poetry – Uncommon Rachel

Chicken

an ode to my neighbor’s chickens

A limerick about St. Patrick’s Day

A haiku about the weather today

A poetic reflection on self-discovery, breaking free from external validation, and embracing a future defined by personal joy and independence.

A poem narrating sailors who delight in the calming Cerulean Sea, enjoying summer swims and recalling their love for sailing.

Prose reflecting on fear amidst a tumultuous sea, realization that solitude costs companionship and safety with a partner in the world.

Rachel joined a local writing group and found it to be a supportive and productive environment, leading to newfound inspiration.
