- Fresh Avocado
'The Piano' - Isy Gibson (Year 10)

For numerous years it sat there
Hidden from prying peepers
Like unwelcome baggage
Or an undesirable fate
It perches feebly on its crippled legs
An unexplored scale and a neglected name
With rotten keys and no door in sight
Not a chance of silvery light
Hammers strike weakly
Worn from the beating
Hitting the withered strings
A symphony rusty and torn
It has seen many sights
And survived dozens of years
Experienced as a Steinway
Old as a white oak
It is the 1000 year old piano
