World Poetry Day
We had a special guest today to attend our Junior Writers' Club. Well, he couldn't come in person, so we stepped into his writing shed and Jonny Fluffypunk guided us through a poetry writing session.
Here's his video, and if you'd like to do it again ... well, YOU CAN!

Here are a few poems fro that workshop. Enjoy!
Take me away to ……
Take me away to India
I smell the lit up fire of a barbeque
Take me there in a golden bus which has 10 wheels and 8 radios playing songs the whole journey
I’ll be wearing a blue and red striped T-shirt with shining words saying ‘I am in India’
When I reach there my grandpa will be waiting for me
with a video game
I’ll hug my Grandpa
I’ll have a go at the video games
I’ll wave my arms and say “I will never leave to another country”
I will fall asleep and dream of the same thing that happened today

Take me away
Take me away to the moon.
Take me in a rainbow coloured rocket with 10 boosters.
I will be wearing a rainbow jacket and a pair of wings that say I love my life!
And when I get there my friend will be waiting to leap me up and down!
And I will fall asleep slipping into my dreams.
Diptanshu Dutt
Take me away
Take me away to the beach with lovely palm trees and dark
blue water .
Take me there in a red plane scooter with golden colour
stripers.
I will be wearing a green, flowery jumpsuit and pink trainers.
And when I get there Samriddhi my friend will be carrying a
pretty gift.
I'll open the gift and it will be a flying rocket.
We will fly in it and shout , "We are free!"
I will fall asleep and dive into dream world.
