I have a blue sweater
it smells good
and when I touch it
it’s rough, but not too much

When I touch it
it makes a little sound
if I lick it
it tastes of nothing
makes me not want to
lick it again

When I look at it
it is so beautiful
Maureen Nzisa bright and blue in colour
BRIGHT so, so nice
AND BL UE
I do like this sweater
because someone special
gave it to me
and when it’s cold
I wear it and I am
protected from
all things cold

The sweater makes me feel
good

I remember when I was 10 years
I passed through a lot in life
I had no one to take care of me
Ï was to take care of myself
I was forced
to get involved in
bad things
like stealing

I had parents
but they didn’t take
care of me

I was alone
and so someone got me
