rebecca leonard Poems

Cinderella!
I need your crummy clothes cleaned.
First, make sure you have every stain off them.
You need to look decent tonight for the guests.
...

Words and letters on the board.
Voices that can barely be heard.
Time is ticking.
'Hurry up! '
...

How could you?
Yell at me
You try to pick a fight?
YOU TOLD ME SHE WASN'T RIGHT!
...

As I slowly read your oems
Examining every line
I stop and think about it
Remembering every time
...

Hold on to what is right,
Even if your all alone.
Hold on to what you want,
Even if it takes a fight.
...

As I stare into a stranger's eyes
I can see their truths and lies.

With just one look
...

I lay awake at night
Thinking will she be all right?
I heard him yell
My sister looks at me with my ears ringing like a bell
...

To heaven you have gone...
Away from all of us
You didnt get to stay...
Sickness took its toll...
...

To be cheerful is being loud
You always need a big smile
Standing back tuck will make them proud
Go to UF and be on file
...

No you're not perfect, you don't understand.
Your smile bright as the sunrise in the morn.
You caught me when I fell and helped me land.
You made sure my poor heart would not be torn.
