Stuck in a Quarantine

by Shifa Asif aged 10

I want a candle,

But also a sandal,

It could be pink,

But it must not sink,

I want a shoe,

But it should be new and blue,

I want a packet of lays,

Within some days,

I want some egg Florentine,

But unfortunately, I am stuck in a quarantine.

Spooky

A misty ghost and a gloomy dark cave
Next to an old 1600’s grave
Cobwebs hanging on the wall
And spooky spirits haunting the hall

A foggy mist so icy and cold
An ancient darkness in stories you hold
Zombies in the darkness at midnight
Even rotten flesh will give you a fright

Ugly skeletons and scary witches
Pharaoh’s magic and hackers’ glitches
Pirate captains and gurgling giants
Aren’t enough to scare a Titan

Spring is the sun shining brightly!
Pretty blossom blooming!
Red poppies growing!
I love to swing on my swing!
New life begins!
Good old spring!

Lockdown Life

by Alfie Hood aged 8

I’m going crazy with my sister
This lockdown is real bad
I’m missing all my mates
So I’m feeling rather sad .
I never thought I’d say
But I’m even missing school
Now that really is a surprise
But really school is cool.
I can’t wait to get back to normal
Back to our usual life
But let’s keep at it just for now
As it is saving lives.

Lockdown Story

I’m stuck at home and it’s so boring
I just want to go to the park and go on a swing

Homeschooling is fun
There’s lots to do
I just want to see the sun

I’m feeling tired
I just want to be free

The Citrus

there’s lemons
with the yellow tang
the flavour hits your tongue
with a bang

the citrus fruits
colours so cool
amazing fruits
have you tried them all?

now limes
citrus number 2
sour not sweet
but good for you

the citrus fruits
colours so cool
amazing fruits
have you tried them all?

pink grapefruits
grow on a tree
small white flowers
that’s number 3

citrus fruits
colours so cool
amazing fruits
have you tried them all?

now oranges
number 4
orange so sweet
the one we’ve all been waiting for

citrus fruits
colours so cool
amazing fruits
have you tried them all?

I could name another 11
’cause there’s so much more
of the citrus, the juice
let it pour

citrus fruits
colours so cool
amazing fruits
have you tried them all?

I like sour tastes
this poem’s a tongue tie
the citruses
for now goodbye

The Night

Look, there’s the night
not the fighting one
the one with stars-white

It twinkles high
glimmering, shining
in the navy blue sky

Morning, evening, day, night
it’s pitch black night
you know I’m right

The rockets and stars
fly to the Moon
maybe Mars

The pretty view
so wonderful
that navy blue

Dawn dazzling, dusk, dark
NASA ISS
rocket car park

Our galaxy the milky way
like the chocolate
hip hip hooray

Space

Weird Dream

by Emily aged 11

Bored at home on my phone,
All alone missing school,
Even though it is not cool,
I miss my friends and sometimes even my teachers (LOl),
But I know staying at home
and my poem will help us know
that we are not ALONE!
We will beat COVID19,
Even if this is a weird dream,
THANK YOU NHS AND OUR FRONTLINE STAFF.

I See

I see the sun
my hair starts to shine
I see the moon
my eyes start to glow
I see the clouds
then my heart starts to pound
