I AM
I am a swimmer
I wonder how fast I can go
I hear the crowd cheer
I see my parents proud
I want 1st place
I am a swimmer
I pretend I’m not worried
I feel tired as I go on
I touch the water
I worry I’ll do bad
I cry about losing
I am a swimmer
I understand if I put my mind to it I can do it
I say I can do it!
I dream I’ll get the trophy
I try my best
I hope I win
I am a swimmer
