Kyle’s Poetry
Football
I see the colored leaves on the ground.
The football players
wearing their blue jerseys
warming up on the field.
I hear the band performing for the fans.
Music shaking down like thunder
from the sky.
The aroma of tailgaters
grilling their favorite foods
floods my nose.
I extend my hand and touch
the stonework of the Grotto
which feels both rough and smooth.
The warmth of the glowing candles
touches my heart.
Will I taste the sweetness of an Irish victory
or the bitterness of defeat?
A rush of emotion races through my soul.
Nature's Fury
The power of nature's fury at work.
Undiscovered territory.
Glowing and bright.
Mysterious.
Abyss.
All Together
I have a dream that we are all together
despite our differences
or beliefs
or how we act.
We are all one family
at Noorthoek Academy.
Striving to do our best
in this pandemic world.
Veterans' Day
To all the brave men and women
who served for the red,
white and blue,
we wish to celebrate you.
We appreciate all you’ve
done for this country.
In times of trials and strife,
your commitments have
given us a safe life.
You are brave and courageous heroes
protecting the freedoms we hold dear.
Today we remember
those who are no longer here.
My Inner Nirvana
Memories of our friendship
and things we did together.
It’s not the same without you.
Struggling with a heavy heart,
to carry on alone.
Listening to music,
soothing my soul,
finding my inner Nirvana.
