David Review (Spoilers)

I went to watch the movie David by Angel Studios with my mom and my brother. As the title of the movie suggests, the movie tells the Biblical story of David who is anointed by the prophet Samuel to be king in place of Saul. After he defeats Goliath, David becomes well-liked amongst the people. This makes King Saul jealous, and he suspects that David is trying to take the kingdom away from him, so he tries to kill him. Now David must run away from Saul. But if you have read the Bible, then you already know what happens in the end. The Good One thing I loved about this movie was the animation. It was gorgeous.

When Life Gets Boring

When life gets boring

Do something different

Like going to a zoo

And freeing an elephant.


If you’re still bored,

Do something extra

Like taking the freed elephant

To your local cinema.


If you’re still bored

Do something you love

Like writing wacky poems

About a fairy or a dove.


If you’re still bored

Get someone to do it with you

Like the elephant you freed

From your local zoo.


If all else fails,

Then face your greatest fear.

Get out of your comfort zone

And sing for the whole world to hear.


If you’re scared to do it alone

Then form a quartet.

The elephant can be one of them,

He’d do well with a trumpet.


If you’re still bored, sorry,

Other suggestions are irrelevant.

By now, you’ll be taken to jail

For stealing the zoo’s elephant.

This poem was created out of boredom and a need to write something different. Stealing elephants from zoos is not advised. However, doing something different and fun (and legal) now and then is. 😊
