What Makes You Shine

by Christopher Ortiz aged

I act my character as if I was them
But sometimes I stay as me
And the actor turns into my hand
With a puppet on my knee.

I am a ventriloquist.
Terry Fator has helped a lot.
He has shown me ways to express myself
And tell jokes that I cannot

We are all unique and special
Full of hope and dreams
We take what we are good at
and use what makes us gleam.

I use my talents and my gifts
To become who I am now.
And now I ask you,
What makes you YOU?
What will make you shine?
