Poetry

Congratulations to Blake Gautreau and Tyler Belden for being the first published writers on the site.  I hear echoes of Williams in both of these poems.

The Window Tree

by Blake Gautreau

   Outside my seventh

grade

   Window stands a 

dead

   Grey tree with

leaves

   Sprinkled around its 

base.

The Old Bench

by Tyler Belden

Covered in moss by the woods

A bird's nest on the side

It's breaking on the legs and I don't 

know how long it will last

I love that bench.

My dad has fixed it but it keeps

Rotting

as the seasons pass.
