I AM...

My I AM POEM

I AM LASA

I am a Sporty Tongan Boy.

I wonder if I am good enough to play for the Tongan rugby team.

I hear the sounds of the whistle.

I see the try line ahead.

I want to claim the victory.

I am a Sporty Tongan Boy.

I pretend I am the best.

I feel all alone.

I touch the grips of the ball.

I worry if we win.

I cry for a win.

I am a Sporty Tongan Boy.

I understand our fails.

I say “Let’s move on”.

I dream of playing for Tonga.

I try to be the best.

I hope that one day all my hard work would pay off.

I am a Sporty Tongan Boy.
