| I AM...3 |
| Based on an exercise done as homework by British schoolchildren, this simple idea produced some wonderfully evocative writing from all ages. And when you're working with teenagers, romance has to come into it... |
| I am Ana I still hear you whispering softly to me� I still see you in my dreams� I still feel the warmth of your smile� I am Ana I pretend not to be afraid� I worry about letting go� I want to release myself from the daily routine� I cry each time I realise I can�t� I am Ana I understand it may be too late� I hope I am wrong� I dream about a happy ending� I try to make that dream come true� I say and promise I actually will� I am Ana I sometimes get confused� I am never certain� I need to sort out my mind� I love� how I wish I could finish this line� (by Ana�) |
| I am Jota I hear the wind whispering my name I see the rays of the sun invading my room I feel angry when someone invades my space I touch people�s hearts when I talk I am Jota I pretend to be angry when I�m not I worry about my friends I want to be a great person when I grow up I cry when I lose a friend I am Jota I understand the misunderstood I hope I�ll go to heaven I dream about a home when black children will play with white ones I try to reach perfection I love my two best girl-friends I am Jota (by Jota, who is a great person already!) |
