Youth Poems


Mime
 Henry Haswell

The mime is turning, spinning, whirling,
Yet time is still...
The golden winds beat on the run
Majestic spirit and silence screaming in the air
While they whisper rhyme
And all is fine
Children speak
And parents ea

A Last Line/First Line Poem
 Henry Haswell

I take it you are he?
 
Now it all made sense.
He had found him,
This man for whom he'd searched so far
Was right in front of him
 
"Will you please tell me
Who it is I see?"
 
"It is simple.
I am Blissful
That you ask my name."
 
                     "What is it 
That gave you fame?"
 
"It's the name
Just like yours
It's all really the same.+
 

"If that's true,
I'll try to follow you."
 
So began this journey
Of Blissful and Lost.


Ode to Explosions
 Henry Haswell

The match is lit.
The button is pressed.
The lever is pulled.
However it begins doesn't matter.
The orange glow comes out.
The shockwave releases.
The sound of it spills out.
In a second, it is gone.



Griddle Cakes
Kristen Davis

Golden batter spills out of the bowl
Landing in a hot, buttery pan.
The yellow liquid bubbles with sweet aroma.
The edges slowly browned
creating a lake of gooey goodness.
I flipped the griddle cake over
and repeated the process
with my watering mouth.
Finally they're done
and I squeal in delight
with my first bite of heaven.

Silence
Kanikkie Yorba

It fills the vast expanse,
Consumes every space, it takes.
All went silent after being silenced,
No noise or sound made.
For fear of breaking the tension;
The intense, tantalizing, consumable, the silence.
Deep breaths in and release on the air of silence.
Close your eyes and absorb the feelings,
Thoughts, surrounding, process.
All that sheds light, come to you,
In the abyss of silence.
 
Amorphous
Devin Benitez

Have you heard?
Here the Fairfax child was kidnapped
     and later found destroyed
He was almost impossible to identify...
Hence, it was the work of the Amorphous One

She who exists without a definite shape
She can become whoever or whatever she wishes
She seduces her victims
     and has them do her bidding
     before she ends them
She holds all in her hands

Her defeat is impossible
Her skin is immortal
Her face is beautiful and entrancing
Her name is the Amorphous One
