Competition. Their efforts are very much appreciated. Congratulations!
When the flowers were blooming,
our lenses were zooming.

But then there’s a storm.
Our emotions were torn.
The cheerful faces are gone.
A conclusion has been drawn.

Under his leaves we would play
I wish he could stay.
Yet everything has its seasons.
He won’t be with us in May.

I CAN DO IT I CAN DO IT
S2 Poetry Recital (2018/19)
I can do it, I wake up late every day,

And must commit! Alarm clock is ringing at my side,
Young poets Never lose hope, Nothing’s more tired than my eyes,

from Do you know what happened then?
Secondary Two Don’t ever say, ‘Nope!’ Oh! I missed the school bus again!
Or you’ll flop.

I will not stop, I promise I’ll be quicker every day,
Try nonstop! Time is flying all the way.

LIMERICK LIMERICK NONSENSE NONSENSE

There is a girl with a hat, There was a boy from Mars Through buildings tall and green, Through buildings tall and green,
I was walking through the woods, I was walking through the woods,
With a cat called Little Pratt, Who liked to play with cars,
Where the monkeys were so mean. Where the monkeys were so mean.
Her smile looks quite bright, His fashion was good,

She dresses just right, And he loves his food,
Tigers running along the track, I rode a unicorn high to see,
And she’s chasing a rat in her flat. That stylish boy from Mars.
Who are they running with, The woods smelled really good,
Oh! They’re on my back! And dragons sang to me.

Stars are shining under the river, The lions were all singing,
They are lonely, but they’re happy,
They are lonely, but they’re happy, The trees were good for food,
But something makes me shiver!
But something makes me shiver! The birds, like bells, were ringing.
