One of my students in Connecticut wrote extensively on loneliness and how it is a common theme in young adult literature and it reminded me of e.e. cummings and his poem "l(a)". The poem has always been a piece of art for me - a masterpiece (like Perks) and like Autumn, its leaves, and the changing of seasons.
