The National League of American Penwomen (NLAPW) has recognized sophomore Hannah Morris, for her poem, “Journeys.” At last Saturday’s 58th Annual Poetry Contest hosted by the Central New York Branch, Hannah read her Group IV (grades 9-12) winning poem aloud.

The reception and presentation of awards was held at Northminster Presbyterian Church in North Syracuse.

The NLAPW is composed of professional writers, artists, composers and lecturers. The Central New York Branch of the NLAPW has promoted and encouraged the development of creative talents through this contest for 58 years.

Journeys

By Hannah Morris

Constant journeys, back and forth

Journey south, journey north

Slipping and sliding on swirling snow

Sometimes fast, sometimes slow

Speeding under the shining sun

Sometimes just for tons of fun

Going here, going there

Machines in states of disrepair

Babies crying in brand new cars

Rusting pickups under the stars

Everyone’s on a different journey

To a doctor, an attorney

But everyone out on a roam

Is eventually returning home

To a new home or an old home,

But home at last

>From constant journeys, back and forth
