Monrovia

With the sun shining bright,

The grass is always green,

The plants are always in bloom.

Neighborhood kids are playing,

The game of Hide N’ Go Seek.

The young ones are running,

Through waterfalls from the ground.

As the sun goes down,

The streets go quiet.

That is until,

The big kids come out.

Play all night,

Sleep all day.

The shadows with weapons,

Are in the alleyways, waiting.

At the end of the night,

And beginning of the day,

The Wildcat mascot stays proud.

Wild but tamed in many ways,

No city compares, to Monrovia.

Chelsea Wolfe

I have my masters in English & Creative Writing! I'm a mom of two girls and a Husky pup. I'm usually a late-night writer, but I have had to adapt due to kids, work, and having a social life. Now I write every chance I get. I'm constantly looking for other writers to connect with because only writers understand the struggles of writing. I typically write New Adult and I've been dipping my hand in multiple subgenres to fit my interests at the time. This leaves me with multiple projects going at once. If I'm not writing, I can usually be found cuddling in my favorite corner of my mini library reading a book (usually my kids are reading their books with me) or out in the city for a girl's night.
