The Poetic Nature of Fall


Fall of Memories
By: Emily

My September boy who brings cold wind that nips at my skin
He sends mischievous leaves to tangle in my hair
When we are together the days seem to last for a moment but the nights forever
Walking with him I can hear the leaves announce our presence with joy
Without him the oranges reds and yellows fade to grey and the beauty of fall seems to have never lasted


Día de los Muertos
By: Victoria

Family skulls of the past come at night
Their cold embrace brings comfort not fright
A Celebration during day, they are back some might say
We all missed you, my friends
Come and gather so this party may never end
You see there is an altar,
It’s what represents you and your life
With kisses as sweet as death
We will miss you
Thank you for your presence
