Yazmin Flores

Yazmin Flores is from Birmingham, Alabama. She is currently a student at Auburn University studying Creative Writing. On any given day, you can find her with a green tea lemonade in hand and listening to Taylor Swift on repeat.

“December 4, 2012; Eleven Days Until Christmas,” “February 14, 2018; A Sunny Day” and “We’ve Seen Too Much”

A picturesque day
in Newtown: scattering
clouds danced joyfully,
making playful shapes,
monkeys and rhinos
followed the children
from car to classroom.
Sun rays shone warmly
above, soon to reveal
the twenty-six halos of
innocent souls.
