Athletics Day/Sports Poem Writing

Athletics Day

Taking a glimpse at the others,

Getting ready slowly,

Stepping up to the line,

Burying her feet deep into the ground,

Dropping her hands like an anchor,

Motivating herself silently.

Breathing deeply,

Eyeing the others,

Running,

Gaining speed with every pace,

Dashing,

Leaping,

Slowing...

Swish!

Challenging the air,

Speeding,

Meeting,

Further, further.

Racing faster and faster,

Looking for third place,

Spying second place,

Sweating,

Gasping,

Sprinting,

Third place in her sight.

Hurrying,

Zooming,

Racing through the mud,

Tying third,

Urging herself to go faster…

Third place!

 HOCKEY POEM

Waiting patiently for the whistle

Powerfully pass backwards  

Making my tummy churn

Eyeing the ball

Running up the field

Waiting by the goal

Ready to tip

Extending my arms

Gripping

Positioning myself

Tensing

Getting in position to smack the ball up the field

Legs shaking

Parents roaring

Referees tensing

Teammates spring

GOAL!!!

Chloe

Sprinting towards the drop

Hastily bolting to the drop

Soaring through the air high

Landing softly onto the ground

Flexing softly

getting up again ready to start over

Springing

Panting smooth breath

Exhausted overworked legs

Moving forward

Being focused

Gasping

Functioning

Springing

THUMP!

Sprinting at high speed

Panting

Jumping

Higher and higher

Flipping towards the ground

Running to next jump

Side flipping to ground

Ditching

Rearing

Poised

Jump in sight!

Sliding

Ducking

Skimming through clouds of dust

Falling of the block

Finally did it

VICTORY!

Sleeping Poem

Slowly changing into my pyjamas.

quickly grabbing all of the corners.

To pull the sheet back.

Hopping into my cold clammy bed.

Wriggling in the comfy sheets.

Closing my eyes.

Trying to sleep.

Dreaming.

Waking up to the sunny morning.

Stretching.

Yawning.

Sitting up.

CRUNCH!    

Devouring my breakfast.

Gobbling up

Til it’s gone

hopping into my clothes

Slipping into my shoes

Not school again

Walking walking

Opening doors

Saying hi to everyone.

Bag away

Motocross Poem

Waiting intensely for the stand

Quickly starting in 2nd gear

Accelerating into 2nd place

Inhaling deeply as the finish line Appears

Gripping my hands on the handle bars

Soaring through the air

Clenching my hands

Intensely

Hard

Firmly

Soaring Through the air

Rising

Flying

dashing

Shooting through the air.

Oof!!! As I land on the ground.

Recovering

Accelerating

Roaring past second place

Skidding into first

Motorbikes revving

I won!!

Shotput Poem

Walking slowly towards the shot put circle

Firmly Gripping the heavy ball

Clutching it up to my ear

Raising my elbow to throw

Leaning my weight to my right foot

concentrating my weight to my left foot

Rocking slowly,

Aiming far,

Holding,

Resting the shot at my shoulder,

Pushing,

Tilting,

Exploding,

Ahh!

Thrusting my arm with all my might

Launching,

Flying,

Further and further

Leaving my fingers,

Sailing through the air,

Thudding to the ground,

Rolling,

Turning,

Coming to a halt,

Sweating,

Anticipating,

Waiting for my mark,

I’m qualified!!

Rock Climbing Poem

Staring heavily at the wall

Slowly attaching the harness

Stepping up to the wall

Placing my hands onto the grips

Grinding my feet onto the pegs

Breathing deeply

Hands sweating

Muscles moving

Positioning hands in order

Gripping

Tensing

Moving

‘BEEP!’

Soaring through the air

Spinning

Gliding

Going further down

Racing down

Pledging fast

Nearly at the bottom

Panting

Sweating

Floor in sight

Sliding

Skimming

Touching the ground

Sweat streaming across my face

Parents clapping

‘Rock Climbing’

SADDLE HUNTER || Angela Pivac || 2017

---

Waiting quietly ring side,

Slowly entering the ring.

Glancing slightly at my competition,

Gripping the leather reins.

Pony on the bit.

Squeezing with legs,

Picking up the trott.

Excelling ponies paces,

Accelerating

Sweating

Panting.

Increasing the Trott,

Extending down the long side.

Riding forward into Canter.

Sweating under jacket.

Puffing

Gasping

Accelerating.

Collecting Paces.

Inhaling.

Pushing into Gallop.

Hooves tearing up Grass.

Downwards transition.

Halt, Salute.

Parkour

Glaring smoothly at the course,

Slowly stepping back while getting ready.

Sprinting towards the course,

Leaping like a frog onto a small poll,

Keeping on jump onto bigger polls.

Slamming hard against a wall while gripping on,

Smoothly ‍‍‍‍climbing up the wall.

Inhaling deeply,

Dreaming whats next,

Sprinting forward,

Puffing,

Jumping…

SLAM!

Rolling on the floor,

Rising,

Vaulting,

Closer and closer.

Scurrying towards the warped wall,

Leaning back like in limbo,

All speed and might,

Gripping,

Pulling,

Pushing,

Top is near!

Diving,

Rolling,

Flipping through the air,

Closer and closer to finish,

Arms up while running to finish,

39 seconds!

Mandarin Lesson Dumplings

Dumplings

Divine/delicious taste

Under and over when you wrap

Look’s amazing

So good                                                        By Eva Josephs

Dumplings

I am writing an procedure for a recipe of dumplings because it's the easiest way to show someone how to do something

What you need:dumpling wrapping, dumpling filling,electric frying pan,water, oil.

1.Get the wrapping and dip your finger in the water then dab your wet finger on the outside of the wrapping

2. Take the dumpling filling and and put in the bit where there's no water/the middle.

3.After that fold your dumpling in half and squeeze the wet edges firmly make sure that you leave no gaps if there's a gap it will ruin it so always double check.

4.Once you've folded it and made sure there's no gaps put them down and turn on the electric frying pan

5.Pour some oil in the pan

6. Place the dumplings you have made in the pan and wait till you hear sizzling

7.Start timing for 10 minutes and put the lid on

8.Once it's been 10 minutes take the dumplings out and enjoy .

Dumplings - Moment in time

Pork Fumes arose from the deep black frying pan creating a Dumpling scent across the whole room.   The frying pan bubbles sizzled like a summer sunburn.   We carefully placed the tanned dumplings in a plate.  We carried our bowls of  dumplings like the queen’s crown and planted the bowl on the table.  We slowly drizzled the brown syrupy liquid over the steaming dumplings.  We grabbed our bowls of goodness, and devoured.
