Poems of Students.

Personal Reflection and Identity Self-discovery In the library’s quiet, I lose track of time, Among pages and verses, I search for the rhyme. Characters whisper their secrets to me, In their struggles and triumphs, I start to see. Each novel I read peels back a layer, Revealing my thoughts, my dreams, my despair. In the margins of texts, I scribble my fears, Finding my voice through the ink of my tears. With every essay crafted, I shape who I am, A tapestry woven with words like a plan. In this journey of language, I carve out my space— An English major’s path is a dance with grace. — Relationships In classrooms alive with laughter and debate, We bond over sonnets and stories of fate. Friends become family through late-night discussions, In the world of literature, we find our connections. We share our favorites—each line a delight, From Austen to Faulkner, our passions ignite.

Waves of Motion

The river rushes, a wild dance of flow, As I leap from stone to stone, heart aglow. Each splash sends ripples, a thrill in the air, My feet pound the earth, a rhythmic affair. The wind tugs at my clothes, urging me to run, Like a playful child chasing the setting sun. Branches sway above, whispering secrets untold, While my spirit soars high, fearless and bold. With every heartbeat, I feel the world spin, In this vibrant ballet, where adventure begins.

Taste of Summer

The sun drips honey on my eager tongue, As ripe peaches burst, sweet nectar flung. A sip of lemonade, tart and bright, Dances like sunshine on a lazy night. The crunch of fresh cucumbers, cool and crisp, Each bite a whisper, a summer’s lisp. Juicy strawberries stain my fingertips red, Their sweetness lingers long after they’re fed. The warmth of cornbread, golden and warm, Wraps around me like a comforting charm.

Scents of Autumn

The air is thick with the scent of crisp leaves, As nature exhales, and the earth gently weaves. Pumpkin spice dances on the cool, brisk breeze, A warm embrace wrapped in memories that please. Woodsmoke curls upward, a cozy delight, Whispers of bonfires that flicker at night. Apples hang heavy, their sweetness divine, Each bite a burst of harvest, a taste of sunshine. Muffled aromas of cinnamon swirl, In this fragrant tapestry, autumn unfurls.

Echoes of the Night

The moon hums softly, a lullaby’s tune, While crickets chirp secrets beneath the silver moon. The wind whispers gently through the swaying trees, Like a lover’s breath carried on the evening breeze. A distant owl hoots, wise and profound, Its call reverberates in the stillness around. The river gurgles, a playful, bubbling song, As night wraps the world in its velvet throng. Stars twinkle like laughter in the vast, dark sea, In this symphony of night, my spirit roams free.
