USOP
Face to Face


The very first time I went to the fountain
to get a drink
somebody pushed me in the back.
The water went up my nose.

I cried a little bit and ran to the office
to tell the principal who was not there.
I found a teacher
and he told the boy not to push me again.




Lunch recess the boy pushed me in
the play court.
It scared me.
I looked at him in the face
and I said my name is Nerissa
Don't push me
I want to be your friend.
