Art makes me smart So I'm not like a jam ****. Eating ice cream makes me beam Like a beautiful queen. Playing cool games with my friends Brings up fashionable new trends. Writing stories of all kinds Helps me to open up my mind. Wearing the mot gorgeous dress Shining and glittering like a princess. Baking stuff is so much fun Especially when you make a delicious chocolate bun. Watching action programmes on TV Helps me learn great moves from Jet Li. Seeing birds flying high, spreading their wonderful wings, These are some of my favourite things.
I wrote this poem at the age of 11 (2008/2009) it was selected and published in the Young Writer's 'My favourite things' anthology - created to give a sense of pride and accomplishment to young writers.
