Lorenzo’s Poems
ABC’S of Chicago
A is for Austin Boulevard
that runs from Roosevelt and past
all the way to perching on Cicero.
I like driving downtown
and driving back to the east side
and while I drive in Chicago
I always have the windows open
so I can feel the fresh air.
I hopped on the green line
from downtown to Harlem/Lake.
I merged onto interstate 290
to go to downtown Chicago.
I took my dog to the jefferson park in the loop.
I'm gonna take the pink line all the way to Kedzie.
I dropped off my sibling on Laramie avenue.
When I go downtown I always pass by the Magnificent Mile.
I was eating some oreos by Lake Michigan.
Ode
The air heads strips are as colorful
as a stream of water under the sunshine.
I would get those strips when I was younger
and hang out outside of my house.
And I remember i would go to the corner store
to get those trips like if it was a bank.
Now it gives me nostalgia of when I was younger.
And the only in my opinion you can eat the rainbow strips is
in the summer because its the only time
you can enjoy the strips outside.
And something else i love about is that
this candy at first its a bit sour
and after you get the sweet taste
that it tastes like cotton candy.
For me personally the first time i tried
the airhead rainbow strips,
was the first time my oldest sister
gave me some to try.
And i like the taste of the
sweetness and sourness.
And in my opinion the airhead strips are the best
compared to the regular skittles
because the regular skittles aren't sour.
Vroom Vroom
People use me like a luxury and drive me fast.
Sometimes my owner takes me to the track
In the weekends and everytime her goes
He drives me like a lightning bolt in a thunderstorm.
From here and there he take me out of the garage
And other times he leaves me in the garage
for me to not gain miles and lose value so later
if he wants to sell me he is not gonna supposed
Reduce my selling price.
Every friday he washes me outside of the garage
And leaves as clean like a diamond.
