Best Young Girl Poems

Head down
The old woman sews 
A dress
Nimble fingers 
Marking each stitch
The whirring of machines
Whirling and whirling
Round and round
Threading memories
Of another time
Reminding her
Of a night
Long ago
When she was afraid 
To speak to a boy 
Sitting next to her.
As her busy fingers work
She remembers more
Of that summer...

Just awoke, with,

than a few days ago....

I saw you welcome the sun's kiss in the tropical country.
I saw how you wished you had swings and the feeling of soaring through clear skies.
You dreamt of being your brother's kites.
I saw you cut the string and set them free.
You were so deeply young.
You...

There was a Mantis, a sweet young girl,
Who wanted to give mating a whirl!
She found a poor boy
With whom she could toy,
Who didn’t know his life would unfurl!


Footnote:

during the reproductive act. Strangely,...

There was a young girl named Alice
Who lived in a wonderland
She ate to get big, drank to get small
She’d shrink and then expand

A young girl from Old River Front 
Got so hungry she went on a hunt 
But got more than she care 
When encountered a bear 
So she ran, cuz that was too much to confr'nt!

An almost full length body mirror propped up against the chair
She sat quietly on her pedestal of hope
Hoping that one day she too could look like the movie star
That graces the glossy pictures of the magazines
She sits to ponder what does it take to ...

There is a young girl at my school,
But when she tries to act cool,
She gets into trouble,
And there on the double,
Suddenly, she became the fool....

The young girl had come to live with them 
that summer.

The young girl told the older step-sister that
Her initials were the same as hers.

She asks: Who's initials are you talking about?

The young girl says you know.
The girl that walks in the graveyard.

I told your mom...

Black Pearls

and Broken ocean shells

Cannot stop my love for you



We are shipwrecked

on a jagged reef

A pirate's treasure of booty

with nothing to spend it on



The curse is on now

it is the dark time

and the thunder clouds

grumble and groan



The rainbow above us

is not artificial

As Dylan holds that...

PORTRAIT  
YOUNG GIRL, SEATED, WITH VIOLIN

Scanning…

Her dress commands the scene,
Stifling the beige background drapes,
Flowing, engulfing a plush, roseate sofa

Can this have been a concert,
Either before or later?
Well? …What?
Does she actually play the violin she holds on her knee?
Or is it afterthought?

Such a pretty young...

It's a blessing and a curse
To have both food and drink
Filling the cup and stuffing our faces
But mindlessly scraping food in the sink

I picture this frail, young girl
Nothing but weak bones and skin
She can't close her eyes right now
Saliva dripping from her chin

She watches a...
