Opposite Poems

We wrote these fun "Opposite Poems" 

which speak for themselves.

 Genevieve  

                           A rough day, a smooth night

                             A chilly wind, a warm fire

                              Always sad, never happy

                                  All is lost, no hope

                           The clever dog, a stupid cat

                     Silent as the night, noisy as the day

                       Staying at home, going far away

                       Going on tours, staying at home

                        Going bowling, not being lazy

                            Now excited, not gloomy

                         Getting tired, away from fresh

                            Not tidy, but a huge mess

                  The night has started, the day has ended

 

Riana

Wild as a lion, calm as a cat.

Lazy dog, playful puppy.

Perky kangaroo, sleepy wallaby.

Small as a snail, tall as a giraffe.

Young horse, old horse.

Happy dog, sad cat.

Free as a bird, trapped as a mouse.

Strong rhino, weak kitten.

Sunny day, dark night.

Light as feather, heavy as an elephant.

Quiet as the sky, loud like a dolphin.

Smart wolf, silly tiger.

Benzo

Loud dog barking, quiet cat sleeping

Strong man lifting wood, weak girl being sick

Sunny day for a walk, cold night watching TV

Tasty food out of restaurant, disgusting drinks 

in the pub

Fast plane in the air, slow boy on the beach

Poor family working hard, rich man doing nothing

Hot coffee boiling, cold water freezing

Dirty clothes being cleaned, clean food

being eaten

Working computer in Technology, broken house

being repaired

Hard work at school, less answers

to easy questions

Tall mountains in the forest, small hills in the village

Interesting news on TV, boring games

on the computer

Heavy animals in the farm, light feather in the classroom.

 

Molly

Brown like a tree, green like a leaf

Tall and strong man, small and skinny woman

Handsome prince, ugly frog

Hot chocolate , cold smoothie

Polite princess, rude old man

Remember memories, forget pasts

Bright as daylight, dark nights

Dirty Dishes, clean floor

Yummy chippys, old biscuits

Awesome day, tiring mind

Flowers are pretty, slugs aren't

Amazing soap opera, Late night

Heavy stone, light worm

Beer is good, wine is disgusting

Bananas are slimy, apples are juicy

Prince charming, Princess grumpy

Passionate about modelling, dislike takeaways

X factor exciting, Dorisbumpuss book  boring

Unhealthy sweet pie, healthy fruit and veges.

 

Aaron

Ancient pyramids, modern technology

Quiet room, loud outside

Freezing meat, melting cheese

Black cat, white paper

Strong tree, weak bush

Sit down, stand up

Colourful rainbow, bland shadows

Handsome prince, ugly witch

Dangerous gun, safe shelter

Dark knight, light light

Stealthy assassin, noisy rambo

Long cords, short stool

False hackers, legit gamers

Multitasking programer, focused karate master

Awesome world, poopy job

Round donut, stiff tree

Addicted smokers, moderate drinkers

Liquid lava, air oxygen

Paper wins, rock losses

Four limbs, two ears.

 

Mother's Day

We wrote these fantastic poems dedicated to our wonderful and beloved mothers.

Iuvale

Mum, I love you very much

More than anything

I love you ever since

You put on that wedding ring

I hated how you put the tapes around the house.

I would run away, like a little mouse.

I love how you still love me.

Even when I ripped your clothes.

And also while you sleep I used to pinch your  nose.

But thank you, mum

for loving me no matter what I do.

But I am now the great person I am.

All because of you.

Kiana

Mother, our most cherished loved one

Giving unlimited and loving care.

Your love is unconditional and support never dies.

You give food for us to eat and water for to drink.

No matter what happens  

You are always there to help.

Your smiles can brighten up any moment.

Your hugs put joy in all our days.

Mum's love will stay with us, forever.....

The values you've taught me,

The care you've given

The wonderful love you've shown,

You've enriched my life

In more ways I can’t count.

Happy Mother's Day, Mum! ^_^

Christopher

You gave me the most fun I want to have

You inspire me to do my best

You are the best Mum I could ever have

You are my Mum.

You went through a lot of pain

To bring me into this world that we live in

I thank you for all the things

You have done for me in my life.

You help me when I am sad

You help me with my homework

You help me choose the right decision

You work so hard for us to have fun together

You let me get a dog after the earthquake

to make me happy

You gave me an Xbox, the new one

Thank you, Mum. Happy Mother’s Day.

Kaleb

Hunter and I love you very much.

You help us when we're stuck with something.

You make us food and drinks.

You put me in a good school.

You buy us clothes and other cool things.

You put me in sports clubs that I like.

You look after us when we're sick.

You take us to our school.

You teach us many different things.

You love us a lot and care for us.

But what we love most about you 

is that you are our Mum.

Molly

My mum is the only one I can really understand. 

I can basically tell her anything. 

Mum had a terrible life growing up.

Mum has been an inspiration 

All she’s ever wanted for me is to be what she never was.

Whenever she falls she gets right back up and that is amazing. We have a very complicated family and mum is always the one fixing it.

Mum raised me to be a mature young woman and she has got what she wanted.

Mum is kind, caring and supportive of me and my sister. 

I love her so much I couldn't ask for a better mother. 

Thank you for being the best mum.

Happy Mother’s Day, Mum! 

Vishay

Mothers are caring,

They make food to fill our tummies,

They are the most wonderful people in the world.

Mum, you buy me games,

and you got a console from me,

You are nice when you take me to a restaurant.

You paid for my camps and sports.

Your are nice,

Your are careful,

Your are loving,

Your are funny.

You are always there for me when I get hurt.

You bought me a bike for Christmas and when someone came and stole it you bought me another one.

You broke the fights with my sister

when we were little

You are the best Mum anyone can have. 

Genevieve

Mothers are lovely,

Mothers are sweet,

Mothers give us good things to eat.

Mothers are bright,

Mothers are stern,

Mothers give us the opportunity to learn.

You are funny,

You are great,

I hope you’ll be happy on this important date.

You are happy,

You are special,

You are the most helpful.

Benzo

My mum is always kind to me

She helps me all through my life

She cooks my food

She pays for my school

She give me clothes and shelter

She always encourages me 

no matter what I do.

 Thank you, Mum

For all the things you do

You love me and take care of me

You give your hugs and kisses

Thank you for all you have done for me.

Mum you are the best

Without you, I wouldn't be here today

Thank you mum for everything

you have done

Happy Mother’s Day.

 Lexi

My mum is the person that helps me when I get down

My mum is the person that makes me go and change when in winter I walk out of the house in shorts and a t-shirt

My mum is the person that gives me hugs when I get hurt

My mum is the person that tells me what to do when I think I know how to cook

My mum is the person that puts a smile on my face when I go to school and when I come home

My mum is the person that gave me that best siblings I could ask for

My mum is the person that teaches me new ways to do my hair

My mum is the person that tells me to get rid of all the clothes that I don't need even when I don't want to

My mum is the person that I will always look up to

My mum is the person that made me who I am today

My mum is the person that I will never take for granted

My mum is the person that I love.

Owen

Mothers are cool, mothers are special and they’ll always be there for you when you’re in need. Mothers they think you’re special.

Mum you have always been there when I fell over 

or ran into something or grazed my knee. 

My mum you always forgive me 

when I do something bad.

You let me have the freedom I want to, 

you remind me to do my chores, 

you remind me to get out of bed in the morning.

You are a great mother Mum. 

In my opinion you're the best in the world. 

You put me in this world, 

you went through suffering to do so 

and that's why I think you're an awesome mum.

Mabel

Who cares for me and guides me?

I can feel your love and gentleness

As you walk through life with me.

You do great things for me every day

You whisper in my ear

You have a special place for me in your heart

When I'm filled with fear.

When I'm sad you hug me and try to make me smile

When  I'm happy you laugh with me and share the fun

You respect me and love me.

My mum is the best and always loves me

And she is so proud of me

She has been with me forever

She has watched me grow.

She has taught me so much

And I'm the lucky one who gets

to call her...Mum.

 Amby

When my mum was little she always told the truth.

My mum looks after me even though she is mad at me

My mum will try to make the best Christmas for us even though she had no money

She will buy me things if I don't even ask her to do it

She sent me money to pay for my school fees

She is always proud of me even though I lose in a game

She hugs me when I'm really scared

She teaches me how to do Maths.

Happy Mother’s Day, Mum!

Chiara

You gave me the most beautiful life ever.

You make me laugh when I'm sad.

You come to talk to me when I'm alone.

You and I fight a lot but we forgive.

You let me have sleepovers when I'm grounded.

You inspire me to do my best.

You teach me how to be nice to Eliana.

Even if Eliana and I fight 

you treat us with kindness.

You do everything for me.

You understand what's like 

having a bigger, annoying sister.

Your always fun to be around.

You except the choices I make.

You cheer me on when I have races, 

and I appreciate it so much.

You let me have a lot of chances 

when I lie to you.

You have never hurt me.

You make my life better.

You are the best in the world mum.

Aaron

My Mum helps me whenever I’m in trouble

She always  cooks food whenever I’m hungry

She drives me to school when I’m late

She also reminds me to do my homework.

Sometimes we argue here and there 

but she always loves me.

Once I broke my ankle and she cared for me.

I also went to hospital, I don’t remember 

why I went there, but she cared.

I always love you, Mum even when we argue

You’re one year older than Dad

You give out hugs and kisses to my brother and I

You teach me how to cook

You also tell me what clothes for me to wear

For me, Mum is the best.

Thank you, Mum.

Nicholas

My Mum gave me the best life

That any mother could do

She raised me to who I am.

My Mum cooks for me but not microwave food

I have the best Mum in the world.

My Mum helps me with my homework

She looks after me

She lets me go out with my friends.

Mum teaches me everyday and she will for the rest of my life.

She wants me to do good in life

She lets me go to the beach

She lets me play with my Xbox and PS4

She pays the rent in our house.

Mum is the best mother I could have.

Nikita

Mum you are amazing, so sweet as sweet as an apple pie

You have always been supportive of my dreams, I could fly!

You've been super helpful with my awful dyslexia which I hate

You go fishing with me with the absolutely perfect bait.

I love everything you've done for me in my whole entire life

Even when I do things that contain loads and loads of grief.

I always make sure your Mother's Day is absolutely perfect

You always thank me for trying to give you loads of respect.

You transferred me to a better and expensive school for a reason

Your favourite time of the year is your hibernating season.

I try my hardest to help you relax but for me that's a hard task

So I go ahead to go and do one thing I'm good at, always to ask.

I ask for your happiness but you just smile gently at me

There's one thing you always say to me nothing is free.

I lean on your shoulder but then you have to cook dinner

Mum you always wish for just be a lottery winner.
