FRIENDSHIP

Hi! My name is Ana.

Our Religion teacher, Daniela, asked our class, 8ºM, to write some sentences about Friendship.
I wrote this poem in Portuguese and then I translated it into English with the help from my friend Alexandra and my English teacher Paula.

A Friend,
Is someone we will never forget,
He is always there.
It is a treasure,
And it is better than gold.
It is almost a brother,
In our heart,
It is a beautiful present.
When we need warmth, love and strength,
He is our hope in the loneliness.
The world turns into darkness,
And we grieve.

Fortunately, I can rely on your Friendship!!!

I just loved the idea of writing in English and posting here! If only more teachers had great sense like you to encourage your students...
I have lived in the US and graduated in an English course here in Brasil (with S), also was a teacher for some time...so you can guess how I love to write and speak English!
A great way to learn English too is through Lyrics, I have to confess that my collection only made my skills better, learning and singing along with the songs.
Congratulations!

Well, what a nice poem! Maybe you should create a blog where you write your poems. And why not start writing poems in English? English was my favorite subject in school (I liked Portuguese too).

I graduated with a college degree in Economics but now, and partly because I loved English so much, I live in the United States. I get to speak, read and write English everyday and all the time. Who says dreams don't come true?

All the best all the way from the USA--Your friend Rita
