Deaf Teenage Poetry

Some Poetry from two Deaf Teenagers living and studying Peterborough

 It’s About Me!

 YO YO YO

My name is Javaria Nargis

I am 13 years old

I am Deaf

I was born in Peterborough

YO YO YO

I’m always cheeky girl and sometime naughty

But I’m good and nice girl

Familys and friend are important to me.

Going out with friends and familys.

Sometimes I talked to friends and familys

Without sign language, I been practised

Lip-read with Mrs Hardy. She’s a wonderful

T.A. ever.

YO YO YO

I made a promise for my granddad

He said “please wear implant cochlear

Before I die”. I said “I’ll try the next

Day he gone, I missed him

Soooooo much. He’s best granddad ever

I had! Rest in peace granddad. 16/1/10

My Identity

 My name is Ayesha Quraishy

I am 16 years old

I am deaf

Born in Kenya

Moved in 2006 to England

Family and friends are important to me

Achieved level 3 British Sign Language

GCSEs are on the  way

Friendly, polite, kind, caring

I am a good role model they say

Out going with friends and families

I like to try new things

Youth Clubs

Traveling, I love new things like rock climbing and sky diving

Shopping is my passion

I hate R.E.

Enjoy life and happy the way I am

It’s good to be me.
