Poetry

We have been writing poetry and soon we will be writing songs too.  We started using a poem by Jacob Sam-La Rose, A life in Dreams. There is so much to say about Dreams, much of it pretty strange.   We are also filling our 'Poet's Toolbox', with metaphors and similes, personification and alliteration, consonance and assonance, and many more, to make our poems sound good and make the reader imagine!

                                          Whose that dreaming? Who's that imagining?

There Have Been Dreams          by Adam

Their have been dreams silent as night with creatures slowly creeping up behind, but turning around, not a sign


Their have been dreams with never ending falls it just keeps going, going

but when I hit the ground, gone.


Their have been dreams were nothing is right, upside down buildings, cars only go backwards, people shuffle around on their butts, again nothing is right



There have been dreams where giant bloody eyeballs come chasing, I turn around the corner, there it is again

chasing,

chasing,

Chasing

then all of a sudden just as fast as it started, it's done

Dreams.                                 by Jasmine


All the times you looked so boring

now it's really coming to life.


And there have been times

When you just don't know what you did

Wrong and now you see it all.



There have been times when you’re there

You’re at the existing time

And you suddenly wake up

Back in your boring old room in bed.


There have been times when dreams

Keep appearing back in your head.



There have been times when the house

Was falling down.


By Jasmine
