Elijah: Poet, Flautist, Filmmaker



Some poems written by Elijah:

Light

Light is a rainbow of colors
It tastes like salsa
It sounds like music dancing on the moon
It smells like spices in the cupboard
It looks like a fireplace in the winter
It makes me feel cozy

Pie

Pie
Delicious, sweet
Baked, sliced, eaten
Melts on my tongue
Pastry

Moon

Moon
Rocky cold
Glowing, waning, waxing
Turns me to werewolf
Lunar

Auto-Bio Poem

Eli
Imaginative, flautist, gamer, humorous
Lover of pie, hats, and rain
Who needs trees, oxygen, and water
Who fears death, his brother, his family disappearing
Who would like to see the school be mine, a perfect day, a worldwide phenomenon
Who will someday have a successful life
Latour

Did you?

Did you ever see a chicken?
Feathery, scrawny-legged, nervous

Did you ever see a turtle?
Lumbering, ancient, mobile

Red

The color Red
It burns like a fiery rage
And sets like a sun


A film made by Elijah. Title: Billy Smith is Born with a Gas Mask
