Poetry is exciting                                 
Poetry can be funny                                                   
Poetry can be relaxing
Poetry is fantastic
Poetry is fun
Poetry is sometimes silly
Poetry can be historical
Poetry can be hysterical
Poetry is humorous
Poetry is stunning
Poetry sometimes makes me laugh
Poetry sometimes makes me think
Poetry sometimes makes me smile
Poetry is entertaining
Poetry can be performed
Poetry makes you confident
Poetry can be joyful
Poetry can be sad
Poetry sometimes rhymes
Sometimes it doesn’t
We all see pictures with different poems
A poem can be as long or as short as you want.

Poetry makes me use my imagination.

BALLYGOLAN

 

Out in the countryside
There's a house;
32 Meadowvale, Saintfield,
Where a family does nothing on Saturday,
But goes to their Nanny's on Sunday.
 
Around The Cavehill there's Victoria Square
Where you can shop til you drop.
Below The Cavehiil there's a zoo
Where people wander and enjoy the animals.
 
And there's a school, Balygolan,
Where Rhys gets bored
And Mr. Mc Clean gets cross.

In Belfast

In Belfast where I live
We have a City Hall.
As you go in there are huge stairs.
Outside are trees, and a statue of Queen Victoria.
In Belfast where I live
We have Windsor Park.
David Healy scored a goal and we beat England.
Mrs. Healy was there, singing and shouting
And jumping up and down.
In Belfast where I live
We have a zoo below Cavehill.
I went there at Easter
To see the meercats.
The meercats were inquisitive.

Stranmillis Primary School


Belfast


In Belfast where I live there are docks
Where the mighty ‘Titanic’ was made.
Thousands of people were on the ship when it sank.

In Belfast where I live there’s a statue with a ring,
The spirit of Belfast, which is freedom.

In Belfast where I live there’s W5,
It’s called that because there are 5 Ws,
WHO, WHERE, WHEN, WHAT, WHY.

In Belfast where I live there’s the City Hall.
I went there once to receive a prize.

Christopher Doyle, Stranmillis Primary School.

A NEW STORM

By Aidan O’Neill

 

A sunny day.
Friends came round,
Went to the park.
A storm started,
Jumped in the river.
Friends followed me.
Icy cold.
Walked in the river,
Human fish.
Rain came,
Raced to car.
Reached Mr T,
Chips,
Hot and steamy.
Windows clouded up.
