First Poems

Sing along
Dance with me
Watch me dance
You will see
I am proud
How I will be
I’m a friend
You will see.

Star berries are red
Tangerines are orange.
Bananas are yellow.
Pears are green.
Blueberries are blue.
Grapes are purple.

I am going to see my cousin
Just her and me
I am going to see my cousin,
whose name is Lily.
I like playing in her room,
I like playing together.
She’s such a great cousin
She will be my friend forever.
I like playing with her in the summer,
All day long is my favourite.
Lily is my favourite cousin
There ever can be.
There can’t be another Lily,
In the world like her.
She’s my favourite Lily,
There is no-one better.

I feel so sad
I feel so cold.
I don’t know why
I feel so sad.
It makes me feel
so heartbroken.
When you remember something so sad
It makes you feel like old things are coming back.
Like memories of stroking pets or
big shocks in the night.

So wet.
So cold.
It falls from the sky,
Nobody knows why.
It makes you feel so sad
but makes some people happy.
Rain helps the plants.

Flower, O flower, why do you grow?
Nobody knows where you come from.
The first of you must have been big.
Nobody knows, my dear flower.
Rose, O rose, one of the flowers
Represents love. There are so many kinds of you.

Oh, you must see the things I can do.
Why, I can balance your pet fish bowl on your new rake,
and don’t worry it won’t break.
Yes, I can also balance a computer on my head,
along with that old spade in the shed.
I can stand with a ball under my feet,
you’re in for a real treat.
While standing on a broom
my ears can hold a poisonous mushroom
With my eyes tied with a rag,
my head can balance a school bag.
Two pencils in my nose
and a piece of paper between my toes.
My whiskers pure white,
ain’t I ready for a karate fight.

Oh yes, the things I can do.
On my right hand I can a hold a book, and on my left I can wear a hook.
While standing on a mat, my hook can hold a cricket bat.
Standing in your hall,
I can disguise an apple to be a great big bowling ball.
While walking down the street,
it can be a real treat.
as I can make friends with a short beefy neft,
that always goes left.

And while I am in the pool under the bright hot light of the sun,
I can also make friends with a long, skinny zite eating a bun.
And just for fun, I can organise a run,
but not under the bright light of the sun,
but in the light of the moon with a monkey carrying a gun.

And yes, that is exactly what I have done.
And I have done that to have loads of fun.
Everyone says no no no!
But we have already started.
One two three go go go!

through wind or sleet
rain or snow

I will always take
you where you
want to go

Glow in the dark
Glow in the day
Your faith is within you
Your day is coming soon
You are a winner, in the day
And also in the night
When you use your light.

Do you love your mom or dad?
I love my dad and who do you love
Mom or dad?

I love my mom and baby boy
Who do you love?
