Counting Down - A Poem by Bibibella M
We love this clever poem from school journalist, Bibi M in Year 9, who has cleverly reflected the number of days left of term in the number of words in each line of her poem.
14: excitement ricochets around the familiar school building, change beckons to the students each day,
13: adrenaline rush hits, for the summer is looming, and students’ voices are booming,
12: sun rays beam through open windows taunting, teasing but we keep learning,
11: reports delivered to apprehensive students, their school year in a list,
10: last minute plans with friends, promises to stay in touch,
9: homework to remember, ensure it’s done before September!
8: Final Sunday this school year turns to Monday,
7: amble in through the school gates,
6: summer is close enough to touch,
5: make every last lesson count,
4: It is so close,
3: to being over,
2: it's nearly,
1: done.
