A birthday version of Michael Rosen’s poem.

I went to the shop
to get me a cake.
Oh dear!
They gave me a snake.
Oh dear!
Look what I got?
Do I want that?
No I do not!

I went to the shop
to get me a game.
Oh dear!
They gave me a name.
Oh dear!
Look what I got!
Do I want that?
No I do not!

I went to the shop
to get me a gift.
Oh dear!
They gave me a lift.
Oh dear!
Look what I got!
Do I want that?
No I do not!

I went to the shop
to get me a party.
Oh dear!
They gave me a Smartie.
Oh dear!
Look what I got!
Do I want that?
No I do not!

On my way to the zoo
I saw a pig
It was a polish pig
It was a polite, Polish pig
It was a pink, polite, Polish pig
It was a curved tail, pink, polite, Polish pig.
And it wanted to eat me.

I am a sweet turtle
My shell is as heavy as an elephant
My tail is as tiny as a snail
My legs are as round as a circle
My swimming is as relaxed as a sloth
My walking is as swift as a cheetah

Roses are red
Violets are blue.
Can you stay away
When I say

Achoo!

Fantastic, fast ,friendly Felix.
Enjoying playing with me.
Laughing is what we do.
Intelligent and always fun
X-mas is what he loves.

Bye, Freya

I’m as strong as an elephant.
I’m as cute as Pikachu.
I’m as happy as Bulbasaur.
I’m as friendly as a dog.
My tail is as flaming as a fireball.

An anaconda is as raging as a bear.
The anaconda is as furious as a cheetah.
He is as dangerous as a shark.
His slithering body is as scary as a tiger.
If you travel to him he will hurt youuuuuu!
Ouch, that hurts.

A lucky panda eating
Nervous lions hunting
Interesting frogs jumping
Magical cats tricking
Alone dogs playing
Little hamsters that like drawing
Same crocodile like his brother

Freya is as kind as Felix and herself.
Running is what Freya likes to do.
Excited Freya
Young, yawning Freya
As helpful as Felix

I am a proud Muslim.
Allah is as kind as my mum.
My praying is as fun as playing.
My fasting is as challenging as the Olympic Games.
Helping people is as important as praying.
