Julie A Smith Poems

The hopeful girl stares down at the blank page

and ponders the fresh promise of a new year.
...

She is passionate about
fairness and equality.
Justice is not just a store,
but rather a progressive and important social concept.
...

The boy
no one notices
because he
will not cause a scene
...

I walk alone.
Sometimes the day is sunny.
Sometimes the day is cloudy.
Rainy.
...

She is searching for
a beautiful flow.
Two a.m.
and she feels inspired
...

The shy girl smiles.
She ponders and does muse
why when it comes to love
she always seems to lose.
...

Almost
Softly
touching the ground.
The weeping willow branch
...

Feeling forlorn
and forsaken.
Love is
elusive,
...

The sadness lingers
like a gloomy day
with dreary forlorn skies,
bitter rains,
...

She presses repeat again
as another day feels exactly the same.
The same tasks, the same thing.
Boredom and monotony.
...
