Breathtaking Wonder

WINNER

Exotic wonders that we admire
Fly high and low
Multicoloured and vibrant mistresses
Attract our kind

The Empress of all insects
We watch in awe
The mythical creature flies above
With its dazzling wings

Tremendous wings
Show their species
Defining their glorious type

The kind humane insects
Worship for themselves
Landing on us to rest
And when we tell them our wishes
They fly them to be made
“Bye bye… butterfly”

A Cow With a Spoon

by Lucy aged 13

The cow goes moo,
But it has a spoon,
To eat all of its cheese with
The cheese is cheddar,
But tastes like leather,
The cow’s worst nightmare.

I met a little hummingbird
She lost the words to her favorite song
And now she flits from flower to flower
Humming all day long

Dog

Have you ever seen a dog?
I’m sure, that you’ve been out in the fog,
I had been snug,
I went out for a little jog,
Until, I found some cogs.

I’ll Never Have Tea (with a bee)

by Alexandra Prideaux aged 8

I’ll never have tea with a bee.
I’ll never have tea with a wasp.
I’ll never have tea with a flea.
They wouldn’t want tea with me!

I’ll never have tea with a goat;
It’d eat all my clothes (and my coat)!
I’ll never have tea with a horse;
It’d eat all my apples (of course).
I’ll never have tea with a rabbit;
It’d eat all my veg (it’s a habit).
I’ll never have tea with a mouse;
It’d eat all the cheese in my house.

No, I’ll never have tea with a bee
and I’ll never have tea with a wasp.
I’d never have tea with a flea.
Won’t you have tea with me?

Into the Savannah

RUNNER UP

Swiftly the grass rustles,
A gazelle stands proud amongst the greenery,
The orange blends in so well with the grass.
The Gazelle continues to munch
And without a hesitation,
The tiger leaps out in front,
But the Gazelle is too quick,
It sprints away but that isn’t the end,
The tiger chases after it,
Time is quick,
Flashes of colour warn the animals of the predator,
Then the tiger loses sight of the Gazelle,
But he will return.

Pride of a Lion

0
by Samiksha aged 10

A lion hunts for its food,
A lion has a pride,
A lion is the king of a jungle,
A lion is very strong,
But sometimes very rude.

An elephant is the biggest land animal,
An elephant can’t jump,
An elephant reproduces when it’s 16 years old,
An elephant is so big that lions get scared of them,
An elephant is a vegetarian,
But they might fall.

A tiger is in the cat family,
A tiger kills about twice a week,
A tiger lives alone,
A tiger is the world largest cat,
A tiger likes to swim,
A tiger quietly hunts at night.
But tigers are not very free.

Animals are amazing,
Animals are nice,
Animals are important,
Animals help the world,
Animals need help too,
Animals are cute,
Animals are scary,
But don’t let them die because they are DYING!!!

The Hedgehog

by Polly Cook aged 6

A hedgehog
Sat on a log
He hears a noise
Of children playing with toys
Rolls into a ball
To make himself very small
When he wakes up he looks around
He sniffs the ground
He plods along
His prickles spiky and long

Tigers and lions fight and fumble
Elephants huge – hear the rumble
Rats and mice, small and humble
The monkey temple will it tumble?
The whale sings the grinding mumble
The animal kingdom – watch it crumble

A Cheetah Running Free

by Mahroosh Qasim aged 9

You know how fast a Cheetah can go.
Sometimes they are actually captured!
You may be thinking, What?
How can someone catch the fastest animal.
But when Cheetahs are free
They run around not caring
