Sierra R May 2010
I feel out of place
Loneliness is hard to bear
My friends are not here

I am forgotten
My old friends are gone for good
Not even a call

If I had one friend
One true friend to stay with me
Things might be different

My old friends are gone
No chance for new friendship comes
I am all alone
Sierra R May 2010
The roaring, crashing
Running over rock ledges

A turbulent mass
Blue-green rainbows of color
Nature's own wonder

Tiny tinkling sounds
Mini-streams overflowing
Down the mountainside
Sierra R May 2010
Fall
Red, orange, yellow, brown
Goose music
Fuzzy wool sweaters
Fresh-baked pumpkin pie—Mmmm…
Musty leaves
         Autumn!
Winter
Bare tree limbs
Crunch snow
Slippery ice
Sugary cookies
Tangy gingerbread
          Happy Holidays!
Spring
New green buds
Chirp chirp of bird songs
Soft, fuzzy grass
Juicy strawberries
Sweet daffodils
          New Life!
Summer**
Trees in full leaf
Bzzz of a fat bumble bee
Lazy, hot, swing-in-a-hammock days
Cold, sweet watermelon
Mowed lawns
         Vacation!
Sierra R May 2010
Red gently flutters to the ground;
Yellow slowly drifts near me.
Orange, I watch it swirl around,
While green hangs delicately to the tree.

I love the crackling sound as I walk to school,
The smell of leaves wet with dew,
The feel of leaves—moist, cool.
The crisp fall air makes me feel born anew.

Autumn slowly fades away;
The leaves turn brown.
The nights get colder, day by day;
Yet, the leaves still stay to cover the ground.
