By Jade, age 14
I Feel:
Passionate, daring, wild
I am:
Loving sister to Mike
I love:
Freedom, hearty laughter, rain
I’m touched by:
Compassion, a baby’s trusting face
I couldn’t live without:
Music, the untamed sea, red roses,
Nature, my supportive family
I Value:
Acceptance, forgiveness, honesty
I have:
Bitterness, tears, cruel deaths
I wish I had:
Grace of a ballerina, eyes of a poet,
Hands of a doctor
I dream about:
Female American president, equality,
Smiles not tainted by hate
This is me!
