I’m Kirby a fighter, a brave little person, and you see me walk by. I’m a blooming tree with flowers of every color. I am America and America is me! Continue reading I am America

Look among the forest ground Come into my flowerhouse and smell my flowers Driptip and buttress roots One single guava Observing plants that seem to enjoy the silence How beautiful they were We saw flowers and air plants, they were pretty Observing cactus plants that twirl around me Tons of plants and food that astonished me Zombie palms, spikey with sides Checking adaptations like they’re at the store I see air roots up high And just imagine you went into some cold place Damp, damp afternoon So moist in the air Some plants grow up, some plants grow down Fruit … Continue reading The Botanic Poem

From high to low Emergent layer to canopy Birds chirping everywhere The sound of nature Echoing through the tree. A violent growl From an ocelot Pouncing on its prey A howler money howling for territory. Monkeys swinging from tree to tree Racing the speed of light. A sloth hanging from a tree like a piñata Waiting for kids. Continue reading Sound in The Rainforest

On the green rainforest floor grass grows on the ground with grasshoppers hopping from leaf to leaf raindrops slipping off drip tips Green in the rainforest frogs croaking, lizards jumping cucumbers, bananas, and pickles There’s green everywhere in the emergent layer giant leaves sway in the breeze the canopy blocking the sunlight from the forest floor There is green in the rainforest green grass and blowing leaves There is green in the rainforest Continue reading Green

Walking across the Harbour Bridge a wispy breeze ruffling my hair. Seagulls squawking as I eat my fish and chips on the Sydney Opera House. Late for school running to the office at Neutral Bay Public School. Having turkey with gravy pudding covered in cream cracking bonbons at my Nana’s house on Christmas. I’m riding around on a bike my big sister on another my other sister and my cousin at my Grandpa’s house. Continue reading Australia

I find poetry in the long golden grass and wheat-covered fields blowing in the wind on the way to the Berkshires. I find poetry in the rain tapping against the window pane. I find poetry in the flowers blooming in the spring and releasing petals in the summer. I find poetry in the crisp air of the fall and the cold chilly air of the winter.
