Letters to Elizabeth Eckford


Dear Ms. Eckford I loved your dress. Your hair was fly. Your shades were classy. Your walk was fierce. Dear Ms. Eckford Were you scared? Was it like a nightmare? Did you cry? Dear Ms. Eckford You were brave. You gave hope. You made history. Dear Ms. Eckford What was it like? There so many of them. And so little of you. Dear Ms. Eckford Was Central High even a good school? What kept you so strong? You inspired me. Dear Ms. Eckford Thank you for going to school Thank you for standing tall Thank you for that day at Little Rock

I am an aspiring actress going to college in new York. I love poetry. For me it's another way to be creative. It simply makes me happy.
