Falmouth & Royal Greenwich Tall Ships Regatta 2014 Arts Project with Artist in Residence John DyerI am on a tall ship.
A beautiful wooden tall ship,
Sailing along with my friends.
Come and join us on our exciting adventures.
Followed along with the vast seven seas,
And their powerful winds.
I am on a tall ship.
A beautiful wooden tall ship,
Sailing along with my friends.
The Great Regatta
Whilst the bell tower struck,
People danced joyfully,
The children could not believe their luck,
As fireworks crashed and burst noisily,
People rushing to see leaving footprints in the muck.
The boats sailed in one by one,
As sailors hurried up the mast,
Eagerly waiting to join in the fun,
The regatta had finally begun at last.

The Celebration
It’s the celebration for the nation
When the fireworks shine so bright in the middle of the night,
The people at the top of the town have such a wonderful sight.
The boats have an amazing height
And some of the boats are so tight, who is going to win?
Who is going to come first? Come on!
The finish line is just some yards to come.
The people were shouting and counting boats
To see if you have won.
The people were panting and sailing on.
The boats were still, were still going on.
The people were singing and dancing to cheer them on,
The race will soon be gone.

TALL SHIP RALLY
Down by the sea where the moon light be,
Fishermen sail across the big blue sea,
The fireworks explode in the dark night sky,
Which sometimes make the babies cry,
Everybody starts dancing to get the big party started.
The white horses gallop and neigh,
To the songs that wonderful day,
Lifeboats and yachts sail across the large ocean,
Watching the fireworks light up the sky,
The tall ships slowly follow,
Watching the fireworks explode again and again,
All the different colours filling the street,
What a special treat.

The Tall Ships
On the side tall ships came into bay
Today.
It was lovely looking at them,
It was really good ,
We had lots of fun .
I went on one of the ships .
I had a wonderful view.

The Banjo
All the people were all excited,
The lovely sound of the banjo,
And the dancing trees,
And the ships on the deep blue sea,
As the fireworks went bang,
The people sang,
Until midnight.

Chaos by the Harbour
Roaring crowds racing about,
Eating fish and chips sitting on the bench,
Giant boats coming in to the harbour,
As fireworks light up the city,
The bell tower struck ten,
Then the sky turned dark blue,
And people danced all night long.
BY JACOB
The fireworks were roaring in the night
As loud as a volcano erupting.
Colour filled the sky.
I could barely believe my eyes.
The sky was like a giant rainbow
As beautiful as the bright sun.
The complete silence broke at the sound of the fireworks
Roaring like football fans shouting.
As the night went on the fireworks started to calm down
And finally stop
And the tall ships come in.
One last ghostly cheer and all the people went to bed.
A Dog at the Regatta
A dog was at the regatta,
He found a bog and got covered in mud,
Although that didn’t matter,
He smelt the sausage rolls at the regatta,
Then he ate them all and became fatter,
The man that sold the sausage rolls got cross,
So he threw a ball of moss,
It hit him on the head,
He ran home to lay on his bed…………
but how those Fireworks boomed, How the crowds cheered,
He got no sleep that night!
