As the snow melted into the dead grass,
the sun filtered through the trees casting light
the wheelbarrow full of plants shined its brass
I ran up the hill holding my pink kite

I am glad the winter winds are ending
they had blown through me like a hollow shell
my thoughts were scattered but now are mending
these cold winter thoughts of mine I will sell

I sent them away inside a letter
to whom I do not know or have desire
whoever opened it may feel better
this soul shattering season will retire

The grass now rises from the dusty ground,
like I will out of this painful cold mound.
A sonnet I wrote for english class last year

I always think I want to make
an impact on the world,
make my words count
and actions matter
when I'm gone.

The birds flock south
when the world gets too cold,
I wish I can join them
but then remember
I am not that free,
I have a message to share
and stories to tell.

I always think I want to make
an impact on the world,
make my words worth the breath
and actions be positive.
Humans leave home
when the trees turn bare,
but I promise to make the best of it.

— The End —
