I must be in Florida.
who cluck blissfully in their pen.
grabbing coffee in a crowded bakery with steamy windows.
my hair getting lighter the longer I stay in the sun.
as I take a bus into Boston for an escape of theater and gardens.
skiing...which I haven't done in years.
It's an exciting time to be alive, isn't it?
Thank you for your thoughtful response...I always enjoy hearing what readers think, feel, and take away from poetry.
Simplicity is usually my goal, and I'm thankful you picked up on it. Thank you!
I love how you take us to many different places with your simple phrases and beautiful imagery. You provide a really strong sense of place through your writing. I really enjoyed this poem.
Funny thing is, the likely reason each of the places I mention are very vivid is because I've been to each one! This poem is about my options for college, and it was fun thinking how different each option is as I was writing. Thank you for your response!
