Writer’s Block

by Tatianna Evanisko
I don’t know why my pencil won’t move.
I can’t get into the writer’s groove.
My mind is blank.
I can’t get an idea from my thinking tank.
My pencil is not sharp.
My eraser fell on the floor.
I can’t think of an idea.
I just stare evermore.
Then I had an idea.
My mind was not blank.
I got an idea from my thinking tank.

Snowflakes

by Paige Conrad
They fall so silent, like a mouse on Christmas Eve
as delicate as an ornament on your tree.
You never know when they will come
but you wait all year.
Then, you finally see the prize
of this glitter in your eyes.
Beautiful gifts you want to see,
so many to look at with laughter and glee.
These gifts are truly a sight to see.
