The author of this creative and insightful poem is Chanie Gorkin, an 11th grader from Brooklyn, New York. She attends an all-girls school and lives in the Hasidic Community of Crown Heights.
Her mother confirmed to ABC that Chanie is the author of the poem. She posted the poem on poetrynation.com but her mom said Chanie is unable to comment at this time because she is busy having too much fun at summer camp.
