2007 HONORABLE MENTION

(UNTITLED)
Hannah Callahan
16 years old, New York

There is an emptiness,
But a fulfilling one.
There is a silence,
But a lyrical one.
There is a rest,
But a zealous one.

He lives humbly,
But contentedly.
And he eats little,
But plentifully.
To ask for more
Would lead to unrest,
And thus he knows:
This is peace.
