Hi
Bella here. I’ve been working on two poems so HERE THEY ARE!!
A Perfect Morning
Cascading light,
Shadows lie upon my pillow,
The sun’s delicate heat caresses my face,
I throw open the window and stare out,
A breeze hurries through the screen,
My chilled skin soaks in the icy cold air,
So immense and beautifully flowered,
The magnolias outside gaze upon my wide grin and start a quiet conversation,
Their simple smiles of joy beam down to me,
I sprawl on the bay window beside my bed,
The light streaming through the leaves of the trees illuminate a book,
And a gust of wind turns the first page of a perfect morning.
Caged
Her fragile gaze,
From across the street,
And beyond the seas,
Her open arms,
A warm touch she longs for,
A sweet lullaby she craves,
Her hair a previous glittery gold,
Now yearns for color and vigor,
She is lifeless,
Alone and caged,
Wanting to be free.

Isabella. Deep. Real deep. I love that you love to write! I’m glad you’ll be helping my out with this blog. A daughter’s take on life can be very refreshing and sometimes I just don’t have anything to say! Love, Mom (Hazel@ http://www.kidadoblog.wordpress.com)

Such wonderful prose-surely this did not come from a 13 year old! Isabella, please keep writing (and playing music with Ana!). I will frame a copy of your second poem and hang it on my wall. I won’t be infringing on any Bella copyrights, will I?
