Night

We worked together to recall facts about night. Then we had to choose and use the best words in the best places to create a poem.

Owls silently swooping in the night sky,

Smoothly drifting down to grab their prey.

Black and white badgers snuffling in the undergrowth.

Animals quiver and quake as the predator approaches.

Robbers slinking about, up to mischief.

Security guards shining torches and calling in their crackly walky-talkies.

Train drivers controlling the engines. Eating up the dark miles.

Sparkly fireworks sizzling in the inky pitch sky.

Luminous lights leading us to safety.

Hi-vis jackets glimpsed beyond the distant horizon.

Starry constellations guiding you back home.
