Writing Prompt: Who Is Me?
Today's Writing Prompt is inspired by 10th-grader Annakai Geshlider, who won a Gold Medal in the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards for her Poetry. This excerpt is from the poem titled "Page for English 2B/Drinking Words Out of the Corner of My Mouth" (inspired by Langston Hughes' "Theme for English B").
Who is me? I am . . .
dark brown ratty curls on my head and bracelets on my wrist, a
backpack that pulls me down when I ride the 24,
hard bones and skin on a scraped hand to hold my pen or tap on
a keyboard, ragged eyes after no sleep,
stretching my mouth wide to laugh roar sing sharp
with guitar.
Pretty awesome, right? Now we want to hear about YOU! Write your own "Who is me?" poem and leave it in the Comments. Only, please don't include any details that would reveal your actual identity, like your address or school or anything like that. Also, don't include more than 1 detail about what you look like. We want to keep you safe!

Who is me?
i am a writer, reader, actor
I have brown hair that looks too thick for my small head
I am someone who's a loner always surviving on my own without anyone's help
I am sad because i feel like i am someone who doesn't look pleasing to the eye
And I am sad because my family breaks apart starting with my parent's divorce and my mom and step dad fighting with my her mom

I am a girl who has many friends
I am a girl who loves to enjoy smelling the old pages of a book
I am a girl who is loved by her lord Jesus christ
I am I girl who loves to run in to my Dad's arms
I am a girl who appreciates my step Dad's kindness to us
I am a girl who loves to hug my mom every night so that i can tell her how much i love her

I'm a dancer, a hyper energetic girl. I can sing. I can dream. I can write. What more do you want to know? I'm short,I'm teased. But I keep on going. I'm a talented girl and no one can hold me back. I can find something in technology in a flash. Don't tell me I'm perfect even though I'm pretty. I'm who I am and no one is perfect.

A fourth grade girl,
An athlete,
A musician,
The biggest Hunger Games fan!!!!
A girl with blue eyes like the sky,

and a great friend.
Now some of these may seem kind of braggy, but it's just the truth!

Who Is Me...?
I am beautiful, golden, short, wavy, hair,
eyes that mesmerize any boy that sees them,
A voice that's not too high, yet not too low pierces the air as I speak not loud, but not low either,
I am sitting and talking with my friends at a table,
The smell of the cafeteria has already settled,
I am at school, wishing that lunch would hurry up and be over with so that I can get back to what I do best,
Writing.
