School of Saint Mary eighth grader Caroline earned third place in a recent Bishop Kelley High School creative writing contest. Here is her entry.
I am a flower.
Showing off my beautiful petals.
Singing for bees to drink my nectar.
I tickle the ankles of people around me.
I bend in the wind.
I dance in the rain.
But when the cold comes, I go to sleep to wait for spring.
I am a flower.
Beautiful poem Caroline!!! Your great- grandmother is smiling from Heaven at your accomplishment!! And I am cheering you for all your creativity in writing!?❣? lots of love to you, precious granddaughter! Mimi & Pa
