Year 7 Writing
By Lisa Dixon | Posted: Wednesday August 21, 2024
With the weight of her country on her shoulders,
And on her second go,
Cowering under the pressure,
She rocks back and forth,
Her arms swing around him,
She crouches, Waiting,
Like a tiger about to strike,
A trickle of sweat drips down her forehead,
She starts,
Building up speed,
Sprints,
Blurs,
Leaps,
And she’s airborn,
Soaring high above her height,
His shirt scraping the red and white candycane,
The bar,
Shifts to and fro,
Wobbles from side to side,
Bends,
Twitches,
Wavers,
Rocks,
Hesitates,
The silence is devastating,
And then...
And then...
And then...
Falls down in front of her feet.
By Teagan
Happiness
Happiness is there for you,
When you are feeling down.
Happiness is fizzy,
With bubbles all around.
Happiness is warm and fresh,
Like bread just finished cooking.
Happiness is everywhere,
You just need to start looking.
Happiness is bright,
Like flowers unfurling in a park.
Happiness makes a brilliant light,
So you can see when its dark.
Happiness is yellow,
Like young ducks in their nest.
Happiness just fills you up,
It really is the best!

Last seconds on the clock,
Two points behind ,
His teammate passes the ball,
He dribbles,
Sprinting past defenders,
The cheers ROAR through the stadium,
He looks up at the clock,
A buzz booms through court,
Time slows down,
The boy thinks to himself what do I do? The rush shatters his mind,
Burning, Breaking,
Bursting,
The boy with a burst of determination,
Hurls the orange ball flying through the air,
It zooms,
Flys,
Plummets,
Waits,
And then
And then
And then
SWOOSH,
The crowd erupts in cheers! By Will
The ball stares me in the face menacingly,
The keeper standing ready,
Beads of sweat drip down my face,
The crowed hushes to a silence,
Legs apart,
Eye on the ball,
I take a deep breath and step up,
I hit the ball with all force,
I freeze as I hear the deafening sound of my Foot striking the ball.
The ball swerves left then right,
It wobbles,
Curves,
Sways,
The keeper dives,
But the ball saws over his head and hits the Net with a satisfying swoosh,
My team charges to lift me up,
As the crowd cheers we slowly walk off the Pitch. By Kalis
If I was a storm,
I would spread my
dark, cloudy arms
across cities, fields
and farms.
I would roar and strike terror into the
hearts of all who gazes upon me.
I would howl with a ferocity
unmatched by any wolf as I charge through alleyways and windows.
I would make the ground swelland churn
with just a breath.
But when my time runs out,when, energy
has been exhausted, when I have
ravaged the fields and crippled the
cities, I would disappear as
fast as I came. Oskar room 8
If I were a storm,
I would beat against the
window panes like the sound of drums.
I would take over the sky covering it
with a dark blanket of darkness.
I would let out all my anger sending
bullets of hail to the ground.
I would flip trampolines making them fly,
launching bins sliding down the street causing mayhem.
But soon it will be time to pick up my
dark blanket of sadness
and move on- Amelia Room 8
If I were a storm,
I would cackle with laughter,
illuminating the sorrowful sky
with crackles of lightning.
I would whip at the untouched
panes of glass, banging
and beating at them till they cowered.
I would spit at the roads, forests, cities
and people. Showering them, making
my presence feared.
I would outstretch my darkness, engulfing
the sky in a lonely cloud of darkness.
I would whine and cry with the seas
feisty bites back, waves crashed against
the shoreline, lapping angrily at the sand.
I would growl insults at the sun as it shon
Its blazing rays at my endless pit of
spite, I dissipated over mountains
Waiting for another fresh
chance to strike. Macie Roo
The silence was screaming,
The cameras were beaming,
8 of the best,crouched in the starting blocks, in the center of eyes.
Lane 4 gently brushes her hand along her legs,
Every eye looking dead at the ground,
Stillness floats over the track
The gun
Nudges up
Twitches,
Shakes,
hesitates
Until every eye is bulging out,
Suddenly,
Suddenly,
Suddenly,
BANG! By Elyanah
