Allow Yourself to be heard, so Speak Up!!! By Erna..a Youth Voices pool photo.

Monisha Lashawn Nelson

When I was born my mother named me after my two aunts, her sister and my father’s sister. My mother’s sister name is Aisha Monique, which is how she made my first name Monisha. She took the “Mon” from Monique and the “isha” from Aisha and brought them together: “Monisha.” Now my middle and last name is simple. My father’s sister’s first name is Lashawn, so that’s how I got my middle name. But my last name I got from my mom.

The Limited Voice

I don't speak my mind because there is no point, no time
to argue with a person who is bossed by one,
and the boss is bossed by nine.
I rarely talk, my voice would not be heard,
I'm little of importance in the small little world
what separates us is either we are a girl or a boy,
and the top we play with is our souls.
hoping it won't stop spinning for me to start from the old
the history I learned I learned well,
I learned not to give in or end up in jail
I only speak for the weak that walk with cut tails,
the limited voice won't sneak a whisper

Small Bamboo
Close Up of bamboo (bottom)
Bamboo Top

Bamboo with green wheat on top,
thin and straight like a broom,
but yet the age shown are the green brush strokes,
and closer yet notches are more visible,
from kids or a strong grip no one knows,
and the handle instead is yellow right before it is driven under 

Nature

Flowers that show life is filled with color and beauty.
Bees that roam to feed themselves in pollen.
Trees that give us oxygen and shade from the sun.
Everything in nature has a meaning to us.
And that yellow flower is my desire to be the one who contiues to give life
like a never ending cycle called nature.

My name is Geraldine and I'm from Colombia.I'm am 11 years oldWhen i was in Colombia i played alot with my cousins and we treated each other nice,but me and one of my cousins fighted alot and at that time i didn;t apologize  she apologized.In my sisters wedding i was the flower girl and i felt really nervous and the wedding was really long and i got bored.I was eight then andNow i really know how thw world  is because when I was eight I thought everyone was nice and everything was nice and that life was nice but when i got here i then realize it was not really true.That there was really bad people that hurt other peolpe anddid horrible things.ike reading,writing,and TV. i was really innocent.

Life has teach me to appreciate what i have and had in life.That you can't give up when things are getting harder.Life can give you things,but it could too take away.I'm really proud from to be colombian 'cause for me Colombia is a wonderful place,and i would never trade where I come from.That sometimes the life that you had was the best one you could ever has gotten.

      As a writer i see my self as above average. I'm not as strong as I want to be, but I am as strong as I need to be. However, I would like to become much more stronger because I'm  going to be attending college soon. I like to write a lot actually, reason being is that I always have a lot to say. My mind is filled with wonderful things that I love to put on paper.

Basic Response On Youth Voices

Something that catches my eye on the Youth Voices is something that I like. Some post that has same thinking as mine. And something that I learn from about the world and what is going on in the world about global warming, racism, and more. The post should be enough. It should not very long. The reading should have an image because it makes the reading easy to understand.
