Figure It Out Yourself

by Giovanna aged 9

don’t stand here with nothing to do,
everyone knows there is something to do,
with me by your side it will be alright,
just figure it out yourself

I told you once and I am not telling you twice,
plenty of times, do yo listen? no!,
even if I am a teacher do not worry,
just figure it out yourself

True Love

True
True love
True love is
True love is hard
True love is hard to
True love is hard to find
How do you find where true love is?

Senses

I can hear what many can’t
I can hear the rustle of leaves and the chirp of birds
I can hear the rhythm in the humming of bees
I can hear the heartbeats of those struggling to live
I can hear peace in a meadow where humans don’t exist

I can smell what many can’t
I can smell the heartiness of bread that only the poor can fathom
I can smell the sweet scent of nectar on flowers
I can smell the pureness in the air when the grass is around
I can smell the reek of bitterness from within humans

I can see what many can’t
I can see the beauty in humans that they cannot
I can see the end of the world, burning to ashes
I can see dedication in those who want to prevent it

And although I have gifts
I am merely an observer; observing
A bird easily ignored
But I have senses that many do not

Strange

Strange things happen to the best of us
But, strange is only that which is different from us
Who are we to judge what is strange?
For the so-called strange people
Think us strange
And then maybe, none of us are
We are just unique

Magic

Sorcerers don’t know what true magic is
Although they have had a taste of it
They have no idea what real magic is
For even if there were gods
Or other supernatural beings in this world
They would never know what true magic is
And even when we have all had a taste of it
We still haven’t figured out
That magic lies…
In a slice of pizza

Lifestyles

by Anapayini Nadkarni aged 8

My life is different than yours,
Some have a family of four!
I like to gaze at bright stars,
they live in a land so far!

People sometimes like hip hop,
Some like pop.
Some like to groove on the spot!
Sometimes you end up on a big, big dot!

Some wake up late,
Also forget the date!
Some get grounded,
But love is unbound.

It’s all like a dream in a far, far land!

Peaceful Life

by Hitanshi

I sat down in a garden,
And thanked God for such a peaceful life,
For everything that is alive.
I saw a cuckoo in rejoice
With such a sweet voice,
And a butterfly sucking nectar
In a happy sector.
I plead to God to never end this life,
Having such a bright light.
I praised the beauty
For this wonderful treaty.
I looked widely at nature,
And saw the variant types of creatures.
I was amused to see the variant types.
Oh Cripes! I thank you for this place,
Having such a brilliant taste,
For life and for the beauty of everything that is alive.

Bullying’s Bad

by Harvey James aged 12

No matter what
we shouldn’t bully
it’s bad for the environment
people think it’s funny
so we need to look into it fully
it’s cruel and it hurts no matter what
it’s not fair people
kill themselves because of this
please God can we have justice?

One Kiss

One kiss is all it takes takes takes
a dream is all it makes
don’t hit or twist twist twist
you’ll get caught in the mist
curl your hair
and go in a pair pair pair
