Student Poetry Competition 2026 Finalist: Me

Me

by Jade Josev-Delaney, Antonio Park Primary School
Years 3 – 4 Written Poetry Finalist

The wind dances, knotting my hair

I love this place, here and there.

The ocean waves, the seagulls chirp

The sun shines, and the wind curls around my finger

I don’t let the bad feelings linger, here.

 

This is the place where my mind goes wild

Even though I’m just a child

I am a poet

This is where my poems come from and I know it.

Here, I am creative, I am kind, and I have a master mind

I am who I’ve always wanted to be.

In their own words
