Poetry competition 2007 – My Marble World, by Callum Rodford

Runner-up (under 11 years category)

I see a violet leaf,
I see the sweet blue sea,
I see a man with a gun,
Shooting a great hairy dusty bear.

I see an eye staring at me,
He was daring to blink,
I see a clausal moon blown up,
I see Mount Everest shining like a beautiful snowy sun,
And everybody wants my marble!
