Moon And Sunshine

Poem to the Moon

Keating- Come on! Does anyone has something to read to us? I want one person to pass today! Come on! Show us your hurt.

N- Hum, Cap, I can try....it's not perfect you know I'm not a poet but...

Keating- It's gonna be perfect. It's your soul it cannot be wrong!

Neil gets up and walk slowly towards the front of the class. He took a deep breath, stressed about reading something he wrote himself. He looked at boys one by one who were supporting hil with à nod, a wink for Charlie and à comforting smile and look from Todd.

N- I like...

Keating- Neil, you're an actor, show us what you feel!

N- Okay, could you please all come closer, it's a personal thing.

Boys of the class didn't wait à second before standing up and forcing half of à circle around Neil who was now sit in a table. Todd was just in front of him and Mr Keating stand sit on another table behind the others
Neil took a deep breath ans started reading with a tone full of emotions, almost whispering as if he was telling a secret, with a tender smil on his face.

N-
  I like the life
  I like the wind in the trees
  I like the rain on the window
  I like the wisthle of birds in the morning
  and I like your cracking voice in the morning
  I like running around the lake
  I like when you watch me running around the lake
  I also like hot chocolate
  I like the nostalgia of the first buterflies
  I like the beauty of theater
  I like the beauty of your eyes
  I like the sunrise and the sunset as the perfect cycle of life
  I like the sound of à warm fireplace
  I like the way your eyes smile
  I like the smell of the small bookcase
  And I like sleeping under the stars
  I love all these little things as long as you are part of them
  I like the idea that you will always. be part of them
  No matter what they say, i'll be     with you soon
  Moon

Mr Keatkng was the first one to clapping, Neil who looked up couldn't take his eyes of Todd's one who looked fascinated and seemed touched by what had just happened.

Charlie- Men! It was awesome!!

Neil- It's repetitive...

Keating- Mr Dalton is right, you might not be a poet, what you just did was impressive! Tou have this thing when you are reading that makes us feel like... like we are jumping in your soul...as if-

Todd- as if we were diving into your heart.

Keating- Yeah, thank you Anderson! That's exactly that! You ate not reading us a poem! Your heart is speaking here! You have a gift Perry, I hope I'll see you on the most famous scenes one day to feel that again...
