Dhairya's Poetry

For the school work in Literacy, Dhairya has written this poetry. He is in Y6. This is a really nice piece of work for a 10 year old, non native English speaker.

My life as a water drop

-        By Dhairya

The tap opened, and I fell out

I felt, I would be swallowed by a snake

I had had a lot in the last few days

Just thinking about it made my head ache.

 

I was squished as an elephant in a closet,

I was kidnapped from my old home

I noticed I was stuck in a pipe,

I had gone right through a large storm.

 

Right now, I was as blue as the sky

Racing rivers ragingly roared

I am a sprinting Cheetah

My best friend said “bye” as I dried.

 

I felt like a microscopic kite,

I was as cold as Mars,

Wet vapor valiantly valid

I saw a pile of cars

 

I was as soft as cotton

I was as white as a sheep

I was as clean as a polished car

I saw a cliff and it was steep.

 

I fell and fell on that cliff

I was a meteorite

My friend said I’ll not die

And he was right.
