Fridge Flash: Powim 3 (for you)

July 29, 2019

Today’s Fridge Flash comes from 7-year-old Emi from London. We are providing a translation here, with the original handwritten story below. And we are aware that Emi’s work is a powim, but we are making an exception this time because we love this. We love all of it. 

Powim 3 (for you)

this is for you

all for you all

this happyness is

for you all of it all

of it all of it.

I’m Emi, and I’m seven. I would describe myself as helpful and careful. I like climbing things and taking care of people. I am a feminist.
