I am curious and compassionate
I wonder what will happen to the world after I die
I hear the crickets chirping in the night
I see chickens scratching in the yard
I want to live on a ranch
I am curious and compassionate.

I pretend to be dancing on a stage
I feel loved when I'm at home
I touch the soft fur of a horse's back
I worry that I'll come home and someone I love wont be there
I when I read a tragic book
I am curios and compassionate.

I understand the sun and moon
I say you can do anything you truly believe in
I dream that everyone in the world will be educated
I try to learn something new everyday
I hope that we will have a cure for all diseases
I am curious and compassionate.

My little sister inspired this poem. I dedicate this poem to her since it is about her. i hope she reads it and realizes that i tried to write it from her point of view. I hope i succeeded.
I love you Geena, you're the best sister ever!
