“Ideas in the Clouds” by WITS Student Flavia Sethy

Ideas in the Clouds

Take me home
………what is that
can we start
……….do we ever
Why do you fly, not walk
……….Why do you walk, not fly
Who are you
……….Who are you
Why is the sky beautiful
……….is anything
Give me an answer
……….are there answers
Are we there yet
……….are we ever
Where are we
………..where we started


Flavia Sethy wrote this poem while a student at Hamilton International Middle School with WITS Writer-in-Residence Brian Dang. Flavia read this poem to open our SAL Presents event with Rick Steves on November 10, 2022.
