Quite Simply a Dog.

Hi, my name is Chloe. Every Saturday I go to the school for young writers for two hours in the morning. This enhances my writing skills, allows me to compete in all sorts of incredible competitions and to make new friends! Every time I go there is a new topic.

My teacher, Melanie reads us an example of writing on that topic that inspires us to write one of our own. This is a poem I wrote inspired by my my two dogs, Little Bear and Tammy. I really enjoy attending the school for young writers, and encourage people to give it a try!

QUITE SIMPLY, A DOG 

Warm brown eyes 
Begging for the 
Cheese in the fridge 
Or a cuddle 
Or a trip to the beach 
It doesn’t matter which one 
As long as it happens 
A dog wants 
To share your 
Warm bed in the evening
 And lick your tears 
Away 
And press their furry body into 
Yours 
Or to run free at a park 
Loyal, beautiful, devoted and kind 
These words 
Melted 
Together to form 
A 
Living 
Breathing 
Creature.
 A dog
