I am Grateful
by Elle Dimos, Wesley College Melbourne
Finalist, Foundation – Year 2, written poetry
I have a lot of gratitude,
And things I’d like to say.
Like all the things I’m happy for,
Every single day.
I’m thankful for my family,
That keep me nice and safe.
I’m thankful for my friends,
Who always make me smile.
I’m thankful for my teacher,
Who teaches me new things.
The trees, the bees, the flowers,
That make me want to sneeze “achoo”.
The sun, the sky a rainbow that fill my heart with joy.
All these things and so much more,
I’m very grateful for.
‘A lovely poetic voice, a joy to see it come to life.’
