Curious city
Rain on the Roof Mara Benjamin, Grade 8 Middleton Rain is falling Rain is falling On the roof It’s the pounding of a drum But if you really listen It almost sounds like you’re on the beach The ocean waves When they’re crashing down But there is something missing The cry of the gulls And it makes it lonely if you really are Imagining that you’re at the beach Because without seagulls It’s just not the beach anymore However, there is another perspective One that goes much, much deeper…
It Hope Carter, Grade 7 Caldwell She ran. She slowed. He ran. He sprinted. She breathes. He puffs. It comes. It sees. It runs. They run. He grabs. She drags. It sprints. They run. It chases. They fall. It catches. She screams. He cries. It bites. They fight. It wins. He runs. She fades. He walks. It grumbles. He falls. It goes. He lays.
