Notes About The Poem

A huge Congratulations to my beautiful granddaughter making her first year of high school cheerleading squad. Fly high!

 

Heights Of Strawberry Flight

Freshman high school cheerleader,
long hair the color of the summer berry,
heights of strawberry flight.
Lithe athlete with sky-hued eyes,
smile of a garden fairy.

Teenage enthusiasm,
flier,
storming the sidelines.
Crowd with alumni roaring,
celebratory September night,
heights of strawberry flight.
