Poem: Juan

Juan - by Juan carrion 



Juan is my name.
It is not very lame.
Originates from God
It makes me feel kinda odd. 
No one I know has that name. 
Except my grandpa and it's not a shame.

Juan comes from the name John. 
It means a gift from God. 
My name comes from my uncle 
And my grandfather before. 

People seem to think I'm funny  
Because all I get is money 😂. 
Not one failure will stop me , 
I  always keep trying. 
Like a bird in the sky , 
I will keep flying. 

Juan also means hard worker. 
Which is what I am. 
Only sometimes because I like 
To do things and eat lots of ham.

The lord is gracious , 
Is also what my name means. 
I think of it as a blessing , 
To be who I am.
