This Poem is about a bad choice I made in 4th grade
I was about ten
I wanted to be "normal"
I followed everyone to the bars
It was one hand
Then another
It's not like I knew
It would hurt
I bent my knees
Just a little
So my feet
Would come off the platform
My hands, they started to sweat
I was on those wood chips
No one would let me move
I wanted my mommy
But my dad came
"I want the ring"
It was home on the entertainment center
Nothing went my way that day
"You are not allowed near monkey bars again"
When we are children we want to be like everyone else, and when we are different we feel that somehow that is a bad thing, but thats not true at all, we are all unique beings God did not create us as cookie cuter images, but he did create us in his image, so no matter what we go through Christ is there for us, and he cherish the little children especially, this is an excellent reminder of wanting to fit in and finding out that no one can really fit into a mold. I hope this was not to painful a lesson
God Bless
