Blitz
My dad shouting, “Don’t panic!”
My brother crying
Screaming at people
It is a mess maker?
It is a pet murderer?
It is a bone breaker?
Mum tells us to think of nice things:-
The sound of my cat purring like a tractor
The sound of my dog barking at the torch light
The sound of the trees rustling in the breeze
What’s that sound?
It’s not a car screeching
It’s not a herd of elephants
It’s not a band playing
IT’S A BOMB:(

The Blitz
What is that noise?
It’s not people giggling,
It’s not a bee buzzing
It’s definitely not a baby guzzling milk -
It’s a BOMB!
Mum said, “Run to the shelter!”
We all took three things
My heart is in my throat
I cry madly; I’m really upset
It’s a death singer -
A killing machine -
A peace butcherer -
It’s a BOMB!
My house has just blow up -
Mum is worrying
Her cuddles keep me cosy and warm
My lizard is in his tank, he’s running around madly
He can hear everything.
He’s afraid.
I’m afraid, mum’s afraid
In this shelter we wait, wait and wait
“When will this end?” I wonder frantically
