Audio: "Among the Meadows," read by Rosie Jones
Below
the cherry blossom clouds—amongst the bowing heads—of daisies and—the beat of bees
lies
a gravestone with a name that—
i cannot quite read.
the moss climbs—upon its face and—the ants flock around its base and—
i settle down against the grass
singing songs of presentPast.
beside
a deep azure tree—nestled atop the gentle fronds—of lilac grass and—summer wine
i lie
heather heavy breathe
high
and on the scent of
Time.
Rosie Jones is a 17-year-old student who once wrote “wanabe aurthor,” bad spelling and all, on the edges of a Jacqueline Wilson novel. Now she has settled on writing messy poetry and prose, not for destiny or dreams, but simply because thoughts spill out of her in written form.

Wow..just wow. Ridiculous words I know. I just stumbled across your poem as this is my first time on the website and I landed this masterpiece. As an immigrant myself, I could relate to several aspects of this. Your use of imagery, symbolism, and allusion is outstanding

Powerful. Spreading the truth some don't think about, some don't have to worry about. A great and strong piece.
