It is spring! (Free Form Poem on Spring Time School Backyard)
By: Tristan Pang, Year 7, 9/11/2013
An old friend landing south
silently in our land.
Peaceful, lively, awakening.
A pacifier in our land…
announcing, “I am coming!”.
Robins chirping melodies
symphonic in the air.
Harmony, rhythmic, stunning.
A choir in the air…
singing, “It is spring!”.
Godwits forming patterns
manoeuvring in the sky.
Synchronized, highly collaborated.
Aircrafts in the sky…
showing, “It is spring!”.
Bushes budding flowers
gently on the lawn.
Green, brown and wet.
Factories on the lawn…
revealing, “It is spring!”.
Daisies blossoming petals
blooming on a stick.
Yellow, tiny and bubbly.
Machines on a stick…
presenting, “It is spring!”.
White butterflies fluttering
gliding in the breeze.
Silent, pleasant and pure.
Paper in the breeze…
illuminating, “It is spring!”.
Houseflies buzzing around
irritating on my skin.
Aimless, flying itches.
Intruders on my skin…
declaring, “It is spring!”.
Clouds floating randomly
bobbing in the sea.
White, grey and fluffy.
Sheep in the sea…
sketching, “It is spring!”.
Air releasing freshness
diffuses everywhere.
Natural, divine fragrance.
Zeus everywhere…
emitting, “It is spring!”.
Sun lighting souls
giving warmth to us.
Bright, gentle and friendly.
A protector to us…
proving, “It is spring!”.
Mother Nature so kind
providing the season of spring.
Summer, autumn, winter,
and follows is spring…
“Welcome spring!”
