Glowing Stars
A yellow star floating like a boat and people wishing for stuff like triangles on the side of the star. Nasoni
You know Nisoni, as soon as I finished reading your poem I thought of Maya Angelou, she is a famous contemporary poet. Here is a bit of her poem Still I Rise: "Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I'll rise.". Your poem reminds me of hers because in this poem she uses "like" in every paragraph. "Like" is a very useful tool in writing. Maybe you will look out for the word "like" when you read other books and poems.
