Wizards are called the wise and powerful.
Merlin is the most famous of all.
They protect with pride and honor.
They hold all of English history within their blood.
Merlin was foretold of Arthur before he was a teen,
Because he knew this had to be held in secrecy,
It was too dangerous for mortals to know.
Kings and Queen rule kingdoms,
With the guidance of Merlin.
Merlin sees and knows all.
One vision showed Merlin a golden sword,
Indestructible and winning many wars.
Only answers to one mortal person of this realm.
Zeus himself magically and powerfully formed it,
From each rib of Ares and Athena.
It stands beyond time, space, and the future.
Her name is Excalibur; she is honored, guarded and,
Kept by the Lady in the Lake.
Only those with true and pure hearts can wield Excalibur.
The Lady of the Lake calls upon the Amazons or Valkyrie to,
Help protect Excalibur when needed.
The true owners of Excalibur are the Queens of Olympus,
Yet only loaned to Arthur to save England from France.
They came from all over - Manchester, Derby
and. Connemara - icons, O'Toole, Bates and Finney,
who would believe the power of future stars,
although they spent their time fighting in bars.
RADA was a dream, a long way from country,
Reed and Marvin muscled in with Shaw and Connery,
Caine gave a sleepy-eyed look for mystery,
while Mitchum was instructed in English history.
Imagine King Henry sending 'Alfie' to the tower,
whilst Connery, Reed and Bates began to cower,
although the former pair wrestled in front of a fire,
If you didn't enjoy 'Women In Love,' you were a liar.
When Reed had his nose in a variety of *****,
O'Toole was enthralling us as Lawrence of Arabia.
We wear uniforms.
Pleated cloth, v-necks, submission with a smile. Our uniform
We ask for privileges that should be our right.
We are not prisoners, their is no barter system here. We have no rights.
Punishments do not fit the crime. We will always be caught.
Nature’s beauty suffocates as we are trapped inside our minds.
Don’t speak your mind.
Math, science, english, history
we go through the motions of class.
We go through the motions. Our minds want more than memorization.
Conversation. Is not allowed.
School does not take precedent.
Re-molding our minds matters more than math.
Sam made it into Rugby School from Bishop Wulstan,
To study A-Level English, History and Economics, days,
For entry into Loughborough University, a sportsman,
Where he took International Relations about our ways.
There he played American football amongst able-bodied,
And was spotted by British Athletics for the Paralympics,
So he competed in the 2012s in the T35 100m embodied,
But missed out on the final by only a few split seconds, 0.6.
Then in the 200 metres in 3 days he ran a PB of 28.75,
But he changed track to become a shot putter on field,
In the 2014 IPC European Championships he did strive,
Such that he’s in the Rio team and backs the CP wield.
Words are written down in a dictionary.
Each word makes a notable meaning.
But one word truly outshines...
Incomparable than any adjective word,
You can use this most beautiful verb.
Oh it can also be the most exquisite noun!
Do you know how does this word pronounce?
Trembles and thrills can be described
in a most figurative way of speech.
As you started to be poetic
to write this subject verb on your seat
My favorite word could be more intense,
luscious and sweet putting I-N-G…
You forget bunch rules in grammar
because you like to express what you feel.
Surely won’t misspell the word but
you can add climax in plot.
Then it could be recorded in books
A story to read in English Literature.
So wherever this word will take you
Whether English, History, Math or Music
Long live “LOVE” in our hearts
This Valentine’s poem is for us – beloved one!
The best part of the year has come,
The pools are now all open.
We only have one obstacle to clear,
That very last obstacle is rather clear.
That Obstacle is a six foot hurdle,
built on solid knowledge,
Math, Science, English, History and more!
But we can do it were IB!
We shall study them all;
Math, Science, English, and History
