Young Writers Write: The Rain

I was  happy hearing my young writers share their experiences of 'The Rain'. It was so interesting to know that these young minds are busy observing and seeking for ways  to express their thoughts and imagination. You never know how deep they can think, until you listen to them.  Enjoy reading their poems. 

THE WINDY NIGHT

A poem by Ugonnaya Daniel Iheme, 7 years old

Calvary Garden Nursery and Primary School, Lagos, Nigeria

In the darkest night

There came a stormy wind

Then what followed 

Was the rain beating

Against the bushes

And the roaring thunder

I also saw lights in the sky come and go

The streets were flooded

It all began with just a wind

A WINDY DAY

A poem by Zoe Nnaji, 7 years old

New Land Elementary School, Lagos, Nigeria

I went outside to play

But it was too windy

I went back inside to take a short nap

I woke up and it started drizzling

I thought the rain was about to stop

But it started raining heavily

I was so surprised

The wind brought the rain

I had to go back to sleep

A SCARY NIGHT

A poem by Olivia Nnaji, 6 years old

New Land Elementary School, Lagos, Nigeria

I was at home when it started to rain

The rain didn't scare me until the thunder came

The thunder and lightening scared me so badly

I quickly ran and hid under the bed

It didn't take long and the rain stopped

I came out from under the bed so happy

A COLD NIGHT

A poem by Victor Stanley, 6 years old

Vine International School Iwofe, Port Harcourt, Nigeria

It was a cold night

I could feel the chills all over my body

I hurriedly closed the windows

I reached out for my coat

As I lay on my bed

To enjoy the night sleep

I covered myself

With my blanket to keep warm.

A RAINY DAY

A poem by Adegboro Elnathan Ohunoluwa, 6 years

Vine International School, Port Harcourt

It was raining,

I needed an umbrella

A pair of boots

And a rain coat.

To go home

I got an umbrella,

A rain coat and a pair of boots.

The street was flooded

But I had to get home

It was such a wet day

A CLOUDY DAY

A poem by Gemma Chimenum Worokwo, 7 years

Bloombreed Montessori School, Port Harcourt, Nigeria

It was a cloudy day

No one could see

Because the sky was cloudy and dark

I thought it was night again

But I noticed that it wanted to rain

It didn’t take a long time

The rain started to drop

It was so heavy

That I went back to sleep.
