Secret Poem; I love to draw cartoons..
----------------------------------
You sit in
class
trying to pay
attention
but that piece of
paper
in front of you
is so
alluring
you can't but
help to pick up
your pencil
and lightly put
the sharp end
cautiously
on the blank spaces
of your
worksheet
as you bend over slightly
your long and dark
hair
making a
curtain
as it sweeps and flows
on the sides of your
face
to pool
on your desktop
stick figures
parade
all around the corners
of the paper
but what's going
on in your
mind
is anybody's
guess
do the figures
have a
story?
are they people
in the little
pockets of your
mind
tucked away
like a
secret
or are they
people you
know
but won't tell
to the rest of the
world
Time flies by
and you are still
in that
world
your pencil
reduced to its
end
your paper
is a
masterpiece
but your
teacher
seems to think
otherwise
Poem I wrote for my friend who went back to her country about a week or two ago. I'll miss you!!!!
