I Am...

Poems written from the perspective of an Arctic Region

I am cold and white

I wonder if I will be warm someday

I hear footsteps of penguins

I see whales

I want more penguins to live on me

I am cold and white

 

I pretend that I see a million people

I feel people's feet

I touch the beautiful snow

I worry that I might be uninhabited

I cry for the baby penguins

I am cold and white

 

I say that I am alive

I dream that I am a person

I try to move

I hope that I can be a real person

I am cold and white

-Jacob A.

 

I am large and lovable

I wonder if the explorers like me

I hear the penguins chirping

I see the clouds rolling in

I want to be in peace

I am large and lovable

 

I pretend I am a large cloud

I feel the front on my skin

I touch the ocean so cold and blue

I worry I may come to the end soon

I cry when the penguins are sad

I am large and lovable

 

I understand that I have to be strong

I say I can do anything

I dream that I could stay

I try my best for the world

I hope that I can make it

I am large and lovable

-Sarah M

I am cold and icy

I wonder if I'll see the light of day

I see the blinding snow

I want to be warm

I am cold and icy

 

I pretend I am on the beach

I feel very cold

I touch the freezing water

I worry I'll break in half

I cry when I see the death of an innocent penguin

I am cold and icy

 

I understand the cycle of life

I say nothing! I'm silent

I dream of a carefree world

I try to not interfere with the world around me

I hope I won't break

I am cold and icy

-Sarah W

I am cold and snowy

I wonder why the Inuit sled racer

I hear the wind cry

I see a white blanket

I want to be noticed

I am cold and snowy

 

I pretend I am invisible

I feel like a wet blanket

I touch the water and the waves of the sea

I worry if the people like me

I cry when someone leaves me out

I am cold and snowy

 

I say snow is fun

I dream of being at a beach

I try to understand hard things

I hope I won't melt

I am cold and snowy

-Alex

I am white and bumpy

I wonder if people ever some here

All I hear is wind

The only thing I see is is penguins on the white surface

I want to walk

I pretend to be human

I feel cold

I touch water and snow

I worry about oil diggers

I cry when I feel lonely

I am white and bumpy

 

I understand it when nobody comes to visit

an old and cold continent

I say that octopi live under me

I dream that someday people come to visit me

I try to be attractive

I hope people remember me

I am white and bumpy

I feel like an avalanche of snowballs

I touch the beautiful, icy floors

I worry if I will ever break down

I am below freezing and icy

I winder if I will be forgotten

I hear the penguins cry

I see the sun glaring on the snow

I want the penguins to stay with me

I am below freezing and icy

 

I pretend that I am the best

I feel that I am left out sometimes

I touch the penguins feet while they waddle

I worry if I will melt

I cry when I see penguins die

I am below freezing and icy

 

I understand what the penguins say

I say that I am the best place for penguins

I dream that I'm not cold

I try to be great

I hope that I'll still be remembered in 100 years

I am below freezing and icy
