Jennifer Helton Poems

Can you hear the sounds?

Can you hear the birds,
Can you hear the words.
...

My life is nice,
my life is twice.
you can see me twice,
or twice at a time.
...

In the mirror she sees, a face
A face of a girl that has lost herself
Stuck in ties and alabies
She continues to grow, although
...

The time I hate
the time I lie
the time I run
the time I die.
...

Thus the trees say,
say that it is so to be not?
we travled so far but yet thus must lie.
why my bucket is as full as can be
...

I set out to find that one
that would bring me to where I meet you
I found him In that big old place
the Holyness building Ive been going to
...

Alarm sounds
arm moves, snooze button
mother yells time for school
she rolls out of bed
...
