I Was

I was browsing the books in the library when I came across a familiar cardboard with a poem written on it. It was an “I AM” project I made in grade school in which I had to make a poem about myself. The first two words of every line provided by our teacher: an “I” followed by a verb. Funny how a 10-year-old poem still describes me now. My aspirations have definitely changed though.

I AM

I am creative and shy

I like to think I’m creative. Ha-ha. A lot of my friends might disagree about the shy part but really, I am. I’m so shy that I wouldn’t even raise my hands in class.

I imagine our broomsticks floating in the air

Ha! I knew I was made for Hogwarts!

I listen to the songs of giants echoing on the clouds

Don’t ask.

I watch Jupiter and Pluto exchanging places

I don’t get either.

I like to make people happy

Really? :O

I am creative and shy

I wish to have a loyal friend

I dream to become a lawyer someday

Oh God, no.

I believe in miracles

I do.

I hope to graduate Grade 6

I did. Yay! I can’t believe I didn’t hope for something else :)))

I think I am tired

I am creative and shy
