Bright faces waiting expectantly,
the teacher clears her throat,
"today we will do a self inventory,
a Who am I "
"Fifteen minutes you get to think
of your goal in life, your achievements,
areas of improvement, your hobbies,
are you a team player, instances when you
let others down, when you were let down,
your strengths, weaknesses."
The faces bend down
some thoughtful, others assured
notepads out, hands start scribbling
writing the story of their life
Fifteen minutes to answer questions
that she knows cannot be answered by her @ fifty
goal in life ? meandered
let others down? so many
were let down? that's a laugh
strengths? never had time to think
weaknesses? let's not count
Who Am I ?
still to figure out
