What an AMAZING discovery it is,

It shows me the world,

It told me stuff I did not know,

It showed me something which I could not see for a mile,

It helped me research and know many things,

It also helps me know the time,

I can fit in in my hand,

Maybe even in a bag!

It is a HUGE Discovery,

Sometimes it can be bad,

Sometimes it can make us mad,

But try to use this spectacular discovery postivitely,

And use it according to your relativity,

BECAUSE ITS AN AMAZING DISCOVERY,

Don’t make it leave you alone!,

And you know what?!

ITS A PHONE!

(Small message: A phone is something very useful if you try to use it properly without mis-using it. It can show you something which is happening in another country. It really is an amazing discovery! But please don’t use it inappropriately because it can harm you)!

Have you ever whispered into the sea
of empty white noise and its cushioned cries?
Wishing that the pale grey echo would be
in close earshot of even a stray fly?
Whilst your open heart and its plaintive cry
traverses sunken ravines, caves afar,
your call is unheard, witnessed just by stars.

At 52-hertz haunts heartache through you,
52 long weeks of mourning a year,
hermit of the seas, from one home to few –
the distance you sweep, remaining unclear.
Your yelps create ripples of swathing fear,
indistinct lacuna trapped in your wail,
a cold, hollow torment with no avail.

So man, being man, sends down sonar waves,
into the inky Pacific abyss,
trying hard to save nature from the grave,
not an accessory we reminisce.
The once unheard, now will not be dismissed,
hoping efforts retrieve the forlorn soul,
alone to venture the seas and patrol.

As and when the same feeble sonar waves,
and lightyears consume stewardship and love,
man, glances above, away from the cave,
and witnesses the sprawling rifts above.
a land of lit screens and no touch thereof,
curled thumbs on keyboards, in pixels immersed.
And he knows not which rift he must close first.

What an AMAZING invention!
Without it, everything was tension,
What an amazing glow,
Helps us see,
And know where to go,
Absolute perfection!
Shows us the depth of this world,
Easy was nothing to see once,
The night sky makes everything black,
But Edison created luminosity,
Made 100% economically,
Now its your chance to use it properly!
THANKS TO EDINOUSITY!

(Edinous, edinousity is a mixture of the words Edison and Luminous/Luminosity)

Hear the dinosaur stomp
It goes roar – the crushing dinosaur
The digger and cement mixer
are going along.
What’s that sound?
The dinosaur is making the dinosaur stomp
Louder than loud! goes the dinosaur stomp
The digger and cement mixer
are going along – to the dinosaur stomp.
The dinosaur needs a dinosaur drink
He wants to drink some lava.
The next thing is the dinosaur stomp
– where the volcano is!
Ra! Roar! Bang!
Ra! Roar! Bang!

It was night time in Ziplock Street
I was sleeping while biting my feet
I imagined it was a delicious cake
and then I tried to shake myself awake

When I woke up
I saw a blue and black cup
when I got up
I saw my pup

I looked out into the deep blue sky
I saw the clouds
one looked like a big scary guy
and another looked like many crowds

It made me kind of scared
but then I remembered my best bud
I remember when he and I got paired
I looked out the window and saw my dog jumping on a pile of mud

I listened deeply to the noises of the night
I heard the hoots of an owl
as I stared in awe at the sight

I went back to sleep
and I dreamt that I was starting at the night sky sitting on a log
I woke up to the birds that started to cheep
and the bark of my dog

The majestic lion is the king of the jungle,
When he walks, all you hear is “rumble, rumble”
While he strides, all stop to look at him,
And his eyes widen slightly just by the rim.

But when he is angry, he is something to fear,
The slightest sound of an animal won’t escape his ear.
All the colour drains out of the animal’s frightened face,
It’s just him and the afraid animal and he starts the chase!

The lion can run as fast as a hare,
So he can run quickly back to his lair.
But to go near him, an animal won’t dare,
If it did, well it would not fare!

The lion is at the top of the food chain,
It survives in the Savannah, where it won’t rain.
Maybe sometimes he will stay in the plain,
But he is short for sure, much shorter than a crane!

The lion for sure is great,
It would get 10/10 on a rate,
Sometimes it is a blaze of fire,
If it catches you for a snack though, the consequences will be dire!

Hot-air balloons
in the spotted sky
full of colours
floating, calm
Unaware of where they are going
when the sun goes down

In the middle of the heavens
a ray of light shone,
through the land of the angels,
just as they flew,
emerged passerby,
a colossal wind that grew.

An infant was spotted.
A child loved.
And just then on the carol
Mr. Nightingale
thanked the trees,
the skies and the seas,
for it all was to be dwelled in once more.

Today won’t be fun
This backpack must weigh a ton!
I really hate this freezing weather,
Mother recommended wearing a sweater.
To my annoyance, my gloves keep slipping,
At this point, I probably need to start running
If I don’t, I’ll be late
If I am, I shall have nothing on my plate.
My thoughts run to the punishment,
If I’m lucky I could live in the tent.
Bruises will appear in one minute,
In my body there’d be no spirit.
My face must have gone funny
For my friend gave me some honey.
Even then I still thought of home
Soon enough I’d be shipped off to Rome

The ocean is massive.
It is filled with lots of sea creatures
for example fish, sharks, dolphins, octopus and everything else.
The ocean is 1,101 km (684 miles)
It is definitely huge.

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED MY POEM. THANKYOU! BYE!
