For the poetry contest:

Congratulations to both Nate Loken and Claire Brackenbury

Nate’s poem:

Mr Hannah’s (imaginary) sock of quarters

Never seen

Never heard

It lingers behind locked doors

A cheerful extortion

Alluded to in laughter

As we wheeze and gasp

This invisible weapon,

This quarter pounder,

Socks insolent students

Claire’s poem:

I sit by the door, but don’t make a sound

I’m friends with the floor, and foes with wet ground

I’ll make you look stylish, comfy or tall

I’m cool in the summer, and warm in the fall

As you grow, I must be replaced

Though the places we’ve been remain interlaced;

Tied in a bow, or snapped with a buckle,

Just try to steer clear of those deep, muddy puddles!

Every trip, run, jump and fall;

I gave you support to get through it all
