If I were to write a poem about my life, two themes that I could portray would be laughter and freedom.  I chose these themes because when you meet me you will quickly learn that I laugh a lot. Sometimes maybe a little bit too much and maybe at the wrong time. I laugh at stupid jokes and even serious things I try to always find the positive and find something to laugh at. I also chose freedom because my parents trust me a lot and allow me to do lots of things on my own.

I chose this poem because I feel the first part shows freedom, that they loose track of time because they aren't worried about it and it also talks about laughter too and how laughter will help you.

Summer Cycle

The sun it kiss my cheek yeah that feels fine
the breeze it strokes my feet that feels fine
losing the track of the time
confused in a sun covered time

birdsong is all i hear while i am hear
im lost but cannot see these things i feel
circles appear in my mind
floating through space and through time

you might feel laughter in the sun
but laughter might help us when were done
you might feel laughter in the sun

but laughter might help us when were done

Bullying

A few years ago when I was in grade 6 I was having a birthday party and I was taking a bunch of friends up to my cottage. At the time I had two different groups of friends and I wasn’t sure if they would get along or not so I was a little nervous to see how it would go.  The car ride up was a little awkward but things seemed to be going smoothly…not for long though. As soon as we got there we decided to choose who would sleep in what bed and of course because I was the birthday girl everyone jumped to be beside me. The end result was all the girls from one group beside me and the one girl who didn’t know anyone else was all alone of the other side of the room. This was the start of a terrible weekend. All weekend I didn’t realize it but most of the girls were being really rude and excluding one of the girls. Now that I look back on it I was also contributing to it and made her feel really bad about her self. In the end we all went home and the girl and me talked about it and I apologized for what I did and we agreed to never hangout with the other girls in a group anymore. At the time I didn’t realize how rude I was being to the other girl and didn’t realize how much of an impact my actions had on her.
