Angie commented on the post, months of quarantine
Dear Sara,
I really enjoyed reading about your feelings during quarantine. I found this poem to be really relatable. A line that stood out to me was “I remember having no motivation to do school work.” This stood out to me because during quarantine I started to fail some of my classes for the same reason, but overall your poem was really good and…Read More -

Dear Angie :
I am amused by your poem, “From Fall To Winter,” because the words said in the poem make me feel like I’m actually there. It also feels nostalgic.
One set of lines that stands out for me is, “The smoke dances out of the grill, Waltzing into the charcoal-colored sky’
Decorated with diamonds that are forever glistening until the sun rises”. I think these lines are amusing because I remember going to barbeques at the park and staying there until sundown.
Another line that stands out for me is, “The scent of red velvet fills the air as the moon hides behind the porcelain colored clouds and the fireflies greet us from the last of the emerald-colored bushes.
”. I think this line fascinating because it shows the beauty of nature and our planet.
Your poem reminds me of the song “flaming hot Cheetos” that I once heard. It’s a really good song. The melody gives me a vibe of nature. The vibe of that song makes me feel good and think about life.
Thanks for your poem. I look forward to seeing what you make next.
