At school I was so excited, I leaped into the air, because my teacher allowed me to use the computer in class during my play-break to write as many poems as I liked. I really like writing poems. We had a subject called “Colour My World”, so I decided to make up poems of the various colours. I printed them all out on paper, and just managed to finish before the bell rang. I started with BLACK.

Black night sky
Black cold pavement
Black cat hissing in the night
Dark rotten fruit
Dogs bark when it gets dark
Some cats go hunting through the night
While some sleep all night
Avocado on toast (yum)
Blackberry bush – Oh those thorns!
Hanging from the tree is a big black plum
Black fur from a black cat
Black carpet so soft
Black makes me feel sneaky. 
GREY

Grey foggy sky
Grey clouds floating
Rain drips down from the grey clouds
Grey mould sick and old, on the food
Grey cats purring all day
While grey horses go neigh
Mouldy food not eatable
Sitting in the cupboard getting worse
Dad comes home driving in the fog
While the cat plays with the mop
Grey makes me feel depressed. 
YELLOW

Yellow sun glows so bright
All day and not night
Yellow dogs go fetch tennis balls
Yellow cats with stripes
Go sunbathing
Yellow aeroplane flying through the sky
Passing country by country
Bananas are yum
But banana split is my favourite
Walking down the street seeing smiles
Makes me happy…
Yellow is my favourite colour
It makes me glad. 
WHITE

White snow is so cold
White and black huskies pulling a sled
White cats walking through the snow
Vanilla ice cream
Cold yummy snow flakes
White mountain goats climbing so well
Sometimes I go outside and build a snow-man fun
Dalmatian dogs stay inside
White is cold and cute. 
BAY

Bay sunset before it gets dark
Bay wild horses galloping with the wind
Bay guinea pig running on its wheel
Bay peaches on the tree, ready to be picked
Bay is the colour of a beagle’s face
Bay makes me surprised. 
SILVER

Silver cars driving by
Silver dappled horses running round
With the rider on the ground
Silver nugget so rich
While the sea shines in the sun
Going to the dentist to get a silver tooth
Wolves in the forest have silver and grey fur
Mum cooks with a silver pot
While a dappled foal is lying in the straw
Silver makes me feel proud of who I am. 
BROWN

Brown soil under grass
Brown hair on my mask
A chocolate melting in my pocket
A brown sweet lab looking at a cab
A brown horse rearing
Brown makes me feel jealous.
