Broughton High School Poems

Read the poems written by students of Broughton High School about their heritage.

My Mum by Tabarak Boab

I have grown inbetween her arms, I am protected by her warmth and I hide behind her strength. She is all my life, I love her so much. If I get sick she comes to the hospital. If I am hungry we will go to the restaurant, if I am tired she will help me sleep. There is no-one like her in all my life. I love you very much, Happy Mothers Day!

 

Love by Rama Hane

Love is the dove from above that makes us, us.

Love is the personal treasure that makes our measure.

Love is the family and friends that treat us fair.

Love is the celebrating of engagement and marriage.

 

Love by Ellie Logan

Love is what you feel at night,

When no matter what you do you can’t sleep.

Love is something that as strength and might.

It is when you’re with them and you notice little things.

Like a glint in their eyes or dimples in their cheeks.

It makes you feel like you have wings.

It’s when they break your heart.

When you loved them the most,

Is when things fall apart.

Your head starts spinning,

The ground caves in,

Just when in life you were winning,

Yet one day out of the corner of your eye,

You see someone hurt,

Someone starting to cry,

You lend a hand and say something with a smile.

‘Would you be my wings, even just for a while?’

Then they look at you, dry their eyes,

Smile, take your hand,

Say, I do and stay for the rest of their days,

Love lets you find your wings,

It gets you to notice the little things,

It can take two broken hearts,

Two people who were once torn apart,

To meet and find their wings

Now fly and be their everything.

 

Trust by Khozi Abdullah

Try and believe that today will be another tomorrow and redeem your confidence,

To unite strong and strange things such as trust because trust is powerful.

Find your love, united with love,

To be committed to a friendship

 

Hugs by Khozi Abdullah

Hugs make people feel loved and so does a smile,

It is has the potential to change someones life

Possibility to make someone laugh,

I like seeing my nephew being cute

Nuggets I share with friends,

At the end of the day I like watching tv with my sisters

Shopping with mum makes me happy

Smiling shows happiness.

 

Culture by Hiba and Amena

 

We are the world,

We shouldn’t take the little things for granted,

We are the people,

We are the reason,

We should not ever complain,

We should keep a happy face with the little that we have

Tomorrow is another day!

Then beg for forgiveness,

Take a look in the mirror and see yourself,

We are only human in this world.

Stop judging me.

  

Hope and Courage by Sarah Blue

It is important to have hope in life so as to motivate you and keep you feeling happy. It is also important to choose your dreams. Courage is like a shadow which follows you and trails you wherever you go, you just need to look to find it.
