PAPER BOATS

 PAPER BOATS



Flowing down waters, my yellow one

Paper creases folded, flowing on

Without an end and no clue

Not knowing where it' ll end up.


Perhaps on the coast of Hawaii

Perhaps on the coast of Japan

Without, a worry flowing downstream

Filled with my hopes and dreams.


With a pace that's strong as the wind

It passes through the hills and the plains

But little did I know that once in the sea

The crashing waves tore the little one apart.

MARIGOLD  This poem is inspired by daffodils by William Wordsworth: One day that was sunny, Many steps I took hurriedly. Seeing a white, fluffy bunny, I sat under a tree quietly. Ahead was a gurgling pond Ahead was another March Hare With one more as a bond Eating the meadow's grass so bare. Behind me were steep slopes Above me was a strong tree With a joyful swing with ropes And the leaves with birds so free. Surrounded was I with bright Orange and strong marigolds, Turned I to the right, And saw more marigold abodes. I thought and wished  I could stay here forever And suddenly it all finished A beautiful dream that I would have only once. -Erica Anahtreek
