Student Poetry

26 Jun 2015 / Comments Off / in Southland Sings Blog/by Ann Noriel

Here are some poems from Duarte and Monrovia Students who were part of our performance at the Duarte Performing Arts Center. This performance was made possible by  the City of Duarte Cal Grip Grant.

The Raggedy Doll

By Isabella

The raggedy doll’s oval black

eyes stare into my skull from afar.

Its little mouth makes an “O” shape.

The hair is pink the outfit blue

The hat is frilly and so is the skirt.

The nose looks misshapen the head too

The arms and legs are barely sewn on

The raggedy doll can’t even stand on its own.

The arms and feet are barely sewn on.

The raggedy doll that usually scares me and my fearless cat too.

 

Flying

By Antonio

On Wednesdays, just at mid-day I am going to fly with some might

right, right by the Statue of Liberty.

I caught sight of her crown

and her flaming torch…..

 

On Thursday I saw myself

on television, wearing an awesome cape,

zooming right by the Statue of Liberty.

Right, Right by the Statue of Liberty.

 

On Friday it was reported

the Statue of Liberty was missing.

I flew with all my might searching for her.

I looked high…. I looked low

still couldn’t find her.

 

On Saturday, it was a bad day,

searching on the computer

for the Statue of Liberty

till my eyes watered.

 

On Sunday the sun was shining bright with all my might

I flew towards the harbor and there she was

The lady wearing her crown, holding her torch…….

 

Batman

By Andrew

On Saturday I saw Batman

Not on television.

He was flying in the sky

I saw his shadow.

No one would believe me

when I told them Batman was flying in the sky.

 

I ran to tell my parents

They laughed and told me

to eat my breakfast…..

I put my Batman cape on

picked up my bowl of Sugar Pops

clicked the remote and Batman appeared

not in the sky, but back on channel 7
