my poem
Gabe Cratcha
What I'm All About
My name is not inportant should anyone know anything about me. I am the utmost different,
unique in my own ways. I come from a house where physical things mean nothing without family.
Bonding over sports or whatever I can to make the world a little more innocent. As for me
it is the sport of rugby with my brother. The adrenaline when the coach blows the whistle
means players are going to get knocked down if they dont get moving
But it always wasent this way it could be anything I can could have done to bond with my family. It
could be helping Mom cook in the kitchen from playing catch with my Dad in the backyard.
The memroies are nice,sweet like when we were kids going in a candy shop, picking from so much
candy my dreams high with my imagination filled with hopes and dreams protected by nothing but my
parents.
But then I grew up and releize that the moon doesnt have legs to follow you. The world hits us like
a bull and you start to cherish the little things that you still have. For me it is my lucky wolf
claw, I wear it to every rugby game but dare not wear it so that it wont get broke at least I can
protect that.
This is who I am. This is what makes me human, the choices I make. The ability to learn from
my mistakes while I am young. This is were greatness if formed. This is where I can get back
up when the world knockes me down and say lets go again. I have a choice in that moment and that
choice will stay with me forever and never go away so I try to make the right one. I can choose
to make my own difference. This is what I are. This is what i'm all about.
