Biopoem Pattern

Daniel

Honest, faithful, sensitive and stubborn

One sister

Lover of teaching, songs, books and films

Who feels pleased when he doesn't have to get up early,

enraged when he faces injustices or corruption

and fortunate to work in what he really loves

Who needs a rest at weekends, delicious food on Sundays 

and a meeting with friends once a week

Who fears losing his beloved, being lonely and dying young

Who never gives up, no matter how difficult a situation may be

Who would like to see himself become a successful and prestigious teacher, 

his children growing up healthily and happily and 

his students remembering him as someone who has contributed to their lives

Resident of Rosario, Argentina

I have chosen the Biopoem Pattern for two reasons. First of all, I'd never written a poem before so I believed that writing about myself could make me feel more confident. But, on the other hand, this was the first time I had to write about me. So it was quite a challenge to describe myself. To be honest, I ended up writing things I wouldn't have thought of.
