“I Am” Poem

Hello, My Name is Tristan Jene Deen.

 

I am …

Inexperienced and young, I don’t know what I’m doing.

I am …

      All for having fun, especially canoeing.

I am …

      Eating food that’s bad for me, I really don’t care.

I am …

Using my peripheral vision, people hate it when I stare.

I am …

Monster, Peace Tea, and any soft drink, just so long as it tastes good.

I am …

Lazy when I can be, but determined when I should.

I am…

Both a fan and a practitioner of things known as cartoons.

I am …

One brother and two step-sisters, who have me pissed by noon.

I am …

Watching TV when it rains, cuddled up in my snuggie.

I am …

Riding bikes and martial arts, not a fan of rugby.

I am… 

A beautiful shih Tzu named Cocoa, who I positively adore.

I am…

      Walking with Samantha, who I adore even more.

I am …

BBQ ribs and meatball subs, not mayo, pickles, and cornbread.

I am…

Getting sunburnt after swimming, ‘til I wish that I was dead.

I am …

      Wishing I was just as famous as Harry Truman.

I am…
Not perfect, but that just makes me human.

  1. Very clever, Tristan.. Captures your quirky wit in just a few words. The rhyme made me smile. I like the lines about adoring Samantha even more than Cocoa and the wisdom in your closing. Thanks for creating a blog. I look foward to seeing what else you come up with.
