Rebekah's a Poet!

Rebekah was published in her jr. high literary magazine- and she won a prize! Third place for poetry. She is pretty amazing. Here's her poem:

Sea Dance

The crash of the waves
The call of the gulls
The cold, salty air
Blowing on your face
Rushing through your hair
It sets you free
Freer than you could ever imagine
You spread your arms
And dance
You dance with the wind
It lifts you when you fall
It speaks to you
In a language only you and the sea
Understand

In other Rebekah news, she is turning 13 on Sunday. 13! Where has the time gone?
