February Poem: Again

Announcements on Social Media

Again

Hands in hands, lips on lips

Again

Sweet words, sparkling eyes

Again

Cards, candy, flowers, gifts

Again

Nothing for me

Again

Empty mailbox, empty heart

Again

Maybe next year will be different

Again

My Nom De Plume

I had the name "Makaila Rylee" because it was a name I found by accident and I really liked it. However, ever since I told friends and teachers I wanted to be a writer, they've told me "Elizabeth Jane" sounded like an author from the 1800's. After the last person told me this, I thought about it for a while and decided that I like it better!

My Writing

So far I have only had one thing published. When I was in 6th grade I submitted a poem for a contest. Well, only one other girl submitted one, and we both got our poems in the book. I never thought it was such a big deal, until I realized that it could be a step for me. Since then, I have been writing with no intent in publishing anything. However, I have been thinking about writing something that I really would like to publish, and hopefully one day I will feel that one will be "good enough." For now, it's just a fun hobby.
