Beatrice’s poetry

Beatrice writes about lots of different topics. She writes poems about different emotions, stress and also the memories of people who have passed away. She has written two books. One is called ‘Tales of Ether: Stories of Wonder’. And the other is called ‘Tales of Terra: Poems of Life’. These books are full of different stories and poetry. Beatrice has dedicated her books to her teacher and to her niece.
My Epilepsy

On the day I found that I had epilepsy,
it was hard for me to understand and take in
my lifestyle had to change a lot
which was not easy for me to do
I had to be bit more careful when out and about.

My epilepsy makes me very speedy and chatty
and sometimes unaware of my surrounding
I feel a little spaced out
When I am spaced out, I think I can’t do much on those days.
I feel I’m in a different dimension.
It’s like being in Alice in Wonderland or down
the rabbit hole.

Having epilepsy doesn’t make me any different person
but it makes me a special person to be around
Epilepsy is not something to be afraid of or run away from either

LET EMBRACE IT
LET BE STRONG WITH IT
LET SHARE OUR STORY WITH THE WORLD

My Dyslexia

I wish I was different and not broken
I wish I could hear and understand
I wish I didn’t have dyslexia.
And it is not my fault
I was born with it

But I’m broken
I’m hard of hearing and don’t always understand things
I do have dyslexia and I don’t care
Where I’m broken or not broken
I’m proud of who I am and what I have became in life
