Aktuelles

Unsere Schülerin Clara (10d) hat während Ihres Auslandsaufenthalts am Dover College im Rahmen ihres Creative Writing Clubs ein Gedicht verfasst, das im nationalen Wettbewerb von der Young Writers’ Association ausgezeichnet und in einem Sammelband veröffentlicht wurde. Wir freuen uns sehr, dass Clara, obwohl Englisch für sie eine Zweitsprache war, so erfolgreich war.

WHAT IS IMPORTANT

Normal people. Normal lives.

Walking around in a city, grey like an elephant’s skin

The only animal encounter being disrupting flies

The best thing to buy is Gin

No one notices. No one cares. That a different world is just around the corner

A world, where a phone would look lost

Lost in the green grass and trees

Where no one bothers how much any of this will cost No electricity around, so you might freeze

Streets turn into paths, lamps into the sun and the forgotten stuffed animals turn real

Like woods of ivory,

Like flames lighting up,

Like nature’s libary

Yellow like a buttercup

The world in every colour

Big or small, thick or thin

Everyone has a home here

You see the birds fly and the tigers grin

Claws are scratching and blood is flowing, but do not fear For everyone is right where they belong

It is not always quiet, but you’ll find peace here, they say Then why do I hear yachts blasting, motors roaring?

See trees being cut cut and wildlife fleeing in a single day in May?

Politicans find everything here way too boring

Forests are now fields or luxury hotels and the sea becomes a land filled with plastic

So forget, people, about these places

See it as just another source of money

Turn to your normal life and only worry about getting braces

Eat the kangaroo, but keep the bunny

And think that the most important thing in life is you
