Story Spotlight: Food for thought

Posted by theministry on 7th May 2025

Tall tales, ripping yarns and fantastical poetry. Jump into some of our young writers’ work.

Our young writers are busy bringing DreamSate to life this term, so we delved into our archives to share two tasty poems with you this month.

 

Chicken, rice and peas

Chicken, rice and peas,
Please let it be lunch please
It’s so nice
I could eat it twice
To not have it would be a tease!

By Charlotte


Why I love food

Food is good, food is great
Everytime I’m thinking about grapes.
Food is good, food is great
I want some grapes on my plate.
Food is good, food is great
No I’m not sharing with any of you apes
Food is good, food is great
Cook up some meat, I don’t wanna be late
Food is good, food is great
I’m never sharing my Congolese food with mates.
Food is good, food is great
I’d rather stay in bed with nandos than go on a date
