Poetry

I will put into the box

A book that imagines me of flying

That reminds me about sun and moon looking at me

The smooth feeling of the cover of the book.

I will put into the box

A poppy that honors the Anzac soldiers.

The feeling of happiness when I see it.

With the most beautiful lady wearing a poppy.

I will put into the box

the New Zealand flag to remember my home.

My country’s flag held up.

My box is fashioned from time to time with happiness and delightfulness. It has a special lock on the lid and rare gold in the corners.

Its hinges are secured so that no memories escape

I shall add more memories in my box as I get older and older.

This poetry that we got set and what we had to do, we had to think of a poem about three subjects. We had to say what we were going to put in our box and I did a book, A Anzac Poppy and the New Zealand flag.
