"hogwarts" poems
fall was in the air and it was a very dreary october day. the halls of the old victorian house had been filled with new arivals and lots of noise. "i can barely hear myself think." Madison sneered, a cigarette in her hand as she stood next to zoey and nan in the hallway. looking at the new girls with disguist. "and none of these new ******* better step on my toes. this isnt ******* hogwarts." she rolled her eyes. "hogwarts." zoey laughed, making nan laugh aswell. "if this were hogwarts, you would be draco malfoy" nan joked. "hardy har har." Madison snickered. "and you would be harry potters fat cousin because your ugly and nobody loves you." madison smiled. "well, i think it's great." zoey said cheerfully. "all of these girls would feel lost and alone and now they have somewhere to belong.". "you would say that." Madison rolled her eyes. suddenly a slightly younger girl with big green eyes and long brown hair and freckles rushed up to the three of them with a gleam in her eye. "oh my god it is you! you're madison montgomery!" the girl explained. " i love you! will you sign my back pack?" the girl turned around and Madison pulled a pink highlighter out of the side of her floral backpack. her face lit up as she wrote her name on the backpack making zoey and nan smile aswell. "thank you! thank you! thank you! you're my idol." the girl blushed. "my name is Cassie motts, i've seen all of your movies, i love you! i love you! i love you!" the girl giggled. "alright.." Madison had been taken back a step. "have a great day you little ****** she smiled, a look of confusion hung upon her face. "thank you.. you dont know how much this means to me." the girl explained cheerfully and walked away. "well ladies it looks like we're the head honchoes around this **** show." Madison sighed, still slightly smiling. "i was always the head honchoe." nan replied. "yeah, okay, right." zoey rolled her eyes and smiled at nan as the three made there way down the hall together.

Rest in peace to all the brave gryffindors The courageous ones with hearts that soar Rest in peace to all the smart ravenclaws You left this generation in intelligent awe Rest in peace to all the clever slytherin without you, many of us wouldn't grin Rest in peace to all the kind hufflepuff I know our journey was tough Avada kedavra to the other sort Crucio on voldermort imperious on the non deluxe Destroy all of the horcrux Shortlived were the cohorts That tried to defeat hogwarts we thank you

#16YearsBattleOfHogwarts
The gusts of wind rustle through his dark hair as he rides his broomstick In the search of the golden snitch – In the search of the ferrety golden snitch. And in his mind whizzes past an image – at lightning speed, very swiftly, As his expert eyes go after the small shiny metallic ball. The Nimbus 2000 he once owned has now been replaced with another In the attempt to make him quicker – In the attempt to make him quicker. His eyes look like his mother Lily’s – His father James was a Seeker, This is an analogy of a natural case of heredity in Harry. The old broomstick Nimbus 2000 he owned was broken into pieces In his third year at the school of magic – In his third year at Hogwarts. Dementors attacked him – in the Quidditch pitch during a match, And he fell several feet below from air before Dumbledore saved him.

My Slam Poem About Harry Potter
Oh you may not think I’m pretty, But don’t judge on what you see, I’ll eat myself if you can find A smarter hat than me. You can keep your bowlers black, Your top hats sleek and tall, For I’m the Hogwarts Sorting Hat And I can cap them all. There’s nothing hidden in your head The Sorting Hat can’t see, So try me on and I will tell you Where you ought to be. You might belong in Gryffindor, Where dwell the brave at heart, Their daring, nerve, and chivalry Set Gryffindors apart; You might belong in Hufflepuff, Where they are just and loyal, Those patient Hufflepuffs are true And unafraid of toil; Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you’ve a ready mind, Where those of wit and learning, Will always find their kind; Or perhaps in Slytherin You’ll make your real friends, Those cunning folks use any means To achieve their ends. So put me on! Don’t be afraid! And don’t get in a flap! You’re in safe hands (though I have none) For I’m a Thinking Cap!

But now you all act to cool for **** why not go back to you child hood and remember how much fun you had playing lightsabers, wands and Nurf stuff also when you came upon an automatic door an acted that you used the force on it am I right or am I just a fool I know every generation had their wish to be’s. Maybe you weren’t a WARS fan maybe you were a Treckie or one for the Doctor and his big blue box or a Wizard with an owl but at least once in your life you were a nerd or a fanboy or a fangirl over what you saw as the coolest thing.

Being a jedi
I was once a young boy wizard, who saved the world with his friends. I was once the Mockingjay, whose adventures had no end. I was once Divergent, and one choice changed my life. I was once a Demi-god, and my pen was also a knife. I was once a kid with a treehouse, That travelled to anywhere in time. I was once a young girl who lived in the woods, in a small house, but that was just fine. I was once a young German orphan, stole books and read them for fun. I was once a hobbit who found the one ring, but still my exploits weren't done. When I read a good book, I sail away, To Hogwarts, The Factions, The Shire. I am the characters I read, I'm Leisel, I'm the Girl On Fire. So sail me away, give me a book, I promise you it won't bore me. For when I am reading a well written tale, Though I am me, I'm the story. ----------------------------------------------------

Sail away
My First Day at Hogwarts On a Saturday morning, I woke up in pain. Perched on top of my head, Was an owl shaking its mane. As I focused my glance, the owl got clearer. There was something clutched in its beak; a pale yellow letter. When I opened it, words started to bloom, Mr Y. Vartak, The inner bedroom. ‘You have a place in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Points will be taken for wrong, and awarded for bravery.’ I showed it to my parents, Who were not at all surprised. They were in fact very happy, I am a wizard I realized! We took a plane to London, Visit Diagon Alley. In a hurry to buy my first wand, robes and stationery. It was the first of September, so we hurried to Kings Cross. We got to platform nine and three quarters, after struggling through the chaos. I had everything in my trunk, I had nothing more to get. My parents surprised me, by giving me an owl as a pet. I got a seat in the Hogwarts Express, and put my robes, There was a boy opposite me, he was juggling bewitched globes. We got off the train, At Hogsmeade Station. There was an amazing castle, that was beyond my imagination. We rowed across the lake, sitting on boats, It was getting colder, so we pulled on our coats We entered the hall, Full of eyes. There was a roof above us, that represented the vast skies. There was a dusty hat, in the middle of a stage, It had a rip near the brim, so it looked older than its age. A professor named Minerva, Put that hat on my head. The rip opened like a mouth, Interesting is what it said. The Sorting Hat as it was called, said that he had to think some more, After a while it yelled: ‘He’ll go in GRYFFINDOR!’ I joined the Gryffindor, at the Start-Of-Term Feast. We were so involved I talking, we cared for our sleep the least. After the feast, we departed, for Gryffindor Common Room, Outside the portrait hole, there was, a shiny black broom. I changed from my robes to my nightdress, lay down watching the dying ember. My eyelids were getting heavy, I walked into a deep slumber. This poem is written by me, Yash Singh. Specially written for my favourite, Joanne Kathleen Rowling.

Dear Ronald Bilius Weasley No matter what others say I will always be your fan You are such a marvellous character Not perhaps, a perfect one But a character with flaws So real, and so beautiful That we can totally relate to it In your first year at Hogwarts You played a game of chess In such a magnificent manner That even the Russians of the Muggle world Could not have done any better In your second year at Hogwarts You faced your greatest fears With a courage and nerve That Godric Gryffindor would have been proud of For the sake of your best mates In your third year at Hogwarts You almost ruined a friendship For the sake of a rat and a broomstick But you made amends for it By standing up to a notorious murderer That too with a broken leg Again, for the sake of your best mate In your fourth year at Hogwarts Again, there was a misunderstanding That threatened to derail a strong friendship But you were there for Harry When it truly mattered There was also some ugly ****** jealousy As your teenage hormones took centrestage But at least you got an inkling That you and Hermione Were made for each other In your fifth year at Hogwarts There was a lot you had to put up with The constant bullying of the Slytherins Especially during Quidditch matches The temper tantrums of your best friend And finally, the evil Dolores Jane Umbridge Initially, due to your nerves and insecurities Your Quidditch performances went from bad to worse But then, you finally showed us The stuff you were made of Saving goals left, right and centre And to cap it all You bravely fought a dozen Death Eaters Yet again, for the sake of your best friend Finally, we come to the war Due to your never-ending insecurities And anxiety for your family Worsened by a dreadful locket That contained a part of Voldemort's soul You briefly deserted your best mates But returned when it mattered the most Even saving Harry's life in the process And then, as you destroyed that darned locket You finally conquered your fears And transitioned successfully to manhood Finally, during the Battle of Hogwarts You showed us your sensitive side A side that we had never seen before As you displayed your concern for the house-elves Precipitating your first kiss with Hermione Later on, you lost your dear brother But continued to soldier on bravely Even standing up to Voldemort himself Hence, dear Ronald Bilius Weasley No matter what others say I will always be your fan

I asked again but my hope refused to extinguish, It smiled and told I had always been distinguished. So, I kept checking my mail box even if it seemed lame, I kept waiting and waiting but that Hogwarts letter never came. Eleven progressed to twelve, twelve to thirteen, Mistaken- I thought-they must have been, Meanwhile I did my own reading and learnt all the curses, And with the wand I never had I practiced all the verses. First of September arrived again, and again, and again. And with the years that passed, so increased the pain, “So the age limit isn’t actually eleven!” then I optimistically thought, “Oh! What a brutal test of patience they cleverly plot!” Pictures in newspaper don’t move, brooms yet don’t fly, And yes there are times that these thoughts make me cry, “Hogwarts doesn’t exist”- Oh! These oblivious muggles continue to tell, Deep down they are just jealous that they just can’t cast a spell, “Well, can you?” they ask laughing and teasing, Their voice brimming up with sarcastic appeasing… “Not yet” I silently speak, “Just wait for days some... My pretty little Hogwarts letter is just about to come.”

I'm a Harry Potter Fan
Books: the greatest weapons of the world. Full of Mocking jays. Each one being Divergent to the others. Books are like a Maze that we have to Run through. They're like a Testing that will never end. Not even the great Hogwarts can stand against their power. Books are more beautiful than the Twilight sky. More powerful than Percy Jackson, than the Heroes of Olympus. Books are the true heroes of the world.

A loud knock, was what I heard. At this hour of the night, who might that be, I wordered. Begrudgingly, I opened the door, only to meet a giant, and all so hairy man, (not in a **** way though). Hey young lady, I'm Rubeus Hagrid, here to pick you up. You are not a muggle, you do not belong here. There is a school for you, Hogwarts is its name, school of witchcraft, and wizardry, (not a regular school per say). We better hurry up child, or the train will leave us. It awaits at Platform 9¾, and if we are not on time, Dumbledore will have my head. If we are late, you will miss the sorting hat, which makes me wonder, are you a Slytherin, or a Gryffindor. Anyway hurry up, so go on and pack. I would give you my wand, but you do not know how to use it. Do not look confused my child, instead be happy. being a muggle is no fun, you will realise soon. So hurry up lets go, ( I already hear snape grumbling). $angila$

Red and gold brave and bold while we do something idiotic it usually stops someone psychotic It's a battle royale set in 1984 and furthermore as you know I'm sure, that's 5 more points for Gryffindor! Found at Hogwarts in the wizarding courts. The zero turned hero defeats Lord Voldemort

I came to study the magical arts But these troublesome three students Hermione, Ron and harry, Last semester those three students Killed our defence against the dark arts teacher I guess if he didn't stand against three kids, How would he survive against the real dark arts, Now this semester they're up to their shenanigans again I wish I could just Wingardium Leviosa them off a cliff But if I do that Or even if I fail my grade this semester My parents will probably Avada Kedavra me.

Diary Of A Hogwarts Student
My generation Is the generation in waiting. We're just waiting For our lives to change. We do all the things We're supposed to, And are still met With criticism. Because half of us Are doing our best, Working our hands to the bone, Breaking down from some Terrible disorder. And the other half Are just wading around in the kiddie pool, Trying to find their footing into adulthood, Or not. The adults That were the adults That raised us Like to only focus On the half that's not even trying. But we're the generation In waiting. We all waited to be eleven, So our Hogwarts letters would come. Because we wanted to escape This pointless existence. Now we're all twenty two or turning so, Give or take a few months/years, And we're waiting for the moment Everything changes. Waiting on that interview, that promotion, that phone call. Waiting for someone to confess, waiting to confess, Or in my case, waiting for the other shoe to drop. We wait, Because we were never taught That our lives were our own, We were always considered Tools to be used by others, Our purpose isn't ours, And that's not a bad thing. We're in waiting, Because we're waiting for someone to save us, To come to our aid, To grab our hands And whisk us away To a better place. But maybe if we all stopped waiting, Maybe if we got up and did things for us, And therefore each other, We wouldn't be the generation in waiting-- Rather, the generation of doing.

Waiting (My Generation)
There comes a point in your life when you dont understand what will happen the very next moment. When every single second astonishes you, when every other happening around you makes you question everything that you have ever done, every decision that you ever took, every path you ever choose, each word that you ever uttered. When there is darkness all around you and no hope of light. When all the motivational quotes of "finding a ray of light; hope, at the end of the tunnel", becomes as fictional as the world of potter. But we still wait, yet we search for that fictitious light everytime, every second, every moment. Do you know why? Because nothing in this world is stronger than your wishes, your passion, and your desire to get something that you want. Believe in yourself and you will find your hogwarts one day.

Hogwarts of Dreams
Let's get one thing clear: When people say "You're all I've ever wanted", they're lying. I want many things. I want a pizza. I want to get an A for a paper I hardly studied for. I want a room with wooden floors. I want a house facing the sea. I want to walk into Forever 21 and take home anything I like. I want to travel around the world. I want to be better at sports. I want my ulcer gone immediately. I want longer eyelashes. I want to finish an entire season of a tv show without anyone bothering me. I want more followers on Twitter. I want to be friends with my favorite Youtuber. I want a pair of twin boys. I want Hogwarts to be real. I want to be good at archery like Katniss-freaking-Everdeen, cause it's so ******* cool. I want a new phone. I want to sleep late watching chick flicks without having to worry about sleep deprivation. I want three hamsters. I want superpowers. I want to fly. But you see, here's the catch: What I want most, is you.

Wants
streams of salt and H2O leak down reddened cheeks and condense in a golden beard. a war-torn nation, half-a-world-away, crystallizes clear as dayspring in an insomniac's screaming and fragile psyche at half-past-three in the morning. what strength must a seven-year-old posses to persevere amidst the perversity of cluster bombs? munitions bought and paid for with the taxes we fork over to the United States. will her blood one day stain our hands with crimson? will her mother's? a girl who just wanted to read, to escape the tragedy that inundates our surroundings, to a magical realm of pure imagination. where we can summon spectral stags to save us from the misery of humanity and learn to disarm those who would harm   us with the charm, Expelliarmus! the bastion where i found the first seeds that grew into a rebellion opens its doors to you, Bana. there's a crater where your house used to be, rubble strewn in Aleppo, Syria. but know that Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home.

Hogwarts
You stepped foot out of the car and sauntered over I was sure I could watch you come home to me everyday But we only had 94 hours together Although, I craved for you to stay We watched through the tale of The Boy Who Lived (And you dozed through all my favorite parts) We relived another seven years in the castle and hallows While it was really only nineteen hours on the couch Still, time was of the essence It had been far too long since your hand was in mine So, I strived to make the most of it Before you drove back across the state line It was during those 94 hours When you whispered all your affection to me The glow across your face from the television When you told me you were falling in love with me Those 94 hours came to an end and you packed up all your things You placed my hand on your beating heart, sorting out every feeling Your car then left the driveway just as easily as it came All of our time spent apart made me realize one commodity Absence does make the heart grow fonder

Hogwarts, Hearts, and 94 Hours
This is a world of pure magic. Nothing more or less than Hogwarts I'd say. It might sound abstract but Even the most basic function of life -Breathing, is a magic which is Much beyond our understanding. All of us are magicians And that too, without a wand. Or just maybe, We're magic. Created by Another magician.

A World Of Magic
Home - what is home? Most people equate it with where they live, but I have a different idea. Home is where the heart is, right? And what's to stop your heart from going to some place you've never been? Nothing. Just as you can't help falling in love with people, neither can you help falling in love with places. That's why, to me, Hogwarts is home. 221B Baker Street is home. The TARDIS, the Shire, the Burrow. All are home. The USS Enterprise is my home away from home. Same with the Winchester's 1967 Chevy Impala. They say you can feel homesick for places you've never been. Most people can't quite understand how that works, but I know what it's like. While I may get to visit all of these places in my mind, thanks to the stories surrounding them, I'll never be able to physically visit these places. They're real to me. They just don't exist. But I have been there - to all of them. Through words on a page or through scenes playing out on a screen, the stories surrounding these places have allowed me to visit them. I know from these stories what it's like to travel through time and space. To live in King Arthur's court. To witness Sherlock Holmes bored. Stressing over Potions essays, adventuring to Mordor, bonding through hours-long drives across country. These things, these experiences; they've filled gaps in my soul that I didn't even realize were there. And that, I think, is why I call them home. So that even when their stories are over, I'll still have that connection to them.

I remember Those splendid days So full of hope And laced with timeless wonder Those splended days Each and every one of them Loved, as if they were treasures in a chest As if they were colors and magic, floating through air Those Sundays When I would sneak out and peek into the mailbox Sure that I was invisible to the world With that same hope Maybe an early Hogwarts letter? Maybe an early birthday present? Something wonderful, Something just for me Now and then, I catch a glimpse of that very same Sunday hope, still living with magic Inside of my mailbox.

Words bearing the weight of the universe, transliterated into a language you can comprehend. Loving him feels like Christmas mornings at Hogwarts. When little Harry arrives in the Great Hall, and tasted magic for the very first time. It’s the same feeling Percy gets when he tastes ambrosia, the same satisfaction you’d get when Percabeth kisses underwater. It’s the safety of your covers when the night had passed, and you still couldn’t bring yourself to sleep. It’s staying indoors when it’s pouring outside, occupied with the company of a book. It’s getting lost between the pages and not minding the time. The fresh smell of your favorite outfit once it’s out of laundry, ready to be worn again. It’s warm, it’s soft. It’s not another cliché, it’s love.
