Vanessa Tahay is different from the other teenagers (青少年) in her school. Her skin is dark and her voice is thick. But these are the things she is proudest of.
Tahay is one of the best poets (诗人) in Los Angeles. But that doesn’t come easily to someone who comes from a small village in Central America.
When she first came to school, she was shy and laughed at by others for being short and different.
She spent hours after school and on weekends watching the same DVDs: English Without Barriers (障碍). Tahay’s elder brother, Elmer, advised her to join the after-school poetry club.
The first time Tahay read the poems in the club, she was shocked. “I wish I could write like that,” she thought to herself.
She wrote her first poem about her first year in America. She called it “Invisible (无形的)”. The day she read it in front of the team, she broke down crying. She cried a lot. “I had too much to express (表达) myself,” Tahay said.
Though her English was not good at that time, she kept at it. At first, she wouldn’t tell her friends about her poetry because she worried they’d make fun of her.
But with time, her poems changed her. “They gave me pride,” Tahay said. “They told me I’m worth (值得的) something.”
