Horses

2
by Kelsey Wellard aged 12

How their coats gleam in the sunlight
Magnificent solid colours they are
The horses with the chestnut coats
Shine as reddy-gold as the sinking horizon
The foals are so cute,
Their long legs are spiders,
Wobbling as they walk
And whilst riding into the sunset,
The wind whistles a fast tune
As the stallion gallops majestically,
Into the evening bloom
Horses love sweet, sensational sugar lumps,
So scrumptious, oh yes
And when they neigh
They just want some hay
To chew while they chill.

Their dark chocolate brown eyes
Resemble kindness and relaxation
They are marvellous, magnificent creatures
When they lope as fast as a bear
When they are stressed
Their mane is a tangled maze of noodles
Almost like blond hair
They are great companions
And make fantastic company
Horses hooves hover for a second as they canter carefully
And the clip-clop of the iron horseshoes,
So comforting it is,
So comforting.

There is a heavy saddle,
And sparkling stirrups
When the saddle is black,
It is as black as night
Sometimes, the reins and stirrups
Are snakes writhing in the air
Sometimes,
My saddle calls my name
To tack up my Welsh Section B horse
There is
Riding, running,
And reins at the ready
No jingly harness at all.

Poetry

by Khalid Dokrat aged 7

Poems can be funny or serious, they’re still good
One of my favourites types are silly ones
Enjoy them – I know I do
Time to time – I read poems but I always like them
Read them when you’re sad or worried
You should try

The Magical Tap Shoes

2
by Amie Preece aged 7

Tapping all night, dancing all day, helps me clear all the cobwebs away.

Under the tunnel, down by the lake, magical tap shoes showed me the way.

Darker and darker the sun fell down, as I wandered through the old little town.

Past the bushes, past the trees, my eyes fell upon the biggest of dreams.

Closer and closer I wandered on, in through the doors the light shone on.

I looked around and blinked my eye and wondered if I was still dreaming in the sky.

The Lost Cat

This is a lost cat
Oh, hi there. Did you know I’ve lost my cat
I have looked everywhere but have you seen him?
Yes we have. He’s behind you
No he’s not, I looked
Woo, I know – he’s dead
No! I looked in the graveyard
Oh no… I know
He’s on my head
Silly cat!

Me and You

Me and you
That’s all I want
Just me and you

My Fat Friend

7
by Sofia aged 7

My friend is extremely fat, she even
eats more then my cat
She’s even bigger then my step mum
If she eats any more, she will explode
If you see her you might want to watch out
She’s even bigger then the road right now
When I see her, I’m a little bit scared
and I’m not usually scared of anything

I Love Science

1
by Scarlet aged 7

science is fun
anything can be done
from slimy gunk
to bits of junk

sometimes they go bang
or you can make stuff to hang
squash a fake eye till it pops
in science the fun never stops

Fluffy

Fat ball of fluff
Loves a rub
Until the day is over
Face full of fluff
Fluffy is his name
You like him don’t you?
