You Are Poetry
Tumble out of bed
Cowlicks curl out of place
Bare feet pad delicately on the cold wooden floor
Shivers rack your body
Rush out the door
Hair wiping every which way
Don't miss the bus!
Fiddle around in school
trying to keep your grades par
socialize with friends
make jokes with them
your laughter rings out like a choir of bells
an unceremonious snort
your back home
all the works accomplished
Expertly navigate the web
clamor into bed before slumber takes you
Awaken. Your next poem is about to start
You write with the movements of your body
The actions of each day
From one moment to the next
You are poetry.
