Young Writers Society

Travel with me,
And we shall go,
To the magical world,
The world of books.

Let's move to Ashton Place,
Along with Miss Penelope.
We'll be Nannies just like her,
We'll care for the Incorrigibles.

Let's find Wonderland,
The land of nonsense!
And if we're lucky we might meet,
Alice and Mad Hatter!

Let's go study at Hogwarts!
We'll meet Harry!
We'll play Quidditch,
And help fight old Voldy!

Let's go through life,
See how tough it is.
For Greg Heffley,
The wimpy kid.

Now, we go to Awful End,
There's Eddie Dickens!
His parents, I heard,
Are yellow around the edges!

Three Ghosts we shall meet,
Along with mean old Scrooge.
Let's teach him to be nice,
To everyone he knows!

Ah! What beautiful paintings!
Created by Master Blenk.
Let's travel through the world of the Mirrorscape,
With Wren, Ludo and Mel!

Let's watch Arriman,
As he chooses his bride-to-be.
'Which Witch?', we wonder,
It's up to the wizard to decide.

Books are my escape,
From the real, noisy, world.
I flip the pages of one of them,
And enter a magical, adventurous world.

Hello there!

I love the subject of this poem. I'm not sure if you've read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl, but this poem brought to mind the song that the Oompa Loompas sing about Mike Teavee. Books are truly awesome and I like that you devoted a poem to them.

Let's go study at Hogwarts!
We'll meet Harry!
We'll play Quidditch,
And help fight old Voldy!

I have to say, this stanza (particularly the last line) made me smile. There's something comical about calling Voldemort 'Old Voldy'. The next time I watch Harry Potter, I'll think of this poem and smile.

I like this poem because it's not an expression of deep emotions but rather a poem meant to make people smile. It was refreshing to sit down and read this. Your capitalization is a little bit off (it's not necessary to capitalize the first word of every line) but that's just nitpicking.

Nice work!! Keep writing!!

totally true! books are a escape from troubles in life. the bad thing is that sometimes i don't know what is reality or fiction.

have fun with more writing

P.S love the harry potter series! J.K Rowling is my idol

Hey, HPR!

I love your fun poem here! It's obviously written just for kicks, and I love the little references you made to some of the books. I got most of your references too! You made some good correlations, and it's actually very nice to see you refer to some of the details in each story. It was all still fun, and I can tell you enjoyed writing it!

As a poem, there wasn't much rhythm. And I was actually surprised there wasn't any rhyme in here! I think you'd have a lot more fun with this if you played around with the rhyme and gave it a more metric feel. It makes the reading even more fun, which just adds on to the playful narration of the poem already. It's something to look into anyway!

Very cute poem though. <3

Keep writing!

Jabber, the One and Only!

Hermy! <3

This piece is so wonderful and rife with the beauty of books. The imagination of it all just takes me away into that wonderland of reading delight. There are so many people who might be put off with reading books right now and I'm sure they'll have a change of heart after reading this piece.

So great job, sis. I'm proud of you and your passion for books. Keep the ink flowing!
