Cicada's Song


whispers in the night sky
loud then soft as days go by
we don't have much time so we trill melodies
piercing notes on a tender breeze
from one tree to the next
true love forms as our tunes become passionately complex
we sing each day until love stirs
never seen but always heard

Interstellar

I remember
the first time
I saw stars.

I was just
a young city girl
slowly making her way
to the patio door, sliding
the glass just so,
making it seem that the sliver of space
between the door and the wall
was handcrafted for her figure.

The summer air hugged her tightly
as she made her way outside.
Her bare feet danced
upon the wooden floor, elevated
from what seemed to be lightyears above
the grass below.

The creak of a plastic chair
is familiar to her as she pulls it out,
as her world has been nothing
but plastic and concrete,
and risks untaken,
such as climbing trees,
for falling would leave you
in the cold grasp
of brick.

The girl goes to take a seat, yet
as she stands, she observes
the ballet of the fireflies,
their pirouettes taking them higher
and higher,
'till they're nearly tickling the trees,
and brushing against her hand.

She becomes mesmerized,
as her aunt's backyard
is now the lightning bugs' theatre.
A lightshow of bioluminesence
surrounds her,
as the dozens upon dozens
continue to dance into the night.

Then, she sees it,
A clear sky, to her
it is something out of movies, no- photoshop.
At first, she can't even appreicate
the glittering sky before her,
as disbelief fogs the lens of her eye.

Yet alas,
through the leaves of the towering trees,
she can't deny it.
In that moment, she is no longer
simply a straight-A student, a girl
with two braids, a plain jane
with brown hair and brown eyes.

She is stardust, just like all else
within the galaxy that is held before her eyes.
Her heart is the radiance
of the glimmering balls of gas & fire
that smile back at her in the distant sky,
with her heart's beat matching
the rhythm of the fireflies' masquerade.

"You like them too, don't you?" a voice
shatters the moment,
bringing her back down
to where a bunch of insects
are simply buzzing around the patio.

My aunt, an escapee
of the concrete jungle,
smiles to me. "Crazy, isn't it?
You don't get stuff like that
back in New York."

"Yeah,"
I smiled back,
the reflection of the stars still piercing
my eyes that now illuminated
with wonder,
"Crazy."

I decided to tell this short, simple poem titled "'Summer Is Here'".

SUMMER IS HERE

The long drawn out day
The warm, still night
Clouds passing as I lay
Until the last light

The cool breeze blowing around
Mister Sun shining down
The flowers blooming in the ground
There is no need to frown

The day fades for the stars up high
Crickets chirping for all to hear
I smile and tell to the sky
"Yes, Summer is here!!"

I Sincerely Hope you enjoyed it!!
May Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key!!

This sounds awesome! Here's my poem, I call it Welcome to summer.

I woke up to a calm warm breeze
That shook the leaves upon the trees
The more that I thought I was quick to discover
The heat of the sun made it clear as day summer
The heat beating down and an ice cream in hand
The heat of this season can really be grand
Look at the flowers with beautiful color
Everyone, everyone, welcome to summer!
Never fear the shadows, they only mean a light is shining somewhere nearby! <3

૦ Summer Solstice ~ Risen ૦
By:
Alina M. Elmflame

When you startle awake in the dark midnight sky
heart pounding, breathing fast
sitting bolt upright staring into
the dark whirlpool black hole
discerning its power

Reaching to get elsewhere from your bed
knocking at the door of your nearest friend
querying to lie down, asking to be held

Listen while whispered rhythms
turn the hole into the deep night sky
stars neighboring each other
Summer moon rising over the quiet jade fields
Nearby, wren rustling dry leaves
distant raven echoing
two women walking up the road giggling

Let your soul laugh
let your heart sigh out
that long held breath so hollow in your stomach
so distended in your throat

Already the warmth of sunlight
returning the pairs of wings
lift softly off the darkness, one by one
each feathered edge clearer between you
and the pearl veil of day
shall arise near you

I call this poem: Blazing hot but stylish and fun


Phew the sun is hot. I feel the temperature has reached the top
But hey it’s a good time for swimming with my new swim suit in my neighborhood pool
And not only that, a rocking new hat, and some new flip flops
And other than looking real fab
To bring the hot day to a terrific top
How bout an ice cream from marble slab

Don’t be aggravated by the blazing hot sun
Instead get something delicious and have some fun
I am one of ariana grande's arianators
