A canvas - Dots of classes, Strokes of tests, and Splashes of hope

I am beyond happy right now. After an extensive search through all of my college things, I lucked out and found my poem. It means a lot to me for a few reasons, but mainly i'd say because of the person who inspired me to write it. And it's also the only poem i've ever written outside of a class assignment.


Canada Dry on a Thursday
Sitting in the car it's hard to imagine
What life was like before this passion
The road stretching ahead, guiding us along
I can't help but laugh as she sings this song
The freedom we have to live like this
Giving up those things we knew we'd miss
But we needed it, to feed our fire
To grow, to become people so much higher
To discover all the wonders our father has made
To live our lives to the fullest, before they fade
A journey we're on, with no idea where we're going
Yet together we stand strong in the face of unknowing
The bond that ties us has grown more beautiful over the ages
So much already written, but left yet are many pages
Adventure, uncertainty, humor, and love
Isn't that what stories are made of

To Strawberry
