... In year 5.
I relived it today at uni, when we were talking about positive encouragement and detrimental things in child hood.
I said how I was a naughty boy, and I fluked this poem, and my teacher who used to dislike me, started to ask for my opinion on all this fucking poetry that I didn't have a clue on.
then this booklet got printed on the finalist. They summarised the poems and they talked about mine, then they went to the person who came 1st and said "this poem is significantly better then the runner ups"
talk about both ends of the positive encouragement and detrimental spectrum.
My tutor loved this story
