a poem a day!!!!!!!!!

OK, so, right now my students are all freaking out because I assigned one poem a day for the whole month. YEAH!!!!!! EVIL!!!!!!!! Here is my first one.
Everyone is concerned with
what lies deep within
the heart and soul and such things
But it is in your face
that I see you
a shallow, light-filled stream
laughing across the surface
And I am sure that
your bedrock is down there
hardened and broken
but on this leafless spring morning
I am looking for the sun.
