Yellow

Yellow is the sun that shines so brightly

Yellow is a bumble bee that buzzes and bites

Yellow is the pollen that floats through the air

Yellow is cheese that's nice and tasty

But something that makes me sneeze is a lemon

Morning

Morning is like the colour of a bright yellow.

It smells like a beautiful blossom.

It tastes like a delirious lolly ice.

It sounds like a bird sinning in the trees.

It feels nice and happy.

Morning lives after night.

Insanity

You see colours that come from nowhere.

It smells like torture and you're the only one suffering.

It tastes like rotton water not cleaned.

It sounds like people talking about you "saying how weird you are".

Insanity feels weird like your mind is elsewhere.

Not much pride in being insane.

Insanity lives inside your mind trying to escape.

A.D.H.D

ADHD is the colour of pale red like the sun setting.

It smells of a dark brown mood in a lonely cave.

ADHD tastes like a poisonous spider.

It sounds like a dark gruesome howl in the middle of nowhere.

It feels like you're excited inside.

ADHD lives in your body and your brain.

Don't worry about it

Pride

Pride is like the sun all bright yellow and red

It smells like a bright red rose lying on a flower bed

It tastes like the finest flood in the world

It sounds like success

It feels like soft wool rubbing across your skin

Pride always Lives in your heart for ever.

Love

Love is like a pink and red heart

You can't see it

But you can feel it

Love smells like blossom on the trees

Love sounds soft and gentle

All around

Love tastes sweet like chocolate

That melts in your mouth

Love lives in you

So when you feel lonely

Just get it out.

Bullying

Bullying is about wearing a blue band

It smells like rubbish on a dump

Bullying feels like salt on a wound

It sounds like children crying and screaming

It tastes like poison

Bullying lives inside nasty human beings

I saw a baby vampire!!!

One day I saw a baby flying in the night

It flew towards the moon

One day I saw a baby flying high in the sky

I saw a baby Vampire!!!

I rubbed my eyes again and ...

... It swooped down and bit my neck

I too turned into a Vampire!!!

And off I flew.

GUNS

(IN MEMORY OF RHYS JONES)

Guns, why does everyone think they are great?

They are used to kill out of hate.

Guns aren't toys, they can harm

It isn't good to own a firearm.

Get guns out of here really snappy

Why do people get trigger happy?

Shotguns, Uzis, Rifles and Nines

Why does everyone think they are fine?

Firearms and guns we have to beat.

Let's get guns off our street!

Gangsters use them in the 'hood

Let's get rid of guns for good.

Can't you see guns take lives?

They take children, husbands, old people and wives.

So people of the world unite,

We have to stand up and fight!

And killers? Forget them, do not pity.

Let's get guns out of Liverpool city.

The Couple

When cupid smiled upon you

And then he started to say

I declare you girl and boy

And together forever you will stay

Boys look after your girl

Treat her like a princess

Buy her everything that she needs

Like shoes, make up and a dress

And girls look after your boy

You know he's not made of pearls

But when you go out with him

Make sure he don't look at girls

You will make a perfect pair

The perfect Juliet and Romeo

Into the sunset you will go

You will have the best wedding

You will have the best kids

But don't under any circumstances

Flip your lids

Scary story...

And then I saw it, I was amazed it was black with two big red eyes like blazing coals which seemed to gaze right at me. It was the size of a tiger and it's skin was covered in thick dark fur. It seemed to give off a smell like rotten flesh and as I stood rigid with fear it began to move towards me. I took a step back feeling as though my legs were like lead. It moved slowly and purposefully keeping it's fiery eyes on mine. It backed me into a corner of the kitchen put his hands around my neck and squeezed - I saw my life flashing in front of me - and it was not good, when all of a sudden he ripped his head off and to my horror it was my best mate in a Halloween costume holding a dead rat.

Building a dragon

Once I built a dragon three times the size of you

I made him out of cardboard, chicken wire and glue

It took me weeks and weeks until I got him right

I hid him in the loft by day and worked on him by night

The cardboard came from boxes I asked the grocer for

I borrowed tins of paint from Mr Brown next door

It took me weeks and weeks (well 4 at least, no 5)

And then I got a nasty shock; The dragon came alive!

It burst out through the roof so I could see the stars

Went crashing down the road and damaged several cars

I've looked for him for weeks and weeks, where did my dragon go?

If anyone has seen him, will they kindly let me know?

His teeth are white the flames are red and yellow

He breathes fire and when he finished off he flew

The show must go on!

I am 22 years old. I live with my mum and dad. They are good to me when I need them. They are always there for me when sick or upset. All my life I have dreamed of being a star on Broadway or the West-End. Hopefully one day I will see my name in lights.

One day I was sitting at the dinner table having my dinner. I was enjoying my meal, I had finished. I went into the living room. I sat down and picked up the newspaper and began to read it. I was flicking through the paper then I saw an add saying "Casting"! for a new West-End musical called "Wicked". It was my chance to become a star. Kerry read on and saw that the auditions were tomorrow. She could not wait. The following morning I woke up, dressed and washed. I ran down the stairs as fast as I could. Kerry grabbed a piece of toast and flew out of the door. Kerry arrived at the Apollo Victoria Theater. She gave her name in and waited to audition for the part. It was 4.15pm. I had waited all day to audition and knew it was my turn at last. My heart was racing like mad. I opened the doors and I thought to my self, my dream had come true.

Kerry was in there for an hour. At last she came out and shoutes "I got the main part!". She was thrilled to bits. I was the happiest woman on this earth. I couldn't wait. Kerry later arrives home and told her parents.

They were so happy for her. The next day Kerry caught the tube into the centre of London and arrived at the theater where she began her six week of rehearsals and learning her part.

At last I said to myself the day has come, it's opening night. THat evening I made my way to Londons Appollo Victoria Theater. I got ready, Kerry had put her make up and her costume on. She looked brilliant, it was almost 7.30pm, and that means it;s very close to showtime. I was so nervous, I was having second thoughts about it but I went on stage, the curtain lifted and I began to sing.

The show ended and everyone was still clapping. I changed back into my own clothes, as I was leaving a strange man pulled me up and said "my name is Andrew Lloyd Webber, I saw your show tonight, I was amazed and Kerry would you like to go to broadway and be in a new show?" "That would be my pleasure" answered Kerry. Ten weeks later, Kerry had left wicked because the show was over. Kerry was now doing 8 shows a week on broadway. Andrew Lloyd Webber was thrilled. Kerry's dream had come true.
