March 24, 2024 Spoken Word Poetry 1 - My Juggling Life
Exciting News!
I've been diving into the world of spoken word poetry, taking workshops and even performing on stage! I'm feeling inspired and thrilled to share some of my work with you all through this podcast. Get ready for a dose of spoken word – I hope you enjoy it!

This piece was my first ever performed live!
My juggling life
During the school summer holidays, I wanted something to do,
I thought let’s try juggling, now that's something new
l was patient I started off slow, I knew I had a long way to go
If you drop, you done nothing wrong
You just pick up, start again and carry on
I love this hobby, because I can do it on my own
It’s funny when I am juggling, I never feel alone
During lockdown, I juggled at home, the garden and in the park.
I got good, even though during though times were quite dark.
I love throwing these objects, up in the air,
I realised that, this was good for my self-care
Last year I finally went to a convention, I was really happy,
It was great, I was surrounded by jugglers just like me.
