In the Dark

by Name Withheld aged 11

In the dark when I’m all alone
I cry a little and think of home
Now home is nowhere near
and now all I feel is fear
I try to bottle it up inside
though it’s not an easy thing to hide
Shut people away then feel more pain
try to find some sun but there’s only rain
I just keep dreaming of that day
where all my worries will fly away

Candy

There was a girl called Mandy,
And she loved to eat candy.
She always ate sweets,
Because she didn’t like meat.

Sweets in wrappers, sweets in bags, she wouldn’t share because she didn’t care

Magic slips
between the
cracks. One
day you
might step
on it.

School

School is dramatic,
But I would rather be in my attic.
Sports are boring
We are outside when it’s pouring.
When it’s Summertime, it’s a crime.
In spring, we hardly do anything.
At lunch, people crunch and munch.
When it’s break people smell like steak.
And rhyme it’s such a crime!

Fun fun fun
in the sun
Have water fights
in the light
but watch out for bumblebees
because they might
sting your knees

Cows, Horses, Pigs
Girls with pretty pink wigs
Cats, Parrots, Dogs
They’re all sitting on logs
Tigers, Lions, Bears
They don’t really care

What Should I Write a Poem About

by Katrina aged 11

What should I write a poem about?
A cow, or a pig with a snout?
No I know, a unicorn from planet rainbow,
Who’s favourite thing is cookie dough,
Who has a gorgeous rainbow mane,
And her name can be… JANE,
Yes! That’ll do,
Now I need to give this to Miss Lu.

Make Me a Cup of Tea

Make me a cup of tea
Near the beach, near the sea.
The wind will blow, the sun will shine
And everything’ll be good and fine.

Listen to the teacher
When you are at school;
And of course remember
Every written rule.
