Spring on Campus By Lauren Jernberg

A great big building with windows

Galor stands alone. Pairs of people

sit outside talking about things to come.

Midterms most likely. The rody bushes

Are in full bloom just like the ones at home.

At least that’s what I assume.

Bright and pink I can imagine my dog

Running around chasing squirrels as

They run up trees. Their chirps sound like

Laughter as my dog barks away. She runs

Through the bushes taking flowers as she does.

She tramples over things like an elephant.

A tree has bent over and clings to life.

Probably growing out of spite.

Somewhere birds are fighting over what to eat.

My siblings never agree with me. We tend

To argue about most things.

Sometimes when we do agree we laugh

Till someone says you are wrong.

In the church like building is a

Women singing scales. When I was

In choir we did the same thing.

I was able to hit many high notes.

But I did not sound like her angelic voice.
