The Bluestocking 2022-23

Sofia Alhussan | Grade 12 Sonder When,

When did my sonder turn into anxiousness

When I used to wonder about the how many tears The bags under the older womans eyes carried How many smiles had she smiled to provide her with the lines framing her mouth How many times her forehead lines were caused by her squirmy unruly child How many times the Small ears of her child heard the words I love YOU How many times did she mean it. The walking man appeared and the light turned green, it’s my turn to cross try to avoid eye contact.
