I worked with children and babies in Nurseries in the past for 8 years and I loved it. I wrote this poem as part of a workshop for me and my colleagues on a staff training day. My colleagues were very surprised on the day, as they were not aware that I could write poetry, as I had never spoken about my personal writing to them

I Want To Be Me

I want to be me

I want to be open, honest, full of creativity

I want to spread my arms wide

I want you all to walk by my side

I want to be bold, I want to be shy

I want to listen, and listen and learn to ask why?

I want to be a singer, I want to share my voice with you

I want to learn from the children, the environment, not have a blinkered view

I want to learn from you too, I want to share what I know

I want to open my eyes, my heart and my mind, develop and grow

I want to engage with my inner child, I want to be free,

But most of all, I just want to be me

I have always liked to write. I write poetry and short stories, but I have never had the confidence in my writing to try to see it published before, so I am going to give it a try, at last!
