Scholastic Award Winner: Ode to AirPods

Ode to AirPods

Silver Key in Poetry

By Adrian
Grade 9

In realms of sound, where silence once reigned,
Nestled in ears, a new freedom gained,
These carriers of cadences pure and bright,
Sing of unity in the quiet night.

In pockets they lie, small yet profound,
Silent witnesses to a world unbound,
Loyal companions, with power to share,
Charging quietly, they urge us to care.

For moments in solitude, or in life’s busy streams,
They join our voices, and lift all our dreams,
Vibrations penetrate, from ear to heart’s core,
A journey inward, where music flows pure.
In songs that soar, in harmonies that play,
They remind us the soul finds its way.

Through forests of notes, where echoes dance,
In the twinkle of stars, where dreams enhance,
AirPods, the vessels of sound’s gentle muse,
Awaken the soul, with melodies to infuse.
With their help, a higher truth we find,
A bridge to connect heart, soul and mind,
In every tune that they bring along,
Lies the timeless unity of our shared song.
