Some kids in my classroom try to keep it down.
But when something fun is going on,
Our voices make the classroom so happy.
Our voices are louder than a protest.
My classroom voices are loud, but loving.
Our voices are like rock and roll.
Our voices are fluffy and wet like clouds.
When the class’s voice is quiet,
it is soft and breezy.
My mind is like a band so many noises.
Sometimes positive. most of the time negative.
Negative because people are mean,
where I live and where I don’t.
Positive because of music like Spotify
and the flute.
Negative because of overprotective things.
Negative because of bad feelings.
I might not show it, but I sure do feel it.
Negative because life is hard.
Positive because that’s how I’ll grow.
My voice is like a singing bird in a tree.
My voice is a fast-racing car.
I’m short, but I can play sports.
I can be small, but I will be tall.

I have a poem
and it is for you.
There was once a goddess,
Beautiful and bright.
She could be wrong.

She made us in soil.
Gave us light.
We grew up
strong, big and bright.
We are all like animals.
