What is the Moon?
By Róisín
The moon is a glowing ball of silver in the ocean.
It is a big silver boat dancing on the water.
It is a silver coin that was dropped from up above.
It is a big silver eye staring down at earth.
It is a silver wheel that dropped off a bike from above.
What are the Stars?
By Lauren
The stars are a black sheet of paper
with holes poked through it
with a big torch behind it.
A black sheet with silver glitter patches all over.
Thousands of euros
thrown at the black sky
at eight o’clock.
4 million silver rings falling in a black hole
and when you look down
it’s all sparkling.
Candles outside when it’s pitch black.
Shining raindrops when it’s raining.
Snowflakes on black paper.
What are Clouds?
By Caélfind
Clouds are big balls of candyfloss
in a big blue candyfloss truck.
The clouds turn purple and pink
because of the food colourings in them.
And at night time
all the candyfloss is gone
and wind man has to get more.
Sometimes the clouds sneak away
and they float away
in Mr. Wind’s breeze,
Candyfloss swims in a pale blue swimming pool.
What is the Moon?
By Anu
The moon is a big white snowball
thrown high, high in the cold midnight sky.
It’s a silver star glistening all night.
The moon is a medal won in a race.
The moon is a ball with a pace.
The moon is a ball painted into the sky.
But to me it is just a light.
What is Earth?
By Robin
Earth is a bouncy ball stuck in a can of violet paint,
Earth is a marble dropped in oil,
Earth is a circle spinning in the sky,
Earth is a round float floating in space,
And it moves like a wheel on a bike.
Earth is a blue round cloud floating in space,
Earth is a plate floating in space,
Earth is a painting in the sky,
Earth is a bottle cap in a puddle,
And Earth is a flower.
What is the Moon?
By Christopher
The moon is a sphere
filled with milk,
Is a white football
floating in space,
Is a blob of white paint
on a black piece of paper
with other smaller dots
surrounding it,
A snowball with little bits
falling away every night,
A bulb in outer space
and it lights up our night.
What is the Sky?
By Ruth
The sky is a painting with cotton wool stuck on with glue,
The sky floats around the world like a big balloon,
The sky is a bird looking for a seed to eat,
The sky is above us to protect us from the darkness of space,
The sky resembles the joy and happiness
we find in the big happy world,
We see the sky when we look up past the clouds, sun, snow and rain.
The sky is happiness!
What are We?
By Emlyn
We are the models
made by earth.
We are the souls
made in birth.
We’re like monkeys,
We’re like chimps.
We’re like creatures
coming from soil.
We’re the ones
that make it good.
We’re the ones
that make the wood.
And we’re the ones
that make the earth.
What is the Moon?
By Sam
The moon is a big baby-bell
laid on a black, wooden table,
It is a white rubber
on a giant piece of black paper,
It is a golf ball hit
too far into the night sky,
The moon is a snowball hit against
a newly painted black wall,
It’s a ball dipped in white paint
and hung on a child’s black wall.
What is the Sun?
By Safia
The sun is a fire shining in your sitting room.
The sun is the colour of Whinnie the Poo.
The sun is cheese in your fridge.
The sun is your wall paper.
The sun is a flower in your back yard.
The sun is your bag sitting on your chair.
What is the Sky?
By Shane
The sky is a blue puddle of thousands of yachts
in different shapes and sizes sailing across.
Many different things fall out of the sky
white, water and leaves.
The sky holds many wonders
we have still to find.
The sky is about 4 kinds of colours
blue, black, orange and pink.
Every day and every night
the sky high above us.
What is the Moon?

The moon is a big cheese ball
that is high up in the sky.
It is a silver coin
that has flown into the air.
It is a white soccer ball
kicked high into the sky.
It is a round, white cushion
that is floating in the air.
The moon is a big ball of snowflakes floating in space.

kicked into space.

on black pyjamas.

floating around space.

Stars are lots of torches
in the sky.
What is the Moon?

The moon is our night light,
It’s a bowl of milk.
The moon is a snowball,
It’s the rim of a car.
It is a plate.
What is Lightning?
By Niall
Lightning is a man’s frustration
thrown onto the sky,
Lightning is a wooden stick
with lightbulbs all around it,
Lightning is a child’s drawing
of lines,
Lightning is a python’s tongue
put into the sky,
Lightning is ink
thrown onto the clouds.
What is the Sun?
By Thomas
The sun is a golden ball
in the sky
and it floats around the sky,
if you touch it you will die.
Oh my God,
I will die,
the sun is a bright light
in the sky.
What is the Moon?
By Séan
The moon is a lump of silver
in a never ending blackness.
The moon is a mirror
in a pitch black bedroom.
The moon is a cat’s eye
glinting in the light.
The moon is a torch of silver
in a dark cave.
The moon is a T.V. with bad reception
in a room with no lights.
