Worries and Me

by Nancy Pearce-Floisand aged 8

Sometimes I sit on my bed and cry
I simply don’t know why
There’s a feeling inside of me
That makes me feel sad
It seems to grow bigger
Then I feel bad

My worries sometimes make me feel scared
I need to talk to someone who cares
I have had it before
Then it’s back again
I don’t always know
Why, how or when

But…
I have a Worry Monster called Pom
She eats all my worries until they are gone
And…
Talking about worries with my mum is okay
it makes me feel better
And worries go away

So…
If you have worries, just like me
Here is my advice
See how helpful it can be

Talk to someone
Who will listen to you
Tell them your worries
They might know what to do

Share your worries
With family and friends
Your worries will go
And your troubles
Will end.
