The Beast That Bellows “Bark!”

by Thomas Sweet aged 10

I have an adorable cat,
I have an adorable cat, it’s really, truly, not very fat.
Once I became a feline, whilst the railway was having a reline.
I chased a rat, I chased a rat, it was relatively fat!
It ran along to the park, to the creature that says “Bark!”
It chased me out of the park, that animal that says “Bark!”

I journeyed up a tree, that is a possession of my family.
An hour later, I saw the dog run away, so I jumped out of the tree.
That dog found me!
It chased me out of the park, that animal that says “Bark!”

Whilst being chased, I fell down a well! I just told myself; “Oh, well!”
I was very glad the dog couldn’t find me!
So wrong was I, so wrong was I!
The dog found me at the exit!
It chased me out of the park, that animal that says “Bark!”

I finally turned back into a human.
I chased the dog back down the well,
Back up a tree, then back into the park!
I chased it back to the park, that beast that says “Bark!”

    What a scary poem Thomas.
    Hope you dont meet the beast that says bark again!
    Well done.
