Poem of the Week: Ilan Z., Capital City Public Charter School

During the winter, we will highlight just a handful of the original poems that students wrote during the fall season and performed at the 17th Annual DC SCORES Poetry Slam! in early December. To watch any performance from the Slam!, visit our YouTube channel.

The Universe
Look up at the stars
Gaze at the moon
See Venus and Saturn
A glorious sight
Shooting stars Shine so bright
In a milky way full of good and bad
Now I am thankful for the life I have
