Finding Your Worth: Poetry by Kelly Duarte
It is a faint rainbow in a summer storm
The warm raindrops stick
A pattering on the roof
As you sleep with the windows open
Your Inner Glow – March Poetry
by Kelly Duarte
“Eclipsed”
How much brighter do you think you can get?
Your beams already fall into my eyes
And you burn into my memories
So stunningly
That images of you lay over
The visions of every day.
My dreams are washed out
And replaced with your glow.
I’m not sure if I’m seeing you
In my future
Or seeing a lasting flash
From the camera
Holding the pictures of us
From my past
But I keep my eyes open
Because I’d rather be blinded
By your light
Than to see clear in a darkness
That only happens when you’re gone
Accepting Difficult Change: Poetry by Georgia St. Jones
My mother had been wanting to move to Lancaster since we started going through the moving process. It was me and my negative energy that kept us in L.A. for so long. It took me a long time to accept that my future was no longer in Los Angeles.
