Be Positive

I will be the person everyone loves The student a teacher won’t forget I’ll be outspoken in a crowd The person whom everyone has met I will not be shy Or keep anything to myself I will be compassionate And always there to help I will not be a face in the crowd I will let you know I’m here I will use my voice And I will not give into fear I am intelligent and beautiful And today is a beautiful day And if I do the best I can The rest will fall into place… By Micah Dillon, GHC Student
