Thank YOU so much for making what I do, worth it! Stay beautiful <3
My teacher gave me this outline of a poem when I was having a bad day. She told me to follow its guidelines, put it away and look at it again in 6 months.
FIRST STANZA
I am (2 special characteristics you have)
I wonder (something of curiosity)
I hear (an imaginary sound)
I see (an imaginary sight)
I want (an actual desire)
I am (the first line of the poem repeated)
SECOND STANZA
I pretend (something you actually pretened to do)
I feel (a feeling about something imaginary)
I touch (an imaginary touch)
I worry (something that bothers you)
I cry (something that makes you sad)
I am (the first line of the poem repeated)
THIRD STANZA
I understand (something that is true)
I say (something that you believe in)
I dream (something that you dream about)
I try (something you really make an effort about)
I hope (something you actually hope for)
I am (the first line of the poem repeated)
My version:
I am beautiful and understanding
I wonder what my future holds
I hear people cheering
I see my new condo, downtown vancouver
I want to be successful
I am beautiful and understanding
—————————————————-
I pretend I know what I’m doing
I feel glitter raining down on me
I touch lake water between my toes
I worry I wont follow my dreams
I cry that no one will love me
I am beautiful and understanding
—————————————————-
I understand I have to work for what I want
I say “you are who you choose to be”
I dream of being financially secure
I try to be motivated
I hope I meet the man of my dreams
I am beautiful and understanding.
