I want to be able to comprehend intricate and complex poetry. I want to be very smart, not at chemistry or in math - even though it would be immensely helpful to be talented in those areas right now - I want to be worldly smart. I want to know big words and current events and astounding, old books and important people. I want to know the earth and how it breathes and thrives when we aren’t touching it. I want to learn how to play the ukulele and I want to write my own terrible songs to sing while playing the ukulele. I want to be kind to everyone, especially myself. I don’t want to be on my phone. I want to go places and hear new things and touch new people and become a different person. I want to write my own poetry. I want to make people smile really big and genuine. I want to build a whole castle around myself with love and kisses and warm embraces and fragments of fond memories and I want to invite all the beautiful people in the world to dinners there every friday and I want us to eat fresh food and bathe in each other’s light and laughter and even though i have a thousand bedrooms in my castle I want us all to crowd into my HUGE living room and throw couch cushions and pillows all over the floor and sleep under big fluffy warm blankets and all breathe in unison.
This world is so vivid and I want to dedicate more of my life to appreciating what it, and life, has to offer. By: Jay Stabler - 10th grade
