LISA ZHENG
Sonoma County Youth Poet Laureate, 2024-25
Lisa Zheng is a sophomore at Maria Carrillo High School. She is a Poetry Out Loud class winner and a volunteer at the Charles Schulz museum in Santa Rosa. In Lisa's own words: Poetry is an empty Google Doc or a fresh leaf of paper where I can escape the rigid rules of school essays and pour my rawest experiences out. I sometimes even translate prose into rhythmic ballads by the piano. I am a “word nerd”: I like the elegance of specific words together and experimenting with unconventional syntax…My main purpose behind writing these poems, besides personal catharsis, is to give a voice to the psychological turmoils that many teens experience that are often kept in the dark due to shame of admittance, and give them a dose of hope and cause for change.”
SABINE WOLPERT
Sonoma County Youth Poet Ambassador 2024-25
Sabine Wolpert is a senior at Analy High School. She is active in the leadership of many clubs including Analy Activist Club, Analy Zero Waste Club, Analy Eco Club, and more. In her own words: "Writing is one of my favorites because it allows me to express myself and process the beautiful and vast world around me. Writing also allows me to explore new parts of myself and the things around me that I am curious about. I deeply value connection to the land and to the people around me. Growing up in community, I have truly learned the importance of this connection and how art can be a beautiful way to cultivate relationships. I hope to grow up to create a more positive and equitable world through whatever career I decide to pursue. Most of all, I want to chase joy and wonder."
Washairi wa California katika Shule Wanatafuta Inayofuata
Mshairi wa Vijana Mshindi wa Kaunti ya Sonoma
Washairi wa Kaunti ya Sonoma ya California Shuleni wanalenga kumtambua mwanafunzi ambaye amepata umahiri katika ushairi. Kwa hili, tutamtaja Mshairi wa Kijana anayefuata Tuzo ya Mshairi wa Kaunti ya Sonoma mnamo Septemba, 2021. Tutamuunga mkono kijana huyu kama kiongozi anayechipukia wa sanaa katika kaunti - ambaye anasaidia kuinua hadhi ya ushairi na kukuza hadhira yake.
Mahususi:
Mwanafunzi huyu anafaa kuwa kati ya miaka 13 na 19.
Ni lazima wawe wakazi wa kaunti wanaotarajia kusalia katika kaunti hiyo kati ya Septemba 2021 na Agosti 2022.
Wanapaswa pia kuonyesha kujitolea kwao kwa sanaa ya fasihi na ushiriki wa jamii kupitia kushiriki katika huduma za kujitolea na jamii, vilabu, shughuli za baada ya shule, na shughuli za ziada za masomo.
Washairi wa California katika Shule watasimamia programu hii kama mshirika wa kieneo wa Urban Word.
Mshindi wa Tuzo ya Mshairi wa Vijana atahudumu kwa muhula wa mwaka mmoja na anatarajiwa kushiriki katika angalau hafla nne za umma.
YPL itapokea posho ya $500 na mkataba wa uchapishaji wa kitabu cha kazi yao, au anthology inayojumuisha kazi yao na ile ya waliofika fainali.
Utaratibu:
Uteuzi wa YPL unaweza kutoka kwa shirika lolote au mtu binafsi.

Tutatuma ombi kwa yeyote anayeomba. Tafadhali wasiliana na meg@cpits.org ili kuomba.
Kwa maombi, mashairi matatu ya mwanafunzi lazima yawasilishwe, jumla ya si zaidi ya kurasa kumi.
Kwa waliohitimu, mfadhili wa watu wazima atahitajika kutoa barua ya msaada.
Kamati ya washairi wa ndani wanaoheshimika itapitia maombi na kuchagua waliohitimu.
Wahitimu wataombwa kuhudhuria kikao cha kuhukumu ili uwezo wao wa kuwasilisha mashairi yao kwa ufanisi (pamoja na kuandika mashairi mazuri) uweze kutathminiwa.

ZOYA AHMED
Mshairi wa Vijana wa Kaunti ya Sonoma, 2020-21
Zoya Ahmed alihudumu kama Mshindi wa kwanza wa Mshairi wa Vijana wa Kaunti ya Sonoma mnamo 2020-21. Zoya alihudhuria Shule ya Upili ya Maria Carrillo katika Kaunti ya Sonoma. Zoya anakumbatia asili yake tofauti kama kizazi cha kwanza cha Waamerika Kusini mwa Asia, akiwa na asili zote mbili nchini Pakistan na India. Urithi huu wa kupendeza ndio msukumo wake. Kila siku Zoya anawezeshwa kufanya kazi kwa bidii ili kufikia malengo yake, akinyenyekezwa na fursa anazopewa, na kuhamasishwa kurudisha nyuma kwa jamii. Wachochezi wake wakubwa ni wazazi wake na familia yake, ambao humtia moyo kila siku. Wao ni makumbusho yake; zinaashiria maana ya dhabihu katika maisha yake. Hadithi zao, haswa za wanawake katika familia ya Zoya, ndizo zinazompa uandishi cheche ya ubunifu na mtazamo.
