Poems by Exceptional Child SHAMIKA B.

I NEED A FRIEND

All by myself I can play game
But I need a friend to come over to my house
All by myself I can do my homework
But I need a friend to help me check it correctly
All by myself I can go outside
But I need a friend to come with me everywhere.

All by myself I can cook
But I need a friend to bake a cake for my mom
All by myself I can go to school
But I need a friend to walk with me on the way
All by myself I can do my hair
But I need a friend to help me do my hair better.

I USED TO…BUT NOW I…

I used to be a baby
But now I am a kid
I used to be in the 6th grade
But now I am in the 7th grade
I used to be a kitty cat
But now I am a star
I used to be bad
But now I am good
I used to be 4 years old
But now I am 12 years old
I used to be a baby girl
But now I am a big girl
I used to be sleep all the time
But now I don’t anymore
I used to be not so good at jumping ropes
But now I am good at jumping ropes
I used to be not so good in Math
But now I am good in Math

I am Shamika B.


AUTUMN AND FALL

I worry about autumn
I hear the sound of the leaves falling
I see the leaves brown and red
I want to play in the leaves.
I understand everything about autumn
I say I am a nice girl
I dream about fall
I hope to see autumn again
I am a nice girl.




I AM...

I am Shamika
I like to play my game
I wonder where I am going
I hear people playing music and people dancing
I see people playing outside
I want to go home and go to sleep
I am going shopping.

I pretend being a star
I feel good about myself because I am now in Grade 7
I touch a dog and as if it wants to bite
I worry about me going to school my first day
I cry about sad movies
I am going to play with my sister today.
