It's My Turn

People say I should be seen,and not heard.
They think there is no power, behind my words.
They don't understand. I have something to say.
Instead they keep telling me, to go out and play.
Not this time. It's my turn. I've found my voice.
Sit down! Shut up! Freedom of speech is my choice.
I have thoughts on the world, how it should be.
I have plans to help all of humanity.
I have views on how to help out the Earth.
I have dreams of being married and childbirth.
I've learned about Science,and I've learned about Math.
But you don't see that I have laid out my own path.
They try to take away my freedom of opinion and views.
But understand this, the rainbow comes in seven hues.
I can walk away now, with my head held high.
If you need me, I'll be playing outside.

Naturally I would love this poem....because all my life no one was interested in anything I had to say.....I was treated like I was invisible until it came time to beat....then I was one always chosen.
I've always wondered, if perhaps that's why I'm the say I am now...full of a million words, and lots of poems to say them in.!
This was really an outstanding poem.....my sentiments exactly
enjoyed it tremendously
love,
consue |
