Mrs. Likkel’s Freshman English students wrote a plethora of impressive poems. This Biblical illusion poem is written by Owen Day.
Not a manjust a boy
not a sword
just a sling
doubt was not seen
not even a shadow of it
physical strength seemed absent
empowered by faith only
battling against unimaginable adversity
with a flick of a wrist
an arm turned to cannon
a rock turned to boulder
a giant turned to dwarf
