JumpA Poem by Lorraine Hampton simple pleasure in the most childish things. JUMP! Jump! My
smile wide The
smell of fall Envelopes
me My
limbs tingling Floating
mid-air My
curls fly up Far
from my head As
the ground comes Closer
to me Adrenaline
Makes
my heart pound And
my mind thinks Only
of now My
toes touch ground My
heel lands flat My
curls fall down The
thrill passes But
the joy stays Land. © 2013 Lorraine HamptonAuthor's Note
