I’m amazed how far we’ve come
By Rylan (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)I’m amazed how far we’ve come
even when we’ve had our ups and downs
from the soothing sound
It’s happy when we’re not alone -
Rivers pushed past rocks into open air
By Evie (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)Rivers pushed past rocks into open air
gliding past the wind
down, down it arched turning
into gentle mist -

By Tyler (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)Inspired
Weird patterns scattered around the room
mixed with pink and blue.

Somehow confused

Something we don’t know about
Something we want to know about
But we just don’t know what that -
The peaceful music ringing in my ears
By Zoe (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)The peaceful music ringing in my ears
the calm water ripples throughout the river
darkness in the room
peaceful and calm.

By Edward (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)I’m stuck inside this cell of chaotic geometry
everything is out of shape, everything is shapes
bright, illuminated colours, I see out, but nobody can see in.

I’m sitting here trying to think
By Holly (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)I’m sitting here trying to think
the kookaburras laughing
in the background
no ideas coming to mind -
I sit on the perfect hill filled with sunshine
By Charlie (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)I sit on the perfect hill filled with sunshine
as gentle wind blows my hair
yellow flowers are gathered in bunches around me
I feel safe, warmed by the gentle greeting of mother nature -
The blue moon rose slowly up over the horizon
By Cameron (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)The blue moon rose slowly up over the horizon
giving off a magical glow
I was sitting in the dark alone and isolated
the glow gave me a new energy -
As I look from the hill
By Jeremy (Year 7, Bomaderry High School)As I look from the hill
I see endless trees
endless litres of water in the river
I see an endless scene
