I Am by James Born
I am love in the face of hate
I am kindness in the face of ridicule
I am strength in the face of diversity
I am patience in the face of the mule
I will not run away from fear, I will not run and hide
I am bravery, I am pride
I will make a difference in this world, big or small
That is my promise to me , my promise to all
I am kindness in the face of ridicule
I am strength in the face of diversity
I am patience in the face of the mule
I will not run away from fear, I will not run and hide
I am bravery, I am pride
I will make a difference in this world, big or small
That is my promise to me , my promise to all

I was reading this poem and at the end he writes" I WILL make a difference in this world, big or small. That is my promise to me, my promise to all". James, you have already made a difference in this world by writing that poem. For 13 years old, you are a very smart young man! I also like how you promised yourself first, BEFORE anyone else. Hopefully other people who read this will realize that they need to put themselves first before anyone. - Ashley |
