I don't care if people stare
or gawk or gaze or look.
And I don't care if people think that
I face I wear is one
I really took.
I don't care if people say
I'm a rat, hippo or pig.
I don't care if people think
that the hair that is mine is really
a long silky wig.
I don't care if people say
I look like a baboon
and I don't care if people think
that I'm as fat as a full moon.
Cause I am what I am
I I is what I is
And that's what I like about me.

My Journey to Florida
By Hannah

It’s a 3 or 4 hour trip to Fort Meyers, Florida. That’s where we land when we go to Sanibel Island. We rent a car and drive across a bridge on a little of the ocean. Then we drive to our house. The house that we go to is just for our family and relatives. My great grandpa had the house built. It is just up the hill from the beach. One time when we were coming to the house from the beach, I saw a tortoise on the path. My mom said it was probably a Gopher Tortoise. I felt proud of myself because I spotted the tortoise. It was in the bushes then slowly walked across the path. We collect shells every day. Sometimes we go to “Ding” Darling. “Ding” Darling is a place where animals can come and go as they want. You can either go in your car or you can walk. We see Mango Tree Crabs, raccoons, alligators, and all sorts of birds. There are Anhinga, Egrets, Herons, and your everyday songbird. My dad teases me whenever we go there about falling into the swamp with alligators. Being in Florida makes me happy. I love the sound of the waves and the smell of the sea. I love having wildlife all around me. I love Florida.
