  1. The caged bird and the free bird

    The caged bird struggles,
    Singing for help,
    Stuck in the bars,
    His wings are clipped,
    And his feet are tied,
    As he sings and cries.

    The free bird leaps,
    And the free bird flies,
    Floats through the downstream,
    Till the current ends,
    He flies through the trees,
    Diving down for a fat worm.

    1. Life for me ain’t been no nice garden.
      Its had rotten carrots in it,
      And apples,
      And cabbarge,
      And no leaves on the trees.

      But I still walk,
      Through it.
      And life for me ain’t been no nice garden

  2. The Russian Doll
    All you see is my outside me: my joyful smile,
    The perfect shell,
    The brown eyes.

    But inside me, there is another me,
    Bored till night,
    The tired and boring one,
    An annoyed type of me.

    And inside me, there’s another me,
    Full of cheek,
    The quick, slick tongue who shouts jokes,
    A joker in the class.

    And inside me, there’s another me,
    Who’s smaller and scared,
    The one who dashes at the smallest fright,
    I wouldn’t say boo to a frightened me.

    And inside me, there’s another me,
    All cross and bothered,
    The stamping feet that destroys a mountain.

    And inside me, there’s another me,
    Forever jealous,
    Who never gets enough,
    One glance and I want it.

    And deepest down,
    Covered in shell,
    Worried to the end,
    Dreams of ghosts,
    The worrying me.

  3. “Life is like fish and chips. You never know what fish you’ll get,”
    my mother said.

    She told me to work hard
    She said life isn’t always sweet.

    Vegetables and Carbohydrates
    I think we can sneak in a beet.

    She said not to turn back.
    “Walk in my shoes,” they’re on the shoe rack.

    The racism will stop
    I hope soon enough.
    I do not really know?
    Juts before things get very rough.

    “Life is like fish and chips. You never know what fish you’ll get,”
    my mother said.

    She grew tired
    Walked up the stairs
    took her slippers off
    and lay on the bed.

    I yelled “Good night..”
    Walked to my room
    Remembering what my mother said,
    Then started dreaming about when it was June.

  4. Bitter Sweet Lemon

    Life is like a bitter sweet lemon,
    You won’t be able to see how your life turns out.

    Packed up in one,
    All miserable and lonely,
    No sweet sugar to add,
    For the sweet taste life has to have.

    Not sweet but sour,
    Wanting to live the new,
    There’s no light to follow,
    No light to lead,
    Darkness blackens,
    No way to see.

    Need some sugar on top,
    For the light to lead.

    Life is like a bitter sweet lemon,
    You’ll soon find out how your life will turn out.

  5. Free Bird

    A free bird leaps
    on the edge of the wind
    and dares anyone to claim
    the sky, the orange sun
    glows in the beautiful
    sky rapidly racing up
    through the breeze of
    the soft wind

    Caged Bird

    The caged bird sings
    with a fearful trill
    and dreams of thrill
    everyday it see’s
    beautiful birds
    flying through the
    breeze and wishes
    it was me.

  6. Caged bird.

    The caged bird shouted and screamed
    Every day its voice beamed,
    Its feet tied to a rope
    The bird wished for hope,
    The bird wanted to run
    But one day doom will come,
    He knows he’s done
    He looked at others
    Begging to come,
    But they shook their heads
    Knowing he was dead.

    Free bird.

    The free bird flew
    With nothing to do,
    It flew with friends
    With no end,
    It wants to live forever
    That’s what it intends
    It helps others
    It always lends,
    It could even help
    A stuck kite
    Because he knows it’s right.

  7. Caged bird.

    The cage bird
    screeched for help,
    every night it yelped,
    You could hear it’s voice left to right,
    you could still hear it during the night,
    Every day it wished to be free
    just so it could finally see.

    Free bird.

    The free bird flew in the air
    it had no worries,
    it didn’t care,
    it flew across rabbits and bears
    it didn’t fear anything that’s there,
    so it started to sing.

    Caged bird needs hope
    it believes one day
    it too
    will be
    free.

  8. Caged and free bird

    The caged bird is looking for hope
    but the caged bird can’t cope
    its feet are tied
    its wings are clipped

    The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown
    but longed for still
    for the caged bird sings for freedom

    The free bird leaps for he is thankful
    the free bird floats down the stream
    he dips his wings in the orange sun’s rays
    but all he wants is to play all day

    The caged bird is flapping its wings
    the caged bird starts to sing
    he looks for hope where ever he goes.

  9. Russian Doll

    All you see is outside me: my cute smile,
    The rosy-red shell, the brown eyes.
    A never ever bored type of me

    But inside there’s another me bored till maths
    The non-food waster, the big dreamer
    Never bothered me

    And inside there’s another me
    A shy me, an easily upset me
    A boo-hoo type of me

    And inside there’s another me
    An always injured me

    And inside there’s another me, all cross and mad
    Always grumpy me

    A forever alone me
    All I need is friends

    And this is the last me
    An always scared me
    A runaway type of me.

  10. Life is a bubble
    You need a pin to get out
    But you have to work hard to find the pin
    Life is like a lottery ticket
    You don’t know what you’re gonna get
    Sometimes life is good
    But sometimes it is harsh on you and bitter
    So don’t give up my boy
    If you give up you’re gonna be like me
    Living with no carpet is very cold
    So try your best
    And reach the star with your hands.

  11. RUSSIAN DOLL

    All you see is outside me: my perfect smile
    the convincing shell, the shining eyes.
    A always-friendly-and-polite type me

    But inside there’s another me, bored till home.
    The lazy dreamer, sleeping on the couch
    A nothing-really-matters-sort of me.

    And inside there’s another me,full of fun.
    The cheeky joker.
    A funny-clown-joker-one-of me.

    And inside there’s another me who’s tiny, frightened.
    The worrying, shaking and shy
    A wouldn’t-shout-at-me

    And inside there’s another me all, annoyed and mad,
    The hard-headed, really cross.
    A go-away-me.

  12. Life is just like history
    you never know when it will stop
    it just goes on and on
    people call us names and we take it
    we sit in different places
    and they think they are the boss of us
    just because
    WE ARE BLACK.

    SO son don’t listen
    to what they say
    listen to what your heart tells you
    never give up on your dreams
    because I know
    you can do this.

  13. Life is like a new pair of shoes
    you never know when they’re gonna get dirty
    so listen here sunny boy

    remember to run as fast as you can
    make sure you don’t get your shoes dirty
    so listen here sunny boy
    make sure you work hard for something you want
    so listen to me
    make sure you you don’t stop running to the future

  14. life is like a box of sweets which has a taste of sugar.
    life is like a bug in my shoe crawling
    away
    but my feet are covering it.

    life is like time which goes on
    in different stages
    morning, noon and night
    Primary school,
    Go to work,
    Watch TV and see the grandkids
    in your life.

    life is like a swarm of bees
    they sting
    but the pain runs away
    and life will get better.

    Remember that.

  15. Russian doll

    All you see is the outside me
    My fake smile
    The happy shell
    The innocent eyes, the joyful me.

    But inside there is another me
    Bored till home-time
    The lonely nervous one of me.

    And inside there is another one of me Full of anger
    The stubborn sort of me
    The blameless me.

    Shy and lonely and sad me.

  17. Life is like a gift

    You never know what will come next…
    But you should never go for the wrong ones, they’ll betray you
    You’ll get bad stuff you may not want to have but have to have
    Some could be good and some could be bad
    Sometimes they’ll be good but you can’t keep them
    But don’t wish for everything.

    Because some things that seem great become bad
    While others look bad but surprise you with their
    charm and beauty

    You
    never know what your gonna get…

  18. ”Life is a Labyrinth,
    You never know when it ends,
    All those twist and turns,
    You don’t know how to make your mind up, Which way should you go?
    You don’t know what will hit you,
    And when it hits you, You still shouldn’t give up, Life is a Labyrinth, You never know when it ends, All these twists and turns, You don’t know how to make your mind up, Which way should you go? You don’t know what will hit you , You still shouldn’t give up, Life is a Labyrinth.”

  19. Life is like a zip wire

    Life is like a zip wire
    It goes so fast without you
    noticing

    Sometimes it’s broken and negative
    and it goes really slow
    maybe it’s slippery
    your nearly at the end and then you
    drop

    You have something soo good and then it ends
    You try soo hard and then you fail

    Life is like a zip wire
    you never know what it will be like
    Slow, fast, slippery or broken?
    The zip line is a struggle
    but keep believing

    Keep holding on to the bar and
    NEVER GIVE UP!

  24. The caged bird

    and stuck its suffering
    being stuck in the cage
    its sad,
    depressed deeply crying inside
    The caged bird still
    sings in hope it escapes
    one day wishing it could escape
    and just fly away
    and never come back
    the poor bird, yelps and cries to escape
    the horrible people,
    stealing birds,
    and eating them
    the poor bird screams.

  25. life is like a pinata, you never know what will come out
    My life wasn’t a walk in the park or a dream
    It had a lot of fixing the holes in the floors that blocked the way to freedom
    I never gave up so you shouldn’t either.

    Life is like a race,
    you can’t give up until you reach the finish line
    and eventually win

    what i’m trying to tell you is to never give up
    to never accept defeat and not try again,
    when there’s traffic stopping you from your goal
    if you try you can rise above.

  26. Cage Catastrophe

    One little birdie stays alone,
    As it longs for a place to call home,
    Its voice as soft,
    But its stuck in a loft,
    Its wings stuck in chains,
    Giving it so much pain,
    It still sings for hope,
    Will it ever escape back home.

    Rainbow Flight

    It flies with the colours,
    Of the sky,
    Its as free as a bird,
    It can be heard,
    From afar,
    The majestic wings,
    Flaps as it sings,
    The rainbow flies,
    Alongside the magical sky.

  27. Dream!

    Life is like a dream
    you can never
    control what happens.
    In a dream you
    don’t
    make the decisions
    nothing makes sense
    all the time

    then you
    wake up and you wait
    all day until
    night
    to escape
    to the deepest depths of your mind!

    You can do
    anything
    you put your mind to!
    So carry on dreaming
    it will get you far in the
    real world.

  28. Life is like a book

    Or a day where everything goes wrong

    Or get detention
    You might pass the GCSE
    Or fail
    Go to jail

    Have your parents divorce
    You might get sent to war
    Or get sent to secondary
    College
    And university

    You might get a new brother
    Or sister

    Choices

    Give yourself challenges
    For you brain to face.

    Is your life
    My soul.
    My life.
    Your life
    Is in my hands
    And that’s all I care about.

    The caged bird sings
    Through the bars of its cage
    Upset as the seasons change
    Outside
    But it can’t fly out
    So it sings for freedom

    The free bird flies joyfully
    Flapping
    Swooping
    Like a playground
    In the sky
    It wonders why
    The caged bird is locked inside.

  33. Life is like

    story
    or
    a good story

    or even

    in physics.

  35. Express your feelings

    All you see outside of me
    is
    a lovely joyful girl.
    who is ecstatic to learn.
    Listening enthusiastically
    to
    my mother and my father
    how my day was,
    showing my report card and seeing there reaction.
    But inside me is another me.

    The inside me is a bored me,
    lazy to do work
    and waiting for
    lunch.
    Eating slowly and depressingly
    waiting for
    play.
    Its still morning moaning for night.
    Looking
    at
    everyone smiling and playing
    together.
    But inside me is another me.

    Inside me is a stressed version of
    me.
    Tired of working depressingly.
    Crying inside me.
    I feel like a business women or a lawyer so much work.
    I feel like i don’t want to be alive.

  37. YOU’RE UNIQUE IN YOUR OWN WAY

    Life is like a ball of fire,
    sometimes your gonna get burned,
    don’t let no one put you down cause you’re black,
    you’re special in your own way,
    don’t let no one say other,
    don’t let no one judge you by your colour,
    it’s what’s inside that matters.

    Life’s like a video game
    You die but get reincarnated
    You live again
    You’re invincible,
    You’re ok
    Everyone’s special in their own way.

  38. Life is like..well, I’ll tell you…

    Life is like
    a new book . You
    never know when it’s going to
    END…
    unless , you look very
    carefully all around ,
    how many pages are
    there to be exact?

    Life is like
    a new pair of
    shoes! They are uncomfortable
    at first, yes , you can’t
    lie! But,day passes by
    and the night slowly
    passes by
    and you soon get to
    know how soft and
    comfortable they really are.
    You’ll get use to life.
    WAY
    Quicker than
    those pair of shoes…

    Life is like
    going and writing
    a story. Not thinking what to write.
    Doing it straight
    away and
    reading it out to the rest
    of the world
    meanwhile there’s
    some type
    of spark inside your
    heart!
    Then,
    you’ll see how
    BEAUTIFUL
    it really
    is. All of a sudden,
    the crowds cheering was
    as enchanting as
    all of the angel choirs in
    the whole , wide
    WORLD
    coming together and singing
    in peace and harmony ,
    as tinkling
    raindrops exploding onto
    the floor peacefully.
    They were flying those raindrops.

    Life is as sweet as candy

    Life is as sweet as Romeo and Juliet.
    They died in
    the end , but ,
    not tragically ,
    calmly….

    Life is like a heavenly surprise rising up HIGH!!.. Your never know what your going to get.

  39. Russian Doll

    All you see is outside me: my optimistic smile
    the hazel shell, the distressing eyes
    An I’m- magnificent type of me

    But inside there’s another me, bored till dusk
    the big, big loner, daytime humour
    An I’m- too- tired type of me

    And inside there’s another me, full of blush
    the hilarious class clown, with a red, squeaky nose
    A look- at- me type of me

    And inside there’s another me, all moody gloomy
    the raging devil, elephant steps
    A don’t-talk-to-me sort of me

    And deepest down, kept secretly
    A tiny doll, size of a skittle
    that girl that peers inside of me

    That’s me the Russian doll!

  49. The Bird’s Voice

    There is a caged bird singing with a beautiful
    Voice of melody
    Still nobody recognises
    The bird with no freedom
    What kind of people would do that?
    A free innocent bird
    Locked up
    While others have freedom
    Freedom!
    Freedom!
    Freedom!
    Let there be peace
    Peace!
    Peace!
    Peace!

    No one recognises
    The locked up bird
    Feet trapped
    Wings trapped
    Let there be
    Peace!

    The free bird flies with joy
    Joy!
    Joy!
    Joy!

    Having the best time of his life
    Life!
    Life!
    Life!

  50. Wings

    A free bird chirps
    In a high oak tree
    His voice is full
    Of might and glee

    A caged bird moans miserably
    His wings are clipped
    His feet are are tied
    And he endlessly longs
    For Freedom.

    The free bird leaps
    Full of joy
    Flying to meet the friends
    He chooses to meet.

    The caged bird cries
    Powerlessly
    Staring upward
    Constantly
    Hoping every minute
    That one day
    He will be free.

    The free bird plays
    With all his friends
    Laughing and chirping
    It never ends.

    The caged bird believes
    He can speak up to be free
    He has a spark
    Inside his heart
    Which speaks of
    Truth
    And truth has wings.

  51. SINGING UNKNOWN THINGS

    The caged bird with clipped wings
    And a collar on its foot
    Opens his throat
    And sings for freedom.

    Poor caged bird, feathers chopped off

    No freedom
    No worms
    To eat
    No love.

    All caged up,
    Singing unknown things
    Whilst
    The free bird spreads his wings.

    The free bird,
    Spreading his wings
    Whilst the caged bird, locked in a cage,
    Rages.

    The free bird
    Feeling sorry for the caged bird,
    All lonely.

    The free bird playing
    In the sky like it’s a playground
    Whilst the cage bird is never found.

  52. Life for me ain’t no gold sea.
    It has rocks at the bottom,
    Evan splinters,
    And dangerous creatures.

    But I’ve still been swimming,
    And sometimes going in the dark.
    You find it hard swimming,
    But I’ve still been trying to swim.

    Sometimes you go sometimes you stop,
    Sometimes you say yes sometimes you say no.
    Life for me ain’t no gold sea.

  53. Mother to Daughter

    Life is like a labyrinth,
    It has decisions to make,
    And twists and turns,
    There will be little light,
    Which might give you a fright.

    Don’t sit sobbing,
    Keep on going,
    Never stop,
    Reach to the top.
    I climbed to the moon,
    Reached for the stars,
    Even went to Mars,
    Life is like a labyrinth.

  54. Life has been an adventure,
    You go one place then another,
    Then back to where you are.

    There are paths waiting for you,
    Just don’t give up,
    And your dreams will come true.

    So don’t turn back,
    Or you will find life even more harder.

    But don’t look back,
    Or you will keep goin down.

    Life is like a punishment.
    Inside and out,
    And upside down.
    Life sometimes ain’t fair.

    It has no branches,
    No leaves,
    And especially no money for me.

    Life is like a maze too!
    You don’t know where to go.
    It has its ups and downs,
    Of course we go round and round.

    But we all know in the end,
    For i’se still going.
    I’se still climbing on but…
    Life for me ain’t been no money tree.

  57. Life is Hard.

    Life is like a maze,
    There are twists and turns,
    Sometimes dark and bright at night.
    But all the time I try to
    Reach the end.
    But it keeps going.
    There’s corners and edges.

    Life is like a maze.

  58. Life is like a piece of fire,
    You never know,
    You could survive.

    Life is like a peace of fire.

  59. Life ain’t no straight road,
    Car crashes and dead ends,
    Life ain’t so easy.
    Turns and dead ends,
    A lot of bumpy roads.
    Sometimes you stop.
    Life ain’t no straight road.

    Life is up or down,
    But I’m still going.
    You might be going the wrong way,
    You can crash,
    It ain’t nice.

    You cant be asking for directions all the time,
    You need to work on your own route,
    Keep going.
    Don t stop or you’ll never go on.
    Life ain’t no straight road.

    Playing huge holes into screaming,
    The six headed daggar came and ate six of my men,
    She plunks six men,
    Her teeth like swords ,
    Slash the sailors.
    They were all screaming my name .

    We saw a whoolpool i gave my men strong words
    We faced the whoolpool…

  63. SANDY BEACH

    Life is like a beach,
    It has smooth sand,
    Bumpy sand,
    There’s even more sand,
    Clumpy as well,
    There’s even holes in the sand,
    Life is not straight sand or up it has holes and dips,
    It has never been the wind,
    Will blow the sand
    And make it like normal sand,
    The sand will
    Blow,Blow away
    And then it will
    Become a rocky beach,
    And when they all
    Go, Everyone will
    Go to the fake beach.

  64. LIFE IS NOT EASY

    Well son I will tell you this,
    life is difficult,
    It’s no KFC,
    Rock hard like chicken.

    And places with no carpet
    On the floor–
    Bare.

    All the bad things that happened in the pass. Imagine
    They never happened.
    All my life I’ve been passing obstacles on,

    And turning corners

    And sometimes
    You have to go places where there has
    Never been no light.
    Don’t you let your self down now
    I’ve still going
    And life for me ain’t no crystal stair.

  65. Life isn’t easy

    It has twist and turns,
    Sometimes you could be happy or,
    You could be sad,
    You could blue or,
    You could be red.

    Sometimes in life there is:

    Corners,
    And edges,
    And dead ends,
    And crashes,
    And traffic,
    And fights,
    And broken cars,
    And pollution
    But I’m still climbing,
    Until I reach the top.

    Life isn’t easy

  66. Climb And Climb.

    Life for me is a mountain,
    You climb all day,
    No stop, no pause.

    Everyday be happy,
    Not one day be sad,
    At the night I go to sleep
    On the day I go to eat.

    If you’re crying,
    Don’t stop and keep on trying,
    The mountain is a new adventure like a picture.

    Life for me is a mountain.

  67. Life Is a Adventure

    Life for me ,
    Ain’t been no money tree,
    We had to work as slaves,
    For white people,
    And got nothing at all
    Sometimes we can get creative ,
    With art and paint,
    Trying new things,
    Is very fun for me,
    Twist and turn,
    WEE!
    Its like climbing a mountain,
    Life for me ain’t no money tree.

  68. What life means.

    Life is like a sea,
    It ends at the shore,
    It doesn’t go all the way,
    And it doesn’t add more.

    Life isn’t smooth,
    full of bumps,#Life isn’t straight,
    Full of lumps.

    But if you believe in hope,
    You can go far,
    You wont fall,
    You can shine like a star.

    Life can sometimes be good,
    But life can be sad,
    You can be happy,
    Or you can be mad.

    Life for me is so no rich,
    Life for me can be itch.

    Life for me isn’t easy,
    Life is so hard,
    And you can feel queasy.

    Life can say yes,
    But can say no,
    Sometimes you stop,
    Or sometimes you go.

    Life is like a sea,
    It ends at the shore,
    It doesn’t go all the way,
    And it doesn’t add more.

  69. SCYLLA THE DEVOURER.

    Scylla the atrocious, aggressive,
    Six-headed creature.
    The vibrant, yellow skin,
    The blazing red fiery face,
    And her grotesque, non-stop
    Spitting up at the innocent,beautiful,glowing
    Heavens.

    Scylla’s gesture is like an immense
    Wave pool.
    She is bulky and hazardous,
    Every minute.
    Every second.
    Water and fire,
    Is blasted up into the sky.

    That sea monster can
    Devour six people in one big gulp,
    Her impudent barbarity.
    Scylla is just an atrocious, aggressive six-headed creature.
    Hope that you don’t meet her!
