainbow
streaming through
something new
a beautiful angel

and she says
i am so pretty
and witty
and wise
look at my beautiful eyes

i smell like flowers
and fresh late showers
and cookie powers

with which i spread my sweetness and love
a rainbow gift from above

and then I dance around the sun
and invite the stars to my house
and they wake all our household mouses

and the mouses with bows on their heads
jump around in circles
cheering "yay stars
from so very far
we are happy you are here

you are so shiny
my eyes hurt
and you make me want to run around in circles"

I like drinking in
your famous fountain
of dancers

that jump back and forth
and all around
sparkling and twinkling
and making funny sounds

like honk
and doodlebop.

Love,

Bella, Jenna, & Liz
