I wake up
Brushed my teeth and took a shower
Dressed up and went to school
And I learned, learned about new stuff I never knew
Even if some lessons are boring
The teacher never let us down, they always cheers us up
They made our future brighter and brighter
Like the stars that shine brightly
We use the knowledge, to make the world a better place
For our future, family, and our new generations!
Poem by Roeun SoDavid, 14 years, living in Cambodia.
The poem is a result of the workshop Creative Writing from the NGO Writing Through, one of the partners of CONNECT. The workshop was given in Anjali House, another partner of CONNECT.
