Peace Poem

For the past few weeks we have been focusing on Peace this is my definite and confirmed peace poem
I hope you enjoy reading my story

            

Laughing out loud,
not caring if there’s a crowd
Laughing out loud
Hard to be quiet.
Maybe we should try it
Laughing out loud
Does it matter if its a special date.
Rolling On The Floor Laughing
laughing so hard
Our laughs heard afar
Rolling on the floor laughing
Is it just an expression?
Well I do it every day no confession
Rolling on the floor laughing,
because thats how we roll
wink !wink!
What is mine
will define.
That I want peace
sprouting between the trees.

Mavis Peace Poem


In class throughout the week we wrote poems and created raps. As a group we made a rap called "If You Drink And Drive" a topic given to us by our teacher but influenced by the truth of the reckless results of drinking and driving. 
For my individual poem I wrote the poem below
NONE OF THE POEM BELOW WAS COPIED CREATED AND INSPIRED BY MY OWN MIND, IF THERE IS A POEM SIMILAR TO THIS 

In the breezes of the street
defining the term free
It’ll come to be
what we want is peace


In the path of the sun
lays what’s done.
The past’s craft
the futures draft.

While the blood is red
with the war creating dead.
people losing their heads
cannot rest on their beds.

Enjoy the hours,
the sun setting with the flowers.
As rain pours down
creating showers.


Fall and Die
leaving someone to cry
death never lies
so no one denies
don’t fear death
fear being alive.
but peace is what we realise

What is mine
will define.
That I want peace
sprouting between the trees.

Narrative Practise - My Halloween Story

Ola! For writing this week me and other students my years had to write a narrative as practise for our assessment next week. I,along with other students discovered we all shared a desire to write a narrative based on the theme horror. Here is my story.
WARNING
IF YOU DO NOT ENJOY HEARING ABOUT GUTS OR REALLY SQUEAMISH THEN PLEASE DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER. 
IF YOU LOVE GUTS AND EXPLODING BODY PARTS...DO CONTINUE.


Two girls fell into the depths of the dark water that lay waiting in the centre of the coal mine.Then as the eclipse dawned on the water. Two girls emerged...re-born.


Crawling out of her split open stomach, invading the ebony ground, gorged out poison infected by blood and spewing with maggots. They dig deeper into her flesh biting harder into the bone. Guts trickle out of the corner of her sewn mouth. Her chest wide open infused by the anguish of her revolting and grotesque death is pounding with dead centipedes flinching and crippling with vomit.She dips her finger into her chest and shoves it into the space big enough to fit it. She smears it around the inside of her mouth enjoying the taste.


She drives herself deeper into the heart of the coal mine vomiting and groaning.
“Muere’s here  Muere is starving”
Screams ripped through the coal, sending ancient bone rattling around the tunnels. Her eyes flicked around. Foot steps stumbled forward. Haunting screams of pain,disdain and disgust ruptured her decaying ears. Into the mouth of a girl. Digging deeper into her flesh, thirsty for more lay an Asesino Bug (killer bug) it lept up further and further. Tripping over exploded intestines,shrivelling kidneys,drained livers and a cracking heart the bug fell into the eye socket shoving the eyeball out as it made itself more visible to the dying eye as a bug drenched with blood.



Another child ran forward unaware of the dangers that would befall him. He yelped as he came upon the bodies.
“Oh mother of satan”
The two girls latched onto his scent chasing him through the tunnels wondering why their prey was running. Denahi threw his backpack down onto the ground he cried out
“Somebody help me!Please!”


At the tunnels up ahead he saw one of the tunnels were pitch black while the other was illuminated by the glory of light. It filtered through the tunnel and bursting with happiness. Autumn leaves lay crinkled down the path. Sounds of the wind running past the cracks whispered into his ears. Pulling him closer to the exit, closer to dreams.He slithered into the tunnel, the two girl were following behind him unaware that their hideous mutations were fading..fading into the dark.



He clambered up the whole he found up ahead he. Thinking he escaped horror he started slipping to a slower climbing pace. He felt something scratching at his legs. Finally that something had a grip on his leg. He turned down to find Muere and Ariana-Blue grinning foolishly. He heaved himself to the top  finally he felt the hard skin start to soften under the daylight. He turned around to see the girls that went missing 5 years ago at the age of 10. They were his sisters. They grinned from ear to ear and sighed in unison
“We do belong here”
Muere stated
"People called my Muere so I got a liking to it and adapted to it oh but seriously guys my name Nina"

Glossary
Muere - Death
Asesino - Killer
Ariana Blue & Nina my own characters
