Amelia Harmon- a Bio

Amelia,
writer, reader, shower singer, kitchen dancer,
Sister of James,
Lover of family, friends, and a badly-named boy,
who feels the weight of the world, love, pain,
who fears bones, secrets, fights
Would like to see a published book of mine, my friend's next reply, Hokkaido
Resident of Gifu, Japan,
Marie
friend, fearful, prideful, alone,
Sister of Meriwether (she's a girl, fyi)
Lover of books, music, art, my classes (all three of them)
Who feels the pain of the night, the bite of the wind and rain, the darkness of the heart, and the hatred that no one can see
Who fears her dark, dark heart, the things I cannot see, the things I don't hear, romantic love,
Would like to see mountains beneath my skis, wind in my sails, and courage in my heart
Resident of Seville, Ohio, USA
Harmon

*Note: Meriwether can be both a boys' and girls' name, famous example are the fairy in Sleeping Beauty (blue, I think) and Meriwether Lewis (he explored the western US with Sacajawea). I modded the poem slightly from the original form, using my middle name to link the two poems. X)
