SPECIAL ME

A poem composed by Awesome Kids Academy's reading club.  By Chinaza David (Yr2) and Daniella Daniel (Yr 4)   I am tender, delicate and special Treat me nice and teach me right I am the twinkling stars at night, without me, there ’ ll be no light.

Dear Daddy,          Thank you, thank you for raising me different, thank you for teaching me what self love is, for teaching me to be content but also strive hard for what I believe in.

Dreamy drifting panorama, changing every day, Every night your loving smile will be my milky way, The moon will wane before us, sailing there in heaven’s height, For nothing else can challenge our love’s everlasting light. Venus shining on us, glowing soft at our devotion, Our daily drifting dalliance in love’s celestial ocean, I’ll write you lovers’ poetry, and you will be my muse, Orion and Andromeda will oversee our cruise. We’ll sleep with clouds as pillows, maybe steal an angel’s wings, Then fly as magic
