The Dictionary Poem by Natalie Sapphire

Reading the dictionary
Trying to find the word...
Um, I'm not exactly sure
Exploring words I've never even heard of
Finding their meanings
And using them in my own life
Maybe I'll find a word I can call my best friend when she tells me a secret she hasn't told anyone else
Or maybe I'll find a great word to describe my teacher
Or my sister or my mother
Life is full of risks
Taking chances
The dictionary has words
I'm going to use tomorrow
Taking a risk
And helping the world
With my knowledge
And my understanding
I'll use the dictionary
To help the world
One word at a time
Grow to be a better place
