2009 2nd Prize Winner High School Poetry Winner The ocean, my depth and weightlessness The yin to my world Keeping me free and unsettled I will not be the stationed corals but swimming freely The earth,from which I am a tree, reaching far to the heavens Unstoppable, rich, heightened I breath freely above all My roots sink deeply into I am steady, strong You my love,to all this makes sense You are the water in my ocean Keeping me blithe and eccentric Pulling my heart out with your waves The soil of my earth where my roots tightly anchor and my heart finally stays You raise my branches higher to the skies I am balanced, Stable between heaven and earth and I need no more That is why I love you Poet from Fergus High School |
