We had to do a Slam Poetry Contest, and this was my poem. It was one of my real near death experiences, so I hope you like it.
I see my baby sister looking at me through the nursery glass
I see my first day of school, and my favorite teacher's class
I feel the victory as I score my first goal
Who would have thought that these moments excited my soul?
I see me standing at my first concert on the stage
I remember the softness of my first rabbit, and freeing her from her cage
I see the first time I ever received a rose
These moment are the ones that I love so!
Soon I hear the sirens and smell the smoke
Its everywhere and it makes me want to choke
They won't get to the accident in time
So maybe my thoughts will be sold for a dime
I know my time is soon, but I want to see the world again
Maybe be a singer, or even a comedian
If they get to me, it could be a crazy notion
Soon I'm ready to go, but my eyes fly open.
