The World Around Me

May 24, 2023

Sun around the world finds me

Moon around the world hides me

My dog stepped on a bee

And then came after me

Still, there’s more that I must be

Stop.

Silence is all the noise I need.

 

Note: This poem was written as part of an activity where members of The Fourth Floor each wrote a line of the poem while only being able to view the previous one.
