The theme for Week 11 of Lyrical Sunday is ‘COLOURS‘. Either choose one colour or many.

Sophie and Charlotte came up with the theme and have already written their poems, which they would like me to share with you in this post.

Here’s some links that may help inspire…

Blue

Poem & photographs by Sophie (Age 5)

When I look out the window,

I see flags the colour of the rainbow,

In front of my play house.

Blue is my favourite colour,

I like it when it’s dark and light,

But not when it’s in the middle.

I see it everywhere, the sky and the sea,

and my sister’s little blue slide.

Rainbow

By Charlotte (Age 7)

Blue like a deep dark sea,

Red like a blooming rose.

Orange like a fire on a candle one night,

Yellow like the bright hot sun.

Green like the soft green grass,

Pink like the petals of a flower.
