Creative Spotlight: Poetry by Ealysh Gibson

Here is another fantastic piece of creative writing that was brought into the Library. A fantastic piece of poetry by Ealysh Gibson (Y9).

The Price.

This is stupid -

Being forced to write something to rival the beauty of cupid.

Expected to gain high grades and marks,

In the future

Earning Dollars, Pounds and Marks*.

Because pressure put on us today

Is affecting our minds - making us pay.

In the long run

Everything's a little less fun.

Ealysh Gibson.

* Marks were a currency used in Germany between 1914 and 1923 following the end of World War I.
