UNTITLED Caleb Tiradani 7th Grade • Rotolo Middle School
As I sit outside, waiting, night begins to fall, As I wait, I try again to ponder the mysteries of quarantine, As I stretch my legs out while I lay on the blanket under me, I then begin to see the conclusions that help me understand. And so I begin, and changing my perspective as I go along, And so I start with the most familiar perspective I know. When you actually can see the stars for yourself, When you can finally do the things that have never been done, When life can finally be discovered, for you’ve always been different, When you can finally see When you finally see the world in a better mood, and human life isn’t too bad. When I can sing my bird songs freely, When the grass is greener, and the baby birds learn to fly, When the worms come out more plentiful, and food can last longer, When my wings can grow longer, and the big rumbles from the gray below, When the noise dies down and we live a happier and more plentiful life.
