Securing the second-place position in the Rhapsody & Rhythm Poetry Contest is not just a personal achievement for Hall but a moment of validation and encouragement. Reflecting on this experience, Hall recounts the challenge of balancing her passion for poetry with the demands of her final year in high school, a period marked by procrastination and last-minute inspirations. Yet, it was this very poem, crafted under the pressure of a looming deadline, that garnered her the esteemed award.

Inspiration and Overcoming Stagnation

The Power of Music and Nature

When faced with writer's block, Hall turns to music and the tranquility of the night sky, seeking inspiration in the harmony of sounds and the serene beauty of the moon. These moments of contemplation and connection with the natural world reinvigorate her creative spirit.

A Feeling You Cannot Ignore

Love.

A funny yet peculiar term,

That we as humans sometimes

Fail to understand but cannot ignore.

Like a papercut on the tip of your finger,

You fail to realize it is there.

That is until you notice, the essence of life

oozing from your delicately knitted skin.

Falling in love is a magical feeling but

the idea of the fall should never be questioned.

To love is to find beauty in what the world diminishes and calls ugly.

Even when strangers point their fingers and snicker,

Because true love is what some people call

Love above the label.
