[A.N] >> I wanted to give a little meaning behind the title. During my creative writing class our teacher took us outside and had us write poems using our senses of what we experienced in nature. That's why it's titled February 20, 2018 because that's when it was written.
~*~
The flags want to be freed,
They've been held captive.
The birds chirp a song
As they dance along,
Trying to be understood through the wind.
The leaves try to run,
Far from the trees.
The letters on the sign,
Long for someone to read them.
The chimes ring out loud,
Like a cry for help.
The papers rustle in the wind,
With nothing written on them.
The stop light shines night and day,
Giving light to the street.
With its bright colors,
Desperate to show cars the way
The trees stand still,
Trying to blend in.
It's branches are empty,
Wishing for spring.
The bricks blend in,
They don't want to be seen,
They just want to show their colors,
But not reveal their identity.
The grass tries to show off,
By giving off a scent.
Calling out "please don't step on me",
But getting ignored by everything.
