On 26th September Afrocats took part in a creative writing session with Nikki Mailer, where we wrote our own poems.
It was a lovely session where we wrote in response to the picture below - and participants could not believe how much they managed to write in less than an hour.
The autumn leaves Beneath her dainty small feet crunched Noisily in the mist
Young person, aged 11
Red velvet petals Swirly pathway with wood blocks Wind and moss
Young person, aged 10
Here are some more extracts below:
Ruby red petals descend weightlessly She stands wonderstruck, admiring the pool of red
Misty shadows gloomy air the scent roses filling the air
Trees were a spiral of green patterns, which swayed in the cold breeze, like a nimble ballerina.
The woman standing beneath the tree, it’s like Christmas eve.
The red leaves scattered around. The woman sees the ground.
Sweet caring sister
Fun kind loving cousin
Heart-warming mum
Afrocats would like to give a special thanks to Children in Need for making these poetry workshops possible during this time.
