My New Poem

I was asked by my school to write a poem with the title My Magic Box. This is what I came up with. I got top marks for my work from school. Do you like it?

The Magic Box

I will put in the box

A quiet purring sound of an old Rolls Royce

A loud thundering sound of a big Lamborghini

A big rumbling sound of a McLaren P1

I will put in the box

A happy gurgle of a little baby

A big throaty laugh of a dear loved one

A quiet smile of a favourite teacher

I will put in the box

A big rumbling roar of a thunderstorm

A quiet gentle pitter-patter of the rain on the roof

A whooshing sound of the wind by the side

I will put in the box

The sweet smell of red roses growing in the garden

The gentle perfume of the lilies in the pond

The deep beautiful smelling herbs in the patch

I will put in the box

A sight of the glorious Taj Mahal on a moonlit night

A vision of a great waterfall coming down a cliff

A gentle stream with fish swimming in

I will take my box and store it away

Till I grow up and remember it all again

To open and enjoy all the great little things

That made me happy and gave my mind wings
