READERS!

Hello readers, browsers, or anyone in between, this week I'm doing something new, and I really dig it. I'm putting some wonderful writers from my town up on my blog. I personally grow as a writer when I hear something, or read something of someone elses. It's a truly wonderful thing to encourage and to support! So read up! I should have a few more coming in soon! Also, if you feel so inspired after reading some of these poets words, send me some of your thoughts! Some of your poems or anything else! Tell your friends, it's a great thing to see & share!
much love friends,
-Olivia

I saw a child,
wandering.
She had sand
caked in her fluffy dress.
She picked up daisies,
and removed petals,
not knowing
in 10 years,
she'd be asking those petals
if he loved her,
or loved her not.
But for now,
the only man
she would love
was her father,
he sat on a bench
at the edge of a cliff,
thinking in the colors of fear,
he thought red,
he thought black,
he thought gray.
He thought about how stupid games were,
and why he ever thought a daisy meant shit.

Garden

I lit a candle,
and set it in my garden.
I watched the ladybugs worship their new found light.
They grew to the size of tomatoes,
And forgot about the dark.
They sang love songs to the birds,
longing for the day they would soon fly into the sun.
