Fom 4, SMK Seri Nibong

Poems by Form 4 Pupils, SMK Seri Nibong

Introduction

These poems were produced by pupils of Miss Ooi, after work in class on the topic of aging.


1 By Previnsha and Bala

When I am old, I will not look as good as before.
No one will recognise me, for sure.
People will say “Heh! Who’s that creepy-looking old man?”
The young ones will just giggle away at my long beard.
If only I were twenty years younger,
I would give them a piece of my mind.

2 Old
by Thibasini, Naveena, Tanigaiyarasi, Anita Rani Naidu, and Jevita

Now I am old, I have many problems.
No one cares about me.
People always ignore my feelings.
The young ones do not respect me anymore.
If only I could turn back the clock.
I want to become young again.

3 By Bu Wei Khang

When I am old, I will not be handsome.
No one will fall in love with me.
People will laugh at me.
The young ones will not obey me.
If only I could take better care of myself.
I want to be a better man.

4

When I am old, I will become weak.
No one will take care of me.
People will not bother themselves about me.
The young ones will irritate me.
If only I could go back to the past.
I wish my beauty would last forever.

5

When I am old, I will be lonely.
No one will talk to me.
I will have problems with my health.
The young ones will not care.
I will long to be young again.
If only I could get my wish.

6 By K. Tamilselvam, V. Tulen, and K. Ravindran

When I am old, I will be alone.
No one will take care of me.
I will have problems that will affect my health.
The young ones will be healthy.
I will long to be young again.
If only God would bless me.

7 Old, Old, Old

When I am old,
I will be in my dotage.
No one will take care of me.
I will have many problems.
I will not be able to see small things.
I will not be able to hear low tones.
I will not be able to remember important events.
I will not be able to eat hard food.
I will also have many health problems.
I hope my old age will not be like this.
This is only my fantasy.

8 Problems, Problems, Problems

When I’m old, I will have problems.
No one will take care of my problems.
I will have problems with my eyesight.
The young ones will jeer at me.
I will want people to take care of me.
This is the only thing that I will want.

9 Popeye

Tomorrow, tomorrow and tomorrow,
I will be elderly.
My skin will be wrinkled.
My hair will be grey.
I will have problems then.
This is something that will happen to me and everyone,
when they are old.

Class 6 - SK Methodist School

Teacher: Pn. Hooi

Introduction:


The class was introduced to simple haiku poems, and then asked to write their own. This was their first attempt at writing them. One of two wrote more than 3 lines, so these poems are not really haikus. They were not told to write titles. They only had about 5 minutes to write them, at the end of a lesson, and they did not have very much guidance.
