This is such a beautiful poem about the gift of being bilingual. It is on the wall in my daughter's room.
Yo x 2
por Jane Medina
Leo por dos
Escribo por dos
Pienso y sueño
y lloro por dos
Yo río por dos
Yo grito por dos
Canto, pregunto,
Intento por dos
Hago mucho más
que hacen todo ellos
Porque yo hablo por dos,
Lo doble que aquellos
Me x 2
I read times two
I write times two
I think, I dream
I cry times two.
I laugh times two
I shout times two
I sing, I ask,
I try times two
I do twice as much
As most people do,
'Cause most speak one,
But I speak two!
