Nature Poetry
Frederick Challacombe Year 7
The yew reaching out Poisoning the ground And drinking from the sun
The little cracks In the sun-beaten ground And the grass begging for water
The sea of moss Washes over the ground And moves towards a rotting tree
Leaf
Sujaan Kochhar Year 7
Millions of beings Unified in a whole Light shines on the dome of trees Like a holy temple I float above the rolling hills
Tossing and turning Like a stressed man Restlessly sleeping I watch over my brothers And feel despair at my solitude The jovial blue sky Gazes over the unmarked graves of millions of forgotten lives
Lush shrubs spring from the earth To be greeted by their own death They do not live to realise
The transience of life A spiritual paradox unsolvable
