Monet Jorgenson is again a published poet

Submitted by carey.white on

Springville High student, Monet Jorgenson (a Junior), will soon have another literary work published.  Her latest publish piece is titled ​"Girl" and it's a dictionary poem. Dictionary poems follow the format of stating a word (the title of the piece) and then giving two or three "definitions", which act as the main body of the poem.

“I don't quite know what inspired me, but the message I was trying to get across was that girls have power. They are forces of nature, not to be messed with,” said Jorgenson.
