Kitten and The Village—Two Poems, by Elijah Hong (age 11)

< Back to Issue #6

Kitten

by Elijah Hong, age 11

Kitten.
Playful, mischievous,
Romping, cuddling, pouncing.
It plays in sunshine.
Slyboots.


The Village

by Elijah Hong, age 11

Busy streets line the empty sidewalks
While someone once in a while talks.
Cars silently line the narrow streets
As snow starts to fall in soft sheets.
Brick buildings stand straight and tall
Loudly echoing the dog’s call.
Bye, small village, see you soon!
Keep the doors open and sing a merry tune.
