A Poet's Mentor:

this is inspired by my ELA teacher

Gabby Racine

The ELA room is my go-to place where my creativity can roam free, and I can let

my imagination run wild. It's a dedicated writing space where I can write poetry

that is both beautiful and meaningful. This room is like my sanctuary, a haven

where I can escape from the world and let my creative juices flow. There's

someone in my life who has been a true gem for me. She's always been there to

guide me and help me find just the right words whenever I'm struggling to express

myself in my poetry. Her unwavering support and encouragement have been a

constant source of inspiration for me.

Whenever we connect, her joyous voice fills me with positivity and lifts my spirits.

I feel like she's an angel sent to help me navigate life and understand my needs and

desires. Her remarkable ability to connect with kids like me is truly admirable, and

I'm grateful to have her in my corner. Her patience and unwavering support have

helped me overcome my creative blocks and find my true voice. In my life, there is

someone who holds a very special place in my heart. This person brings me

immense happiness and joy, and I never doubt the way I express myself around her.

She has been a constant source of inspiration for me, and it is because of her that I

have gained the confidence to trust my abilities with a pen and paper.

I have always been a writer at heart, but it wasn't until I met her that I truly began

to explore the depths of my creativity. She has encouraged me to write without

inhibition and to let my thoughts and emotions flow freely onto the page. As a

result, poetry has become my go-to medium for expressing my love for her, as well

as for taking note of the passing of time, the loss of loved ones, and so much more.

It is a wonderful feeling to have someone in your life who supports you

unconditionally and encourages you to pursue your passions. Thanks to her

unwavering support, I have discovered a new side of myself and have been able to

channel my emotions into something beautiful. I am forever grateful for her

presence in my life, and I look forward to continuing to create and write with her

by my side. Thank you, Miss. Gilroy for being you.
