Sitting calmly in place

The sky is clear blue

Then it hits you,

Like a pie in your face

You get moved out of your place

You suddenly think how you’re goiing to pull through,

How can you live with either none or broken shoes

Suddenly it’s a race to find another place.

Children start to wonder what is happening,

You say don’t worry all we need is some cash

Then your phone starts to ring,

But then dies in a flash

Your whole family runing

To get you back on your feet and back to where you were.

Dear Nicky Morgan,

I strongly believe that we should continue studying poetry in school because, it is good for students to learn why and how does music fit into poetry; how rap music is a form of poetry. Personally I was surprised to find out how just the lyrics to songs and the rhythm to the beat was exactly like poetry.

Your reflections are interesting to read, particularly on rhythm. maybe you could say more about this, as this is currently a 450 words short of the goal!
