Mackinac Island Poem

This is a poem I wrote for my Honors Language Arts class:

The ferry ride was a chance
for the wind to make my hair dance
any way it wanted to

I was amazed at how long it took
to get to this beautiful island
tucked among the salty waves and the beautiful blue sky

My legs were aching with pain
as we climbed up the road
as steep as a mountain

But when we got to the top
and saw the view, pretty as a picture
I knew that no human could ever recreate such a thing as this
