After the discussion came out a list of twenty interesting things she could do. Of the many things on the list, one was to write one poem every month. The little girl started writing, and as she wrote her initial few poems, she started enjoying it, and yes, she certainly did not stop at twelve poems. Her love for poetry kept growing every week, and she wrote fifty-two poems over fifty-two weekends of the year! This book is a collection of those poemspoems that are funny, scary, mystical, hilarious, thoughtful, inspiring, wishful, naughty, conversational, introspective, and relatable across age groups!
