This week, Mrs McGeary's writing group has been reading and writing Haiku poetry. We were inspired by rendu about the months of the year and decided to write one of our own about our school playground at various times during the day.
The sun has just woken up
But kids have been playing
Ready for school
Arriving at school
Ready for class,almost
Talking and playing games
Hustle and bustle
Children doing sport, laughter
Hundreds of pigeons
There is a gas smell
It is an early recess
It will, never end
Joy and glee are alive
Happy kids play and thrive
The bell rings, silence
It's near empty now,
Footsteps, a whisper, a shout
Silence, soon broken
They're back
They run around on my body
I scream, but nobody hears
Children playing sport
ding-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling
Home time finally
Kids hugging parents
Children running to FLASCA
Getting on the bus
The sun still has light,
Energetic FLASCA kids
Having fun outside
Getting dark outside
Kids have gone home without a fuss
not a sound is heard
Cold air blowing in the moonlight
Rubbish trailing behind
There is no one left here
