More Words

by Macie Robyn McAllister aged 9

I think this poem piece
Needs to increase
It needs more words
Coming in herds

Hey, look, I’m a poet
And I didn’t even know it
I’m reaching the stars
Which are further than Mars

I think this writing
Needs more of a sighting
Like a holiday in your head
Like every book I’ve read

Hey, look, I’m a poet
And I didn’t even know it
I’m faster than cars
I’m getting very far!

I think these words
Need to fly like birds
I can’t stop rhyming things
Which gives this poem a little ding!

Hey, look, I’m a poet
And I didn’t even know it
I’m stronger than lions that go raaarr,
And that’s the end of my poem, ta-da!
