By Erin V., Shrewsbury, MA
The new world is entered;
the first glimpse of the wondrous blue sky...
Startlingly clear, or dark and stormy; varying in its shades
and intensity;
Spacious and discomforting, repressing or heartening;
the color remains embedded in the mind.
A luminous smile dawns in the newborn baby's eyes;
The baby bird chirps loudly as it waits impatiently for its mommy's return;
The tiny kitten steps hesitantly out from under the porch where its warm
safe home has been.
Separately:
at the same time together:
the new world is entered.
This piece has also been published in Teen Ink's monthly print magazine.
