The Gobi Desert
Creative Secondary School, Melody Yuen, Poetry: Group 3
Day and night, how fast it changes.Over the slopes and under the sky.
A mystery it is how strong it is,changes before you even know.
Animals walking by, with sparkles in their eye and away the sparkles left.
Deadly desert is how Gobi is, bones and pain and death and bodies.
What a killer it is, it snows and rains and shines and changes.
away lifes went and fossils they became, covering mysteries you will never know.
A sound echos, you will never believe that object exists.
a train is coming! Saving you from animals, thirst and hunger.
How strong you are if you can survive.
How normal you are if you are dead.
A bull went by with its kid and tiredness
It saw the train went by and dashed through the desert
They stopped the train, saliva dripping from their mouths
The bull moaned and looked into the soldier’s eye
The soldier’s heart melted and dropped down a cup of water
the two bulls gulped wildly, thats how dry the desert is
The kid jumped and jumped and got missing
It’s mother wailed and called and called
She ran and ran with tears in her eyes
she got tired and fainted under the sun
Two lions went by fighting for a dead mouse
They saw mother bull and darted towards her
They tore her into pieces, and licked their lips
The kid peeked through the cacti and cried out loud
The lions saw him… and everything went black.
