My Poems

Winner

 

You are a winner just by being in the Special Olympics,

Because it does not matter if you are black or white

Green or yellow or how you act or whether you have a disability or not.

 

You are a winner because of who you are,

Not what you are.

Don’t let others tell you any different.

 

You are a winner

No matter if you win or loose.

If you win that’s great;

If you lose, you just have to work harder to win.

 

For me winning means getting my Swimming times down.

Some Athletes just care if they get first, 2nd, or third places.

They don’t pay attention about their strokes.

They just like winning,

But not me.

 

You can be more than just a winner.

There’s ALPs which gives me a sense of accomplishments.

I am more then a winner in ALPs,

Because I help make Special Olympics better in my County

And, I like helping others.

 

You Can Be Someone like Me

 

I am someone who’s special.

Not because I have a handicapped.

Not because I’m in the Special Olympics.

But because I try my hardest

To accomplish things in life.

By trying to help others the best way I can.

Buy helping the Special Olympics become better

For the athletes.

By helping my friends.

By being the best that I can be in life.

And more.

 

You can be someone like me

By trying to do the best you can be every day.

By helping others every day.

It does not matter what you do.

As long as you try and make this world a better place.

 

Friendship

 

Friendship is

Being there for them

When they need you the most.

 

Friendship is

Hanging out with that person

Just for fun.

 

Friendship is

Knowing when to care

About that person

At the right time.

 

Friendship is

Knowing when to share

Your stuff with that person

 

Friendship is

Knowing that you’ll be there for them

At the right moment.

 

Friendship is

Knowing when to share you’re feeling.

 

Friendship is

Knowing when to give that person

The right advice to give
