Lost For Words
Lost for Words: Shane's Poem

What living in England means to me?


Living in England means to me
Opening a treasure chest with a key
Living each day full of surprises
Growing up with people all shapes and sizes.

Living in England means to me
A beautifull country I have yet to see
I'm only 9 and have not yet travelled
But when I grow up I'm sure I'll be dazzled.

That's what living in England means to me.


By Shane, a pupil at Monteagle School
