Poetry

     Throughout my blog I am going to post poems. I hope you enjoy them as much as my friends do. Most of my poems don't have titles.


Dappled light reaches its fingers
towards me
Birdsong, and the laughter and shouts
of my cousins mingle in the air
I reach out brushing the tips
of my fingers on a bush that my cousin 
hides in shush don't give me away 
The rich sent of the forest smoothly
hits me in the face
I pop a blueberry in my mouth
and let the gentle, familiar taste 
wash over my tongue




Ha!


Kevin do you 
know how irritating 
I find it when you tag me?


yeah

the wind rushes by my
head 
my feet fly across the ground
as my cousin chases
me across my yard

predator vs. prey
the favorite game
of my cousins
and my brothers
and I

the instant before I trip
I think 
I don't like that rock
anymore
