Alex Ferguson
Football manager
Manchester United
Smart
Bossy
Strong
Football coach
Tells players what to do
Never wrong!!!
Then retired
New manager came
That was a poem about
ALEX FERGUSON!
A poem is something you keep close to your heart
A thought that comes from your brain
But as soon as you have written one
You just want to write one again.
The hopelessness within is unbearable
The anger, the pain, it crushes you
You want to know what it’s like to be free
You wouldn’t want to be me
The world doesn’t care for you
They will push you aside the second they see something they could gain
You never had happiness, or a chance to believe
You wouldn’t want to be me
You don’t remember the last time you felt loved
Then you remember: there never was a time
Life’s flown by and left just a bad dream
You wouldn’t want to be me
The world doesn’t love you, never has and never will
You’ve realised how truly evil some other people are
You finally understand what it’s like to be a refugee
YOU WOULDN’T WANT TO BE ME
I WROTE THIS POEM HOPING TO BRING AWARENESS OF HOW SOME PEOPLE IN THE WORLD FEEL. REFUGEES, THE HOMELESS, THOSE IN POVERTY. I HOPE YOU REALISE HOW MUCH THOSE PEOPLE SUFFER. I’M NOT SAYING THERE IS ANYTHING YOU CAN DO, BUT I WANTED TO BRING AWARENESS TO THE FACT THAT SOME PEOPLE IN OUR WORLD DO SUFFER. EVEN IF I CAN’T CHANGE THAT, I WANT TO MAKE SURE NOBODY FORGETS IT. THANK YOU FOR READING MY POEM.
I like to look up the sky
And think I can fly
So I told my friends
If I can fly
I will give you gifts
And I’ll not lie
Jason:
If I’m white
Does it cause you strife?
It doesn’t matter if you don’t like
Or does that just shatter your lights?
Afia:
If I’m black
Am I cause for attack?
In your eyes, am I just not right
Or perhaps it’s your sight?
Guridner:
If I’m brown
There’s no need to scowl, that’s right.
Don’t look at me like that
Even if I gave you a fright.
Bo Chang:
If I’m yellow
Please don’t bellow
Like I’m an odd fellow
Just come and say “hello.”
Teresa:
If I’m cream
I’m just as suitably welcome
Alike the trees that are green
I should be welcome.
Purple person:
If I’m purple
So what, I don’t care
I have as much right as you to speak
Just please don’t dare.

We are all a multicultural society
With as much right.
We should all be respecting each other
This is what’s right.
It doesn’t mean you have to be friends with that person
Or the like
It means you should respect and celebrate with them
The things that make us alike.
Fair enough some people you don’t like
But we shouldn’t hate or discriminate despite
You should ignite tolerance and tolerance ignite
A simple thing: just show that person a green light.
Because after all
We aren’t all that different
We all have the same cells, let’s just have a ball.
Respect, celebrate and tolerance install
You don’t have to agree with them –
But when we fall
It’s always best to hold hands
As we all stand tall.
Hey Z.
We haven’t spoken in too long.
Life’s boring without you.
I miss you so much.
Do you miss me?
I hope you do, but I hope you’re moving on.
I just wanted you to know, I can’t wait to see you again.
Soon, I hope.
Well, that’s all I have to say.
For now.
I’ll be in contact soon. I promise.

I struggled to find a way to say this
That really did my message justice
I sit in my room every day
And try to cry the pain away
But every day I miss you more
I wish it could be like before
I guess what I am trying to say
Is that when I start to cry today
I’ll be thinking only of you
And I hope you’ll think about me too
I hope we’ll be best friends forever
Because from a million pieces, you put me back together
You nurtured, saved, loved and forgave me
You rebuilt me stronger and then set me free
There were so many things I wanted to say
I wish we could have had one more day
Now everything you’ve taught me has helped me let go
But I think of you every day and I wanted you to know
on the first day
exciting sighting start
I rush like a slush
to put my stuff
like a PUFF
bye bye
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I know you walk in pain sometimes
But I’ll still help you
I know nobody helps you that much
I will still be with you
All the way through.
You don’t have to get up
Just relax
I’ll still be with you
I’m not going to complain
I’m still going to care for you.
