Jack's poetry

Jack recently brought home his "Big Write" book from last year at school. I felt so proud when I read it to see how creative our little man is. but when I came to one of his poems I was more than proud, I was impressed. So impressed that I asked Jack if he'd let me post this poem on my website. So here it is...


Listen!
by Jack Covill-Lowndes (aged 8)
Listen!
(What can you hear?)
The crashing waves
of a distant sea
A faraway bird
calling to me...

Listen!
(What can you hear?)
The slow slither of a
slimey snail.
The wind whirling through the
turbine sails...

Listen!
(what can you hear?)
