Risha Ahmed (12 yrs) Poems

Today has been my worst day
It has driven me mad
It began in the morning, when
I was accidentally hit by my dad
...

Chocolate chocolate
Ah' what a delight
You know you want it, right?
Go on, have a bite!
...

My mom would scream and run away
My plants would wither and die
My sister would think she is having a nightmare
My cousin would wish she knew how to fly
...

I had an ice cream
A very sweet one
I looked like a polluted stream
After the ice cream was done
...

If you think you are very fat
So fat that you can be rolled
Then let go of that popcorn
And the chip’s pack that you hold
...

Life is so beautiful
With butterflies and birds all around
Life is so wonderful
With flowers and trees on the ground
...

There the kites come
Head grasped in the children’s hands
Looking for wind
While their tails get tickled by sand
...

A stupid song plays inside my head
When I try to write a poem
It pushes back all the thoughts and lines
It clutters up my mind with foam
...

Child: Oh mother! Look, all the flowers on
This plant are flying away
Mother: No! You are wrong my child
These are not flowers, they are butterflies.
...

On the day for the treasure
You went to recieve the prize
You held it with pleasure
Without minding the size
...
