The Magic Box

I will put in the box
The gold and silver of Planet Jupiter
The cry of the last dodo
The golden playground on a summers day

I will put in my box
Time that never advances
A rupee from golden caves
The blazing fire of a volcanic dragon

I will put in my box
The last survivor of ancient Pompeii
The golden smile of a best friends help
The dark gloom of the silent workroom

My box is fashioned from ice and fire
Shadow and forest, with a water centre
The lid is covered with the sparkling stars of a midnight sky

I will surf in my box
To the lost forest of the emerald trees
To a temple of jade and ruby
And a lake of shining sapphire

I'm such a proud mummy today
Miss Dean - work on your own literacy standards ("much more greater"?) then come back and we'll have another discussion about what is and isn't good writing, OK?!
