"I Am"
by Evan O'Connor

I am adventurous and athletic
I wonder what I’m going to be like as an adult
I hear my conscience talking to me
I sometimes see my grandfather when I am alone
I would like to become an astronaut when I’m older
Love my mom and all of my family
I am adventurous and athletic

I pretend that my grandfather is alive
I feel very aware of the world that is going on around me

I feel the smoothness of a baby’s bottom
I worry about losing a loved one
I cry when I am hurt
I smile when someone makes me happy
I am athletic and adventurous
I understand all of the serious things my mom tells me
I say that I am a very funny person
I dream that I will become somebody famous
I try to make my best effort in school
I hope to always get good grades
I am adventurous and Athletic
