Another entry from this year's Junior Poetry Prize, by Hollie Canning (III form):-
Knowledge: old and new
When I was young
I used to think
that pigs could fly
and cats could wink.
I have a secret
and you must keep it:
I thought parrots could bark, and
carrots would make you see in the dark.
How silly I was back then -
when I dug in the sand
to find a land,
and demanded chocolate for dinner.
But now I know
how kiddies show
the purest innocence
You could ever know.
