It's early in the day (earlier yet when you wrote the post!), you can make this day into a happier day...

Remember that this is your PAST and what was said then was not true. Those who said it might have thought it was true, if so they were wrong. Adults can get things wrong, you know. Or they might have said things to keep a young child, who doesn't know any better, quiet.

As for your little poem: I'm sorry, but it reminded me of Allen Ahlberg's 'Please Mrs Butler' poem. I'm not sure if you know it or not, but I'm going to copy it out and it might help you smile

Please Mrs Butler

Please Mrs Butler
This boy Derek Drew
Keeps copying my work, Miss.
What shall I do?

Go and sit in the hall, dear.
Go and sit in the sink.
Take your books on the roof, my lamb.
Do whatever you think.

Please Mrs Butler
This boy Derek Drew
Keeps taking my rubber, Miss.
What shall I do?

Keep it in your hand, dear.
Hide it up your vest.
Swallow it if you like, love.
Do what you think best.

Please Mrs Butler
This boy Derek Drew
Keeps calling me rude names, Miss.
What shall I do?

Lock yourself in the cupboard, dear.
Run away to sea.
Do whatever you can, my flower.
But don't ask me!

Allan Ahlberg
