When I was younger, I used to teach kids on the street every weekend to share what I'd learned in school. I also used to teach my younger sister and it makes me happy to know that somehow I am helping my fellow youngsters in learning new things.
My heart was in pure bliss when I heard the news about the student who was also teaching kids on the street and suddenly I missed the town I grew up in, I missed the children listening to the lessons I would teach.
When we moved to this province, I still did not stop teaching instead I wrote what I had experienced in the form of literature.
Carving a Heroine
If only I could talk to my younger self.
I want to imprint this on her heart, "You're such a great role model."
My heart is in pure bliss to remember that you used to teach kids on the street every weekend-
to share what you have learned
and to spread hope to every child
who listens to you.
I could still feel the fire
that lies inside you,
you didn't even realize that time,
you already gave them the key to their future.
As I was writing you on this poetry,
I saw that everyone could be a hero-
even if you're young.
It's not just about saving lives
but also on how you are well
dedicated to give knowledge to
everyone.
On a simple act of kindness,
They can trail it back every time
because no one will steal
what you had carved.
