Li-Young Lee-Assignment #3


Every night when I was young
My mother would come in my room
She would tuck me in and kiss me goodnight
and wish me good dreams and that the bed bugs wont bite.

I woke up one morning and looked outside
Everything was covered in snow

I heard my mother calling my name
I followed her voice to the kitchen

She was waiting for me to tell me something
There was no school today
So we shared some hot chocolate
And I told her I loved her.

Very touching Kellie. Simple lines like "I heard my mother calling my name / I followed her voice to the kitchen" are reminiscent of Lee. Nicely done.
