(2014)
Pretty and dainty Rich girl feet Meant to be Beside the pool They don’t like to work
A joke Lost in Translation You will Never
Look in the mirror What is it you see? Hazel eyes above your Favorite black dress Looks clean and fresh

I am stronger Than you think I am I am weaker Than I look
When I think of my mom I think of malt o meal muffins When I think of my dad Memories of a child Chasing us around the circle
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
Steamroller Of life Passed by Feeling down Squished
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
I find richness In the mixture In what others disdain Young people lost Between two cultures
Life is good A little luxury A cup of coffee Served with toast Consumed lazily
Yo te amo Tres palabras Que solucionen todo Para la mujer Tan complicada
Algunos me gusta compartir Calientitos Justo cuando salgan del horno Que no se enfríe Por eso lo escribí
A fresh faced country girl Who pioneers on her bicycle Catches the eye Of a transplant from Houston Love begins through letters
It’s not pretty When I cry People get almost as embarrassed as I
