"Words make gateways to infinite and wonderful worlds."
The podcast is the result of a 7th-grade poetry project made by students from Gimnasio Fontana in Bogotá, Colombia. The students have been studying and applying figurative language, symbolism, uniform features, and poetry structures throughout the bimester. For the project, students analyzed the symbolic meanings for the uniform of their choice: "service", "authoritarian", or "sport". Then, they had to write a poem about this uniform.

We have recorded the final results and published them here. We hope you enjoy the podcast!

    A Soccer´s T-Shirt

    A Soccer´s T-Shirt

    Real Madrid is the best team ever I will say for sure,

    although several soccer teams have existed all over the world,

    not a single soccer sentiment

    feels like the one you get when you push your team so they feel treasured.



    Either you can call it just clothing or whatever you want,

    but a team’s uniform goes way beyond that,

    it is your t-shirt connecting to your deep heart,

    and dancing with your emotions at the time you’re signing the anthem-like art.



    A t-shirt can be Either white as a plain paper sheet,

    Or blue as a shining sky,

    Each team is represented by a different color tone,

    I am so related, that my blood color will be the same until I am gone.



    Like some people say about their beloved team

    they will die or do anything for it,

    I rather seat tranquil

    Just to enjoy a good match while just focusing on it.



    Memorizing what someone ever said

    “In variety is pleasure”, and I could not agree more,

    We can have a bunch of soccer team, colors, and feelings,

    and appreciate and learn from them all,

    not judging anyone and respecting each other more.

    US Military Uniform

    US Military Uniform

    Unique suit used by a hero

    Symbol of courage as the great eagle and fear zero

    More stars than in the sky

    Infinite courage, he must-have during the fight, no matter why

    Lose or win, a whole country will give you support

    Immense love they will show when you arrive at the port

    To everyone who dresses with pride his uniform

    A great nation will honor you, even in the major storm

    Red, white and blue, the colors of the flag over the shoulder

    You have to defend the name of millions because you are a soldier

    Under the sea, in the land, or above the clouds

    Nothing will stop a warrior, not even millions of crowds

    Imagine a peaceful world built over the tears of believers

    Fights will be no more and of course no deceivers

    One uniform means effort, proud and passion

    Remember to respect your nation

    Mothers and fathers have raised their children, many to use the US military uniform, to be honored and remembered as great heroes.

    Queen´s Guard

    Queen´s Guard

    Queen, I swear to protect you like a pirate protects his treasure (metaphor)

    Using my red uniform neither a rose petal will touch you without passing through me (hyperbole, idiom)

    Early in a cold winter morning, I would be the strongest wall to protect my wise monarch (personification, imagery)

    Easy? No, it’s hard as hell but my loyalty is stronger enough to betray my kingdom (metaphor, antithesis)

    No job brings me as much honor as representing your honorable crown. (symbolism, simile)

    Solitary and freezing darkness of the night won’t be a problem thanks to my boiling jacket (imagery, hyperbole)

    Guard and serve you leave my spirit with a feeling of peace (proverb)

    Unique is seeing your gems with a red wine color and brightness stronger than the sunlight (metaphor, hyperbole)

    A kid dream that was impossible became possible; my fantasy is now my daily routine (oxymoron)

    Raising your empires flag makes me happy like when I’m with my family (assonance, simile)

    During work turns seeing the palace indestructible walls leaves me a feeling of strength (hyperbole, imagery)

    Not all is what it seems

    Not all is what it seems

    Some times it is not just about what’s outside

    Some times we just say things without thinking twice

    Some times we think we are judges

    Some times we have so many stereotypes



    The fabric is extremely soft

    The shape especially made

    They can do all their turns and moves

    They can make the players feel ready to begin



    That blue and yellow shining

    The colors look just like the sky, in a sunny day without clouds

    The boys in the back smiling

    They all are a fun group of kids



    But their smile is just like a mask

    That covers the pain they have deep in their hearts

    And no one gets to ask

    What’s happening when the game starts



    The game seems to last just one second

    But the tension while playing and seeing the game seem to last forever

    They all want to win and have the best weekend

    Maybe the best ever for them and the school they are leading
