Journal for September 22“The Voice”By Shel Silverstein
There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long,
“I feel that this is right for me,
I know that this is wrong.”No teacher, preacher,
parent, friendOr wise man can decideWhat’s right for you—
listen toThe voice that speaks
inside.
Explain the meaning of the poem.
Tell how you make decisions.
