Elijah
Canadian, Inventor, Free, Educated
Son of George McCoy
Lover of Ann Elizabeth Stewart, and Mary Eleanora Delaney
Feeling Dedicated, Efficient, Creative
Finding his happiness in sharing his inventions with children
Yet needing a chance to show his inventions are the real deal
Giving full devotion to his work
Fears that he may never see his inventions work, that his ideas will be stolen, that he wont be a role model to the kids he tells to stay in school
He would like to see all his inventions put to the test of their full potential
Enjoying the hours of creating these designs
Who likes to wear a lab coat when inventing the next great product
Resident of Detroit, Michigan, The same neighborhood as the Mayor
McCoy

I'm not really sure who this person is, but he seems like a great guy. From reading your poem I can tell that he wants to set a good example for the kids in his city. I feel like I learned a lot about this guy just from reading your poem!
ReplyDeleteI am not sure who Elijah McCoy is as well but this poem provides me with a sense of who he is. He is an inventor of some sort who works with kids.
