    At home
    staying at home is
    boring,people say it’s amazing but it’s more like
    nothing to do,however i have
    a cat who lays outside
    or on a mat or cushion inside,then me over
    here wearing my hat for
    no reason.But when
    i go on a walk and the sun is out
    i feel like the sun is a king or Queen because all of the
    trees move when the sun
    comes out normally.

    Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh
    Somebody is in the garden bush
    Long tails, green lights
    They are my cats!
    They are on a haunting spree
    But they found only one bee
    Let me give you some food
    Because of your bad mood

    The sun appeared

    I enjoy the sun shine,
    With the breeze from the trees,
    So, the sky was shy,
    As the flowers had their showers,
    The sun appeared,

    Dan’s dark dog barks like a man in the fog,
    Tiny tin tiger finding an armour,
    Army at attention went quickly as detention,
    The sun was strong and powerful as our son was broad and weak,
    The lush leaves were appealing as the brushed sleeves,
    The sun appeared,

    The sharpness of the sword was weak as the radish part of the stem,
    As the moon shone brightly the boom slightly shone,
    The leaf blew like a bird catching its prey,
    The heat blasted like a rocket attacking the heat,
    The sun appeared,

    The gorilla gave up like an animal attacked it,
    Some countries are so hot that like UK is only hot as the morning,
    The sun was a fiery monster,
    The rain attacked the sun and lost,
    The flowers were following the sun,
    The days get stronger,
    The sun appeared,

    The grass waved it hands,
    The clouds melted,
    The power of the sun is getting stronger,
    The rain moved on,
    The sun appeared with the environment,

    BY THE SEA.
    At a shiny, shimmering, sea,
    Sand covers land but gets covered,
    Water flows sand like a fossil inside,
    Sedimentary rock,
    Beach huts fill with stuff like a bin,
    Sites of ruins covered in straight through like a river,
    Wrecks fade into myth as people see some,

    The day I work extra hard
    In the morning I wake up, prepared to doing my hard work eating my breakfast now it is time all my hard work. now if done everything it is time to go on my road trip to my football pitch. Now im doing training a good 30 minutes work.

    Now I am on the football pitch I think it is time to do my bits by that I mean by scoring goals by winning the match comfortable maybe I can get three goals that means I will have the golden goal and if I have the golden boat that mean I am baller.

    SUMMER TIME
    I get sand hands,
    when I play in the sand,
    I also like to kick a ball,
    and make a sand wall,
    and then I cool down.

    I love to swim,
    In a paddling pool,
    filled to the brim,
    keeping me nice and cool.

    I like to run on green grass,
    because it’s like natures carpet,
    The grass is like a green pass,
    on the way to the market.

    We get thunder and lightning,
    filling up the sky,
    it can be very frightening,
    but it gives me a high.

      Well done Max. I love that you have used rhyming couplets in your poem. I definitely need a full paddling pool today!

    Sunny Days

    What’s better than the summer’s breeze,
    When you stand between the tall trees.
    Strong, slithery snakes sneaking suspiciously at scared snails,
    And what else…
    There is so much happening in nature,
    Summer is the best time for us to see it.
    I hear plenty of bees buzzing,
    And barbeques sizzling,
    Cool cars cruising completely crazy.
    The sun is excited for another hot day,
    The sea is nice and refreshing,
    The glittery waves make their own way.
    Playing volleyball next to the sandy beach,
    And at the end, for a treat, we eat a juicy peach.

      Don’t worry Talal, we can see your work. We have to approve it before it will post for you to see so it will look like it is just disappearing.

    Summer
    Bright sun shining,
    Warmth around,
    On clear, blue sky,
    Not a single could,

    The sandy and dry beach,
    Where the sun is too hard to reach,
    The fun is as sweet as a peach,
    Later I might need some bleach,

    The sea is nice and cold,
    The reflection of the sun is gold,
    It is a secret,
    With a million mysteries to unfold,
