Pam

Pam

Power cuts,
wrecked roofs.

Badly injured,
death beds.

Mighty wind,
crying skies.

The cyclone has come,
when will it die?

Cyclone

Rain scratched the street with her merciless nails
Wind pierced hearts with ear-splitting wails

The two tangoed in the austere sky 
It is their choice who lives and who dies

The arch of a rainbow, a thankful dry spell
Would be something worth rewarding quite well

But as the eye roves far from sight 
It is clear the duo have surpassed all hope with a galling bite

Joe's Poetry: When lightning strikes

When Lightning strikes,

it flashes as electric charges run through
the ground

when lightning strikes
Zeus grows stronger lightning grows hotter

when lightning strikes
grey & rainy skies always follow
eventually Zeus gets tired then
Poseidon takes his place with a storm

The start of our learning about tessellations using reflection, translation and rotation


Tesselations - Created with Haiku Deck, presentation software that inspires Look for our creations later today...

Roadkill by Riley

   Road-kill

Winter approaches

People are Freezing

Raccoons are packing their bags

Creeping ever so slowly

Not to be caught


Lights flick on

They start to sprint

Though the tall-stalked grass

In to a hidden hole


Out of sight

creeping out carefully 

Not seeing the ROAD

Also the MOTORBIKE

THUD!!!

ROAD-KILL!!!
