2, FLYING SOUTH When the north wind starts to blow, And when leaves start to fall, That ' s the sign for birdies all To start flying souths Wild ducks J robins, sparrows, and more, Are having only one thought. Fly south and not be caught By freezing winter storms. So they ' re all flying south. When you hear the wild call Of geese flying majestioally , High above the highest tree That is the last of summer you will see, For all are flying south, Ian Slayter - Age 11 A WAVE As I sat and watched the tide one day, I wondered what the waves did say As they seemed to rollj and run, and play. Are they free , or are they tied To Mother Ocean ' s guarding side, Who calls them back to sleep in the deep. And covers them with calmness far and wide? Oh wave, a-rolling all day long, Ohj, wave that sings a happy song, Are you strong and are you free, Or Just another boy like me? Grant Brennan - Age 12.5 THE BATTLEFIELD The last of the wounded Had breathed his last breath, - The battlefield was covered With signs of death. The night was coming. Many were dead , Souls winged to heaven From that place of dread. Bill Black - Age 10.11
