My Experience

Hello!

I just wrote this to explain to you my experience in a college competition.

The poetry competition.

As you will probably know one of Tudor Grange's latest competitions is the light - themed poetry one. I decided to enter as I thought I could have a chance.

I ended up being second and even though I didn't win, I was very proud of myself.

Performing to all the college leaders AND Mrs. Roach was an unbelievable and daunting experience; but I got through it. 

The idea of my poem came to me in SAS. I wrote a few ideas down on a piece of paper and typed it up later on in the day.

I would just like to say thank you for giving me the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and getting my poem shortlisted!

My poem:

The Soul of the Night 

Blinded. Blinded by the light that came before me.  I lay 

motionless, placid, tranquil but not tranquil.  My hands felt 

brittle, brittle were my hands. 

 The bruises were deficient shades of grey and yellow, cowering 

over me like the beast that created them.  Like painting a 

picture, only not quite so creative. 

In the blink of an eye, all I could make out was the faint 

outline of an iridescent soul above.  My only friend, at this 

point. 

Their thrilling thunders and sparks that gorged my eyeballs 

were standing lonesome like the balmy tears attempting to 

race down my blundering cheeks. 

Flickering, the keyhole to my soul tripped to a gloomed black. 

Then, all the passion had disappeared.

Thank you!
