Eiffle Tower


Like a solider standing tall guarding Paris, the Eiffel tower defends the people.  In sunlight the metal gold giant sways to the song of the breeze.  Parisians glaring up at it . Silently the monolith shines in golden light.  How long will I stay? It asks.  It’s the guardian of Paris.  You can see it from Genoble.

Evie and Sam A




Like a giant solider seeking safety.  The Eiffle tower feels protected.  Under the horizon the steel lady sways through the beams of light.  Metal glow’s like a thousand shooting stars reading up to space.  Iron shatters in the morning light.  How long will I stand here? It wonders.  It’s Paris’ beast, you can see it from Burgandy.

Molly


Like a centurion watching over Paris it guards the city.  In the twilight sky it looks like a giant made of century old iron..  Where is Gustave, my maker? It wonders.  It’s the beast of Paris, you can see it from Burdandy.

Lizzie






Like a Greek solider swaying in the horizon, the Eiffle tower is getting tired.  In the moonlight, the iron gets weaker, the steal planks are weaving like snakes trying to get back to their eggs.  Who are those strangers? She wonders.  It’s a beast spying on Paris.

Fergus




Like a solider on guard, the Eiffle Tower is watching all the people in Paris.  In the sunlight the steel starts to burn and it looks like it is melting down the tower.  The beams are like a slippery snake, they are all yellow and gold.  Gurders fight like stipey snakes competing for space.  How long have I been standing here it asks.  Its an iron giant looking over Paris.  You can see it from Provonce.

Annika

Like a solider facing the sunset the Eiffle tower relaxes and sighs.  The steel shatters into dark shadows.  The beautiful black beast says I’m the iron lady.  It’s Paris’s knight, you can see it from Nise.

The Seinne


These pieces of writing describe the River Seinne in Paris.  The idea was to “over alliterate”, use personification and metaphor


The Seinne is scattered with shells from the shore.  It slithers silently to
San-Sur-Marne for special seaweed water.  Shameful sandy creeks shatter painfully onto it’s scaly slimy back.  Sharp seagulls beaks squeak softly on the shore.

Molly, Julia and Logan

The River Seinne is safe and sound. Shifting along the slippery city it goes. It shatters on the shore. It’s a big Snake curling around the Eiffel Tower.

Aniika and Lizzie

The seinne is a basilisk.
Slithering through the shining salty water. Lonely. secretly the seagulls scream and shout like insane lunatics.
The serpent weaves it's way to the sabazan.

Fergus and Sam

The seinne is a basilisk!  It slithers through shelly corridors.  The seagulls shriek at it’s sight, flapping their wings and soaring away.  In moonlight it winds up the Eiffel Tower.  It’s a snake wrapped around a pole in Paris.  The snake acts like a doormat.  It rings a bell at a door and it runs around town scaring it’s prey.

Evie and Katie

The river shimmers in the sunlight.
Like a sharp shell corridor slipping into the upper world and slithering up the Eiffel Tower.

Thoughts skate though my mind as I get ready to drop in

Fear trickles through my veins as I look down at the mouth-watering transition

As I drop in, a stream of freezing cold air sprays in my face

A river of joy flies through my head as I conquer my fear

A tide of happiness rises in my mind as I wonder what I do on the other side

Waves of ideas fight for my choice as I enjoy the ride

Keryn's String Poems

While time ticks by unnoticed
I contemplate a future
Without confusion lurking at every turn
Without a scatter of choices left unmade
But it is a puzzle I cannot solve; not yet
Until I connect the dots of the past

Radio chain
As music creeps into my mind
And the calm sun dances in the newly awoken sky
The sea calls me to come and play
As the waves lick my bare toes
And soft white foam smothers golden sand
The birds swoop through clouds
while they pilot uncharted skies

Keryn's String Poems

The wolf leader stands on the cliff, calling his troops to do his command

The ruler of the world, wailing to his fellow mates

Wolf emperor, howling to the moon with his head held high

His call resonates through the frozen land

Taking command of all noble wolves - he is truly one of the greats

The chief is king of all animals, no one tells him what to do

He will stand where he stands

And his howl is a memorandum across the valley to all the wolves

To protect him with their own, single lives

The moon looks down on me
gazing at every movement
I'm walking across the grainy sand
ripples from the sea trickling and
creeping
up to the shore
dark, devouring clouds taking over the moon's shine
They start floating away
bringing back the blinding glow
I stare up at the ball of light, hypnotised by its power

BLOODY
CRIMSON

A flood of energy washed through his yearning figure
The sapphire, alpha form initiated, with its immeasurable power
His former strength was returned and surpassed
Courage mounted within the belly of the beast
A battle was imminent, for the tension in the air was strong
The two animals fought a bloody fight but there was only to be one victor
It was him
the one with the blue cloak around him now matted with crimson life

Ode to a Road Cone

A lonely battered soldier
A witches hat they say
Just a worker doing a job
but on one cares anyway

A solemn little becon
A zebra, orange and white
Sadly cannot find a friend
though try as they might

An ode to a road cone
life's road safety king
Thanks for everything you've done
and the being that you bring
