    About this ebook

    "My Mind" is about a young girl whose life was tormented by bullies as she grew up. She fought with depression, fear, loneliness and abuse. She had to change her life. Then she was given the chance to travel to Australia, where she became a confident young lady. Then she finds love. She writes how she sees things and how sometimes it looks like it doesn't make sense... It makes you think about the meaning behind the words.
    Every poem will have meaning to the reader that stirs a memory in their lives.


    The glimpse of the book they will read


    Walking

    As I walk along the street
    I see others walk by
    I try to think how they would see me
    Through their eyes
    I'd imagine I was them
    Passing me by
    To wonder what they were thinking
    Would they notice me?
    If I shouted at the top of my lungs
    As loud as I possibly could
    Would they stop and stare?
    I don't want to be noticed
    By passers by
    If I have to shout and scream to be seen
    So
    As I walk along the street
    I smile and walk on by.

      I once was a chestnut, I hung from a tree,Like all of the young, I longed to be free.One day I landed, it felt like a mile.I need not have worried, I was in Hutton soil.My work had just started, ‘twas about 1803.That’s when I knew, I’d become a tree.
