3. I am strong and determined
I wonder what it feels like to soar like a bird
I hear fairies tap dancing on my windowsill
I see unicorns galloping though the forest
I want to be remembered when I die
I pretend I am 16 again without a care in the world
I feel butterflies fluttering in my stomach
I touch Santa’s beard
I worry about people dying
I cry when I lose important people in my life
I understand that life is tough
I say “You can’t cry over spilt milk”
I dream I am a ballarina on stage
I try to look for the best in people
I hope I am raising my daughter right

16. DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT --Dylan Thomas Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rage at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

17. Dying men who see death Try not to see what’s coming die happy
