Wow, what a week Rebecca Blevins is having! First she won the Flash Fiction Challenge, and now today she wins the Poetry Challenge for her poem "Adventures in Baking a Cheesecake!"
Adventures in Baking a Cheesecake(Rebecca Blevins)
Stir!
Beat!
Scrape, scrape,
I’m going to make a cake!
Crunch!
Smash!
Crumbs, please,
Pour lots of sweetened cream cheese!
Simmer!
Wet!
Set, set,
It’ll be the best one yet!
Oh!
No!
Fall down,
Sagging, unappealing brown.
Twist!
Turn!
Drop, plop,
Cherry filling fixes top.
Chill!
Slice!
Bite, bite,
This will be a tasty night!
The Wind (Bethany Ricks)
The Wind
The Rush
The Rush of breath
That brought me my life
My life of reason
My life of flight
Everything moving
Moving to a beat
A beat of a heart
The heart of the rush
Before the wind
Before the rush
The life that I knew
The life that was crushed
This rush that found me
Found and held me
Held me up and saved me
Now we walk
Hand in hand
Against the world
With the wind
