Ballerinas always spin around
So does the world they have found
Found my missing shoe how strange
Shoe sizes have to change
Changing seasons that’s so cool
Summer’s when we are not in school
School is boring I have to learn
Learn to wear sunscreen when you burn
Burn your fingers on candle fire
Fingers and feet we should admire
Should we help others I don’t know?
Others like playing in the snow
Playing that’s what I love to do
Love between me and you?
You cut chicken with a knife
What is the true meaning of life?
There is a meaning to everything
Wow a bird with just one wing!
A frog, a lizard and a snake
you’re not pretty your just fake!
Try talking no need to shout
what am I talking about?

Pop pop pop popping around
One after other making a sound
Pop pop popping I am having so much fun
Constantly shooting like the bullets of a gun
Originally so beautiful and white
Ridiculously addictive and a nice sight
No one can resist the sensational crunch
So delicious and appetising when I munch

I was invited to join a new writing group for children at Monday’s Child

Hey you tiny fly
That quickly flies by
Don’t land on my food
It is really rude
Just please fly away
You’re not welcome to stay
Don’t make me swat you
But I’ll do it if I have to

Bang boom zoom
Is what I hear!
Eye-catching colours
Fast appear
Bang boom zoom
Is what I hear!
Colourful paint drops
Invade the air
Bang boom zoom
Is what I hear!
Eye catching colours
Slowly disappear
Bang boom zoom
Is what I hear!
These colourful fireworks
I really seem to fear

I wrote this poem when I was 6 years old, it is about kind words! Since then I have not adjusted to it at all, I have left it to capture the way I felt all those years ago. I hope that everybody likes it because it is coming from a little girls heart.
Kind words are like a honey,
You don’t have to buy them with money,
You just say them one by one
And the job is done.
Kind words are really great,
It is good to say them to your mate
Even if it is too late.
If you break up with someone,
You just say a kind word, only one
And then you have more fun.
Kind words are the best medicine
And treatment for the heart,
You don’t need to buy them at the pharmacy,
It is so easy to say them, it’s never hard
Kind words are magic,
If someone is sad,
You only say one or two
And at once they will be glad.

I am not afraid of spiders
I come from a country where there are many
I am not afraid of becoming poor
As I try to save every penny
I am not afraid of ghosts
As close ones to me have died
I am not afraid of being betrayed
As to me many have lied
I am not afraid of not being loved
As I have seen others alone
I am not afraid of not getting my way
As I know how to moan
I am not afraid of death
As it happens to every one
I am not afraid of being bored
As I know how to have fun!

Piano
As my elegant fingers stretch
I hear a sensational sound
I feel my pulse raise and my soul fly
While my feet tap on the ground
What is this magical emotion?
I feel like an angel, strangely perfect
Am I playing the piano?
No one could ever suspect
My heart tinkles and I scrunch me nose
As if I was the symphony
I stop to breath and whip my sweat
And I wonder was that really me?

There was little goldfish
He jumped into a ladies dish
He said, ‘I jumped really high’
‘Please put me back before I get dry’
And there was no more jumping from the fish

The witches ghosts and creepy stuff
Scare you and see if it makes you bluff
They try their best to make you scream
On the horrifying day of Halloween
The villains haunt those weak and frail
Along with vampires, with there faces so pale
They try their best to be terrifyingly mean
On the horrifying day of Halloween
The devils, zombies and Frankenstein too
Are out on a hunt searching for you
They try their best to remain unseen
Until that horrifying day of HALLOWEEN

I’m living in a world
Where hate does not exist
People live in harmony
No one seems to use their fist
I’m living in the world
Where chickens and foxes have dinner together
Just look at the lion and the bear
They are best friends forever
I’m living in the world
Where a fish’s and a shark’s friendship is strong
This world is wonderful
Nothing can go wrong
I’m living in the world
Where I always have a mate
Please don’t say I am dreaming
Because my world is great
