An "I Am" Poem by Alexis

I am a friendly girl who loves kittens.

I wonder what my life will be like as an adult.
I hear the clicking of my brain when I solve a problem.
I see the fire in my sister's eyes when she gets competitive.
I want to be at the top of my class.
I am a friendly girl who loves kittens.

I pretend to be a cat that lives in a forest.
I feel like I'm a three year old sometimes.
I touch the moon and the stars at night.
I worry that a fire will destroy my house.
I cry when I do something wrong.
I am a friendly girl who loves kittens.

I understand that you can't be perfect the first time.
I say that nobody's perfect.
I dream that everyone is treated equally.
I try to feel sympathy for others.
I hope my pets don't die any time soon.
I am a friendly girl who loves kittens.
