THE LOST DOG

 

I WAS GOING TO THE PARK

IT WAS QUITE DARK

I WAS ON MY BIKE

THE ONE THAT I LIKE

MY MOM CAME WITH ME

AND SHE HAD A KEY

SHE WAS HOLDING THE LEAD

WITH THE DOG ON THE END OF IT

WE GOT TO THE PARK

AND I LET THE DOG OFF

SHE WENT SO FAST

I COULD NOT KEEP UP

ME AND MY FRIEND ADAM WENT ALL ROUND

BUT COULD NOT SEE LUCKY

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT

THERE WAS 'LUCKY' IN THE NIGHT LIGHT.

 

At Christmas Time

 

It is fun at Christmas time

It was when Mary had a son

He was named Jesus

He was born in a barn

There was a farm there

 

 

At Christmas time we get lots of presents

We celebrate because of Jesus’ birth

He got some presents and one of them was mirth

Once again it is Christmas time again

God sent a star which lit the sky.

 

 

Dads

 

Dads are funny

Dads are smelly

Dads are loud

Dads have big bellies

But my dad is the best

 

Dads are strong

Dads can hurt

Dads are annoying

Dads can be bullies

But my dad is the best

Lend us a tenner

 

 

 

 

Moms

 

Moms are great

Mums are funny

Moms can shout

Moms are loving

My mom is caring

 

Moms can cry

Moms look after you

Moms help you

Moms share

My mom is the best

Get us a present

 

 

 

 

TOUNGE TWISTERS

 

Once a fellow met a fellow in a field of beans

said a fellow to a fellow can a fellow tell a fellow

what a fellow means.

Sally split the sheet and the sheet split sally.

She said should she show her shoulder to a

soldier.

I watched a carwash wash a car I wish I could wash a car like a carwash washes a car.

 

WHERE IS SHE?

 

Perhaps she’s at the shop

Knock knock

Perhaps she’s in bed

Knock again

It's strange, she’s normally up early

Knock again, try again

 

There was water in my eyes

The colour drained out of me

I saw in my head I was in black.

I looked around

And there was my nan's coffin.

I was hearing drowsy music and everyone

Was crying.

 

3 big blows

From the policeman’s boot.

The door smashed open

"Wait there Michael"

As though she knew

My mum sprung up the stairs

"oh my god mum"

That's it I thought she was gone.

My breath went - darkness like my life had ended.

 

And then I saw her sitting on the bed.

Not dead, just woken up.

 

Dictating to a Computer

 

[A Poem By Edward, Jason, Adam, Paul and Michael]

 

Technology is great...

Now you can tell your computer a story...

I told it this...

 

Ants a pony tame

Air was a pants-on hints

Widow boot tipple oars cord silver

Andy olive dapply heather rafter.
