little me


If I could go and get a tattoo right now I would get my nieces name and birthday on my shoulder. I’d get the ink in black and pink because those are two of my favorite colors. I want to do this because my niece was born six weeks early and was in a hospital for a while before she was healthy and strong enough to go home. She was also named after me and acts so much like me so it’s just amazing to see a little me walking around and I love it. I love having her around because she’s so smiley, happy and joyful to be around.

poem



Sandra
Who is helpful, hard working and colorful
Who writes about poetry
Who loves animals, colors and writing
Who feels happy
Who says “I try to be as honest about what I see and to speak rather than be silent, especially if it means I can save lives, or serve humanity.”
Who gives education
Who is known for writing poems
Who has worked as a teacher and a counselor
Whose parents are Mexican and Chicana
Who is funcionamiento y colorido provechosos, duros
Who is a resident of America
