Shea Sophomore wins Poetry Award
My dreams are my dreams
Where no one believes in you but your soul
My body and my soul shall let our screams
But I know I will achieve this goal
Let those words of hatred float into fire
Put your mind together and lift those shoulders be confident of yourself first
Just imagine you're sitting up in the clouds and reaching higher and higher
Let those worries to the side, it could be worse
Congratulations to Daniela from the entire Shea family!!! Below is a photo of the award winning poet!
