Joel’s Poetry

A Postcard to Lisa

How are you?
I am writing from the boot (Italy).
I have been eating a lot of pasta
and have seen the statue of David.
Tonight I’m going to see the Mona Lisa.
I am here to celebrate New Year,
so I got a pair of red underwear
to bring me good luck in the new year!

Kindness

Doing something
nice for someone
that you don’t
have to.
Kindness.
