PERFECT

(a poem by 10 year old Emma)

No one’s perfect,

Not on every subject.

You want to be perfect;

You want respect.

You might be great at Maths,

English – too,

Might be rubbish at Art,

Although you’re smart.

Perfection steals your joy,

And everything you’ve got.

It will annoy

You a lot.

It’s not worth it,

It’s best to sit,

And do what you do best.

(Emma Dimitrova (my 10 year old daughter), 10/03/2019)
