Primary 7 and Mrs Grant were thrilled when recently, Kate Clanchy, author, educator and poet, tweeted about our blog. She has retweeted the occasional poem from the school account and this is such positive reinforcement for our young poets. Well done Primary 7, your teacher is very proud of you and your work. And thank you Kate.
Do you sometimes want to disappear, go unnoticed, have no attention drawn to you? Maybe you would like to go in disguise somewhere so no one would recognise you.
The reverse might be true, you want to stand out, have people look up to you and admire you. Laugh at your jokes. Whatever you want to be or however you want others to see you this is a great poem to express just that!
Primary 7 have written poems after listening to Selima Hill’s Cow poem and another from our own S6 pupil, Emma.
P7 worked with S6 earlier in the year and really enjoyed hearing their voices and getting some feedback on their own creative work. A big thank you to Emma for giving us her poem as part of our lesson. P7 thought her poem was very moving and talked at length about the different parts.
My Heart
Now I can run on the wind
My skin like a velvet shiver on the breeze
My hooves passing over the grass
In leaps too great to be measured
My mane trembling like the boiling clouds
You will feel my breath
In the sounds of the sky
Now I can run
In these great wild rolling hills of time
I am free
I am really free
Hear in
The
Spaces of
Your heart
