Survivors Guilt

1
by Jessica Lily Thompson

As I open my eyes
unaware of the position
where another body lies
I am greeted with gasps of joy
so I am hugged and am lured
into the excitement like a koi.

I look to my left and I see a young boy
sleeping peacefully alone
I see his chest slowly rise
I look to my right and I see an older girl
she isn’t alone
surrounded by the people she used to love
who were crying in pain and holding her
I wonder if her chest would never rise

I am presented with a sloppy kiss
from my Aunt Joe
that girl got a kiss
but it was sodden from tears
I wonder if it was her Aunt who kissed her

The machines I have make a steady
repeating – Beep… Beep – in time to my heart
The machines she had didn’t make any noise
I wonder why her’s didn’t go in time with her heart

There is overlapping noise from every direction
Closer to me, people talk
about how grateful they are to see me again
I wonder if they talked
about how grateful they were
to have seen her one last time

Anime is such a good thing that everyone can enjoy
Nothing is better than anime
In my eyes anime is amazing
My favourite is Attack on Titan
Everyone should like anime, but it’s just people’s opinion

Stress VS Exams

0
by Layla Balt

Exams loom, a weight on the mind
A burden heavy, a stress to unwind
Days blend together, a blur of time
As studying consumes, a constant grind

The pressure mounts, a sense of fear
A dread of failure, a constant peer
Overwhelmed and anxious, a feeling so real
A sense of calm, a distant ideal

Sleepless nights, a tired-eyes gaze
A mind racing, a never-ending maze
Questions swirl, a jumble of thought
A search for answers, desperately sought

But then it ends, a final sigh
A relief washes, a feeling to the sky
A weight lifted, a burden released
A sense of pride, a joy increased.

Ever Blooming Trees

by Hava Omer

Trees: Our life support
Trees: The one thing we don’t appreciate
Look left and right, don’t be afraid
The trees surrounding you, they’ll be willing to give you some shade.
A mother to nature.
A mother to us.
Provides us with oxygen day and night.
Fights for us like a knight.
Absorbs toxic gases like carbon dioxide to keep us alive.
Sways with the wind on the winter months.
Providing us with food, so we don’t starve
From apples to oranges, delicious produce
All is from a mother’s angelic hands, and contagious smile, that makes your hunger diffuse.

Not only they make us meals right in front of our sight,
They help us with hypothesises, which can change our light
Nature mother knows the best
Dropped an apple Newton’s head
This lead him to uncover the Newton Law!
This was from a discovery called gravity, and yes there is more…
They rock back and forth in the daylight
Making a perfect painting for Ansel Adams to copywrite, and become a socialite.

However, There is a dark side to our nature mothers…
LIMBO!
LIMBOO!
LIMBOOO!
Trees getting sliced in half, practically amputated.
Back stabbed into machines
Coming out as paper, or worse
What is this all worth?
For our nature mothers to be chopped up into pieces like a slice of ham,
And for us to not show a little sympathy?
For the amount of biodiversity living in the trees
Show some respect!
You could protect these pure souls with ease.
If someone smashes your house into smithereens, you would want justice
Well start thinking the same about the insects, to the mammals,
to the Earth’s atmosphere, to the vegetarian animals.
All this takes is a little bit of practice.
But this is our planet after all,
So, let’s learn to show it some service.
Rather than being careless.

For the ancient vines running down it’s bark
Covered in moss, and algae
Just one look at this masterpiece could turn you blind.
It’s a therapeutic sight
It drowns your worry in a flurry.
It creates beautiful images in your cerebrum
Wiser than the other organism (humans),
It stands proud
Towering over houses, and bushes
Magnificent all way round.
With its friendly long branches ready to hand out a warm hug.
To its prehistorical roots tangled below the Earth’s crust.
It communicates with a sway,
You can see it from your bay
Then it finally drops its leaves
As it’s time for Autumn’s sneeze.

Trees: Ancient wonders
Trees: If only people saw the purpose of them.
Being dominant one second,
Collapsing the second
These trees are losing their power,
The numbers of them are descending by the hour.
THEY ARE DROPPING LIKE FLIES!
Time to communicate with the other countries!
Maybe if we would stop cutting them down,
There would be more bird’s nests, and hives for bees.

Young Mr Willy
well known to be silly
was once peacefully walking
and also was talking
to young little Billy
who was thinking, “How silly.”
But all of a sudden
with a very loud crack
Willy snapped his back
This was a little bit silly
for he was walking with Billy
who, with a suspicions spin
fell into a bin

Jolly Little Rabbit

The jolly little rabbit,
what a jolly little guy,
He jumps around all day long,
without a thought of why.
One day he finds a hole
a deep, dark scary one.
He was not scared at all
so he jumped over it and kept on his run.
After jumping for a while
he came across a little pile,
of perfect juicy golden carrots,
but feasting upon them were a group of other rabbits.
“Please! Please!” he exclaimed, “Can we share these carrots?”
“Of course of course,” answered all of the other rabbits.
Now they all sit there, feasting on carrots,
and that’s the end of the tale
of this jolly little rabbit.
