7.14.2010: After the Rain Poem

After the rain, all is still,
the air is heavy, and a mist
rises from the grasses. Birds
chirp, softly, unsure if all is
clear. A chill touches my
bones- I shiver.

6.23.2010: The Meaning of______ Poem:

The meaning of freedom
is different for everyone.
For some, to say what
they want without
fear of execution.
For othes, to move
freely througout society.
For others, to love
and marry whom they wish.
For still others, it is
to go to school and work.
For me, as a woman,
it is all of these.
