Peace, a Poem for our Veterans, by Mason Li

Post Age 8 Published November 11, 2021 by Mason Li

We see the words on veterans’ graves - all powerful, all dark, nothing left, no heart, winners or losers - don’t care - both in the dark. Only left behind are their bodies, filled with peace, sadness, and bravery. Try remembering when he or she gave us peace, harmony. For that, we can thank them, but it’s too late. Their hearts cannot be seen.

The Common Worker

Post Published September 7, 2021 by Sofie Dardzinski

The common worker, Coal miner, stockyard worker, bricklayer, steel worker, table waiter, grocer, Fight for their share of their chance of a dream. When they work long hours, Dawn to dusk in the unjust surrounding of the city, They come to work and provide, Deserving the pay that comes handed over reluctantly, In an environment where they cannot rise up.

Coming Together

Post Published September 6, 2021 by Sofie Dardzinski

The isolating, eternal chaser, A monotonous virus alarming our world Broke delicate bonds, Relations and connections lost in a dark standstill. The caution we evolved to have, Flexing and bending like a field of wheat in the meandering wind, Adapting and upending the world to a lively place, Protecting us from what is next to come. We will find a way or make one.

Life Inside a Staircase, a poem by Arjun, 9

Post Published April 22, 2021 by Stone Soup Editors

Life Inside a Staircase Arjun Nair, 9 I wonder how it would feel to live inside a staircase. A loud STOMP, STOMP captures every peculiar moment. People are walking up and down. Sometimes they think again and turn around. When people decide to leave, they sometimes destroy their house into a flattened leaf. What happens to the staircase?

Spring in Central Park, a poem by Lila Laton, 11

Post Published April 20, 2021 by Stone Soup Editors

Spring in Central Park Lila Laton, 11 The cherry blossoms are blooming. That means that spring is here. Mr. Frosty is parked at the side of the road, and a kind grandmother is buying ice cream for a little child with snot running down his nose. People pose in front of the cherry blossom trees taking pictures. Couples, children and parents, friends. Someone proposes and everyone claps.
