A Dream

0 December 1, 2016
by Sumer aged 11

The bark cracks beneath my squeaky bike,
The church bells chime
…10,11,12
The souls of dead people arise from their grave,
They reach for me
For my life
I scream
But nothing comes out
They’ve taken me
My soul
I rise up
Up to heaven
Was this meant to happen?
What did I do to deserve this?
Arghhhhhh
I was alarmed by a scream
Wait, a scream
The scream
It was my scream
It was all a dream

My Great Friends

by Adriana aged 6

I had four great friends
Macarena, Maria Jose, Maria P and Claudia.
They are kind but sometimes mad with other persons.
We go to each others houses for played,
practice and we do our work.
We are always together
and sometimes not
we remember in our house.
Claudia has a telephone and the others not,
she takes it to the school in her bag
and I and Macarena take a selfie

Pebbles on the Beach

Pebbles shimmer, pebbles gleam
they sparkle in the moon light stream,
every morning I see you
pebbles through my window.
I see you pebbles
all shapes & sizes
as the sun rises.

That’s why I like pebbles.

Across the world
India was his goal
Landing in the Bahamas

Dogs that Bark Don’t Bite

There’s something inside me, it’s a disease,
but not the type that makes you sneeze.
He settled in without a sound,
now he haunts me like a bloodthirsty hound.

He barks and growls,
whines and howls.

Yet you don’t see
that he bites with glee.

Alone, I fight this wolf everyday,
’cause nobody else knows of this stray.

In spring he hides,
in summer he bites,
in autumn he’s nice,
and in winter he rolls the dice.

So how is it that while I fight this war,
you are here no more?
Play my wounds of as a scratch,
nothing that can’t be fixed with a simple patch.
You pet the dog, saying it would never hurt me,
but deep down, you know your words have already
killed me.

Cheetah

Cheetah
Speedy, spotty
Sprinting, racing, chasing
A ray of the golden sun
Desert

Cows

Cows called Daisy
Are often lazy
But cows called Brian
Are always flying
Up in the air
And out into space
Because of the grass
And the gas it makes

Aliens and Underpants

0 November 28, 2016
by Ellie Griffin aged 9

Aliens and underpants are the worst mix
Aliens invite themselves around to steal your underpants
when your not watching
They like mum’s pink frilly knickers
and gran’s spotty bloomers,
but when mum comes out to get the washing
they rush back home
So when you go to your drawer
just check there is no aliens still there

The Sun

Scary as halloween costumes
Underneath the stars
No on will go to the sun

Scary as halloween
Under the stars
No one will go there

Friends and Bullies

1 November 24, 2016
by Charlotte aged 10

Friends are loyal. Bullies are lame.
Put them together. They’ll both be insane.
But when you need a friend just yelp or cry.
I need a friend to stay by.
Say goodbye to bullies. Say hi to friends.
Hi friends I know you’ll recommend.
But either way bullies are mean.
So friends are loved bullies are hated.
And usual friends have messed
and not been rated.
Some friends are stupid. Some are silly.
And some just get annoying.
But I am a great friend to one and all.
But the thing I can’t do at all
is defend myself against the bullies.
I cry until a friend passes by.
And then I laugh and cry
and my friends don’t judge.
So hey, don’t judge me for how I look!
