Poems

I was sitting in the detention room,
In the detention room I sat,
Working on the computer,
I was sure my brain would go splat.

When suddenly I had an idea,
I would search on Wikipedia
For the answers that I needed,
I wish I hadn’t pleaded
For the answers that I needed

If I hadn’t pleaded
For the answers that I needed,
Then I wouldn’t be sat
In detention with my brain about to go splat.

The computer started shimmering
And I thought I was being daft
When up on the screen flashed PC Minecraft.
And then the hurricane started up,
I wished that I had my husky pup!

Right then my friends came over
To my house for an animal themed sleepover
One of them asked, “Where’s Ruby?
“I don’t know, but I’m gonna look for that newbie!”

I opened my eyes,
And realised where I was.
‘Really.’ I thought to myself,
I wished that I was an elf!

Because then I could disappear
From this crazy game that I could hear,
Then a mob of Creepers appeared,
“Oh no! I’ll have to fight if I don’t want my house to disappear!”

And there I left my story,
Fighting for my life,
As a skin called Rory,
Enduring lots of strife.

My name is Harley Kiely,
I am fairly tiny,
I went on a trip in the rain,
and then I fell down a drain!
Tiny am I, Tiny am I
Oh, I do like blueberry pie!

The light got fewer and fewer,
as I fell down the sewer,
it was so dark,
all I could see were bright red marks,
Tiny am I, Tiny am I,
Oh, I do like blueberry pie!

I could hear scurrying,
that wasn’t very reassuring,
I could see a load of rats,
one of them was very fat!
Tiny am I, Tiny am I,
Oh I do like blueberry pie!

“Hello!”
I bellow,
“Hello!” They shout back,
“Hello!” Said the one who was very fat!
Tiny am I, Tiny am I,
Oh, I do like blueberry pie!

We came across a web,
it was weird because it was red!
The spider looked at me with its bright red eyes,
and it said,
“I like to eat flies!
Tiny am I, Tiny am I
Oh, I do like blueberry pie!

It gave me a smile,
it was so vile!
I said,
“Why do you like to eat flies?”
“They must be scared before their eyes!”
Tiny am I, Tiny am I
Oh I do like blueberry pie!

I asked,
“Why don’t we be friends?”
They agreed,
“Then we can do all the mends.”
As I turned round the bends,
I said,
“Bye, bye my friends!”

My bedroom is very horribly messy,
my mum nags me to tidy it,
I say no.
Mum says yes.
No, no messy is the way to go.

I didn’t tidy my messy room,
but I had spectacular football training,
I left to go,
I came home,
went to my lair
and it was super tidy!
My mum has quickly tidied.
No, no messy is the way to go!

My mum came up to me
and what I see
is mum crying dreadfully.
She says
“I’ve lost my beautiful wedding ring.”
Dad comes home,
Mum comes downstairs to tell him,
I was so angry my room was really tidy…
No, no messy is the way to go!

My mum has made my bed,
I pulled back out all my clothes on the floor,
I threw my CDs, back on the floor
I emptied my bin out all over the floor
there, it was messy again.
Just how I like it.
Yes, yes, messy is the best.

I was just about to grab a comic,
but in the corner of my eye
I saw something (really, really) shiny
I went over, and
it was…
Mums ring!
I grabbed it,
ran downstairs,
and gave mum her ring!

She was so gratefully pleased,
for a reward.
She gave me sixty whole pounds!
She said go spend it!
I said OK!
but I still said that messy is the way to go!

I picked a Hamster,
I called him Harry!
He was an apricot colour, with a black spot
I miss him a lot my furry friend Harry.

I fed him and fed him with his first choice of food, monkey nuts.
Then all he did was sleep and sleep
I miss him a lot, my furry friend Harry.

Then I went on holiday for two weeks.
When I returned, he was extremely weak and skinny,
and hardly moved at all.
I miss him a lot, my furry friend Harry.

The next day we saw that he was dead!
I miss him a lot, my furry friend Harry.

Dad buried him.
Harry
I miss him a lot my furry friend harry.

Big Ben breaks down, suddenly time starts to reverse,
Big Ben breaks down,
I found myself living with the scary dinosaurs. There I discovered a blood thirsty, hungry T Rex.
His name was Tony

Tony plays football, played football he did,
Dino UTD was his team.
He was scoring goals for them
when suddenly he broke his leg.

We go forward in time…

Big Ben breaks Down
we are now at war with Germany.
Tony quits football to go in the terrifying war.

Man down, man down
poor Tony goes down

Big Ben broke down
Big Ben is now fixed,
and you can hear the loud chimes again.
People in London are delighted.

The bathroom was messy,
one day it was so messy that the toilet had clogged,
oh no the bog had clogged,
look at the grimy water coming up.
Soon the water had flooded the house,
bang shatter shatter,
something had come down the chimney.
I swam downstairs and looked , it was a shark!

Oh no the bog had clogged.
I swam upstairs into my room,
got my boxing gloves went downstairs and bopped the shark on the nose,
I swam up into the toilet and flushed and flushed all the water had evaporated and the shark had disappeared.
Yes, Yes, the bog’s not clogged!

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!”

Last week, I was in my messy bedroom,
“Put the bath on,” shouted my mum,
so I went to the bathroom,
turned the tap clockwise (little bit of hot little bit of cold)
out of the corner of my tiny eye…
AHHHHHHHHAHHHHHHHHHHHHAHHHHH!
A daddy long legs come and get it!
A daddy long legs!
“Mum come and get it.”
I sprinted down the stairs and tightly latched onto my mum,
“A daddy long legs , come and get it!
A daddy long legs!”
My mum came dashing up the stairs
and grabbed the daddy long legs.
“It’s one of Logan’s socks,” screeched my mum loudly, “You silly boy!”

“Dinner,” shouted Mummy,
I was looking forward to this!
“Coming,” replied my rumbling tummy,
I was running down the carpeted stairs,
I opened the wooden door,(gasp)
“Wher…where is it?”
“Right here.” She placed the plate in front of me, phew,
With a huff and a puff Charlie appeared.
He sat down,
when all of a sudden…
A FLYING CARROT HIT ME?!
“Who did that?”
Then it hit me; I had a certain suspicion who.

Mum looked away,
I picked up my shiny fork,
and offer my tray,
My mash flicked up and splattered the clean white wall!
“Ahhh” screamed my frustrated mum,
“Look what you’ve done,
“I’ve only recently painted the room,
You pair of clumsy baboons.”
“I was eating my dinner,
when all of a sudden…
A FLYING CARROT HIT ME?!”

“Why would a flying carrot hit you?”
” Actually never mind, who was it?”
“It was him.”
Stop lying or I’ll throw you in the bin!”
“Not fair,
I’ll pull you’re hair!”
“Silence,” shouted mum.
We slowly turned around
and made one worried sound…
“I was eating my dinner,
when all of a sudden…
A FLYING CARROT HIT ME?!”
“Will you stop saying that?” asked mum angrily
“Oww,” shrieked mum, “a flying carrot hit me.”
“What?” me and Charlie asked?
“Don’t be silly mummy!”

Sometimes, I wish to be a bird
And fly high in the sky.
Perhaps a lovely blue jay
Fluttering and chirping all day,
Or maybe a peacock
Beautifully dancing on high mountain rock.

Maybe even a wild pigeon
My life will never be in a dungeon,
Or else a lovely cuckoo
Everyone will say I’m pretty too.

But the only bird I can be
Is the happy little one you see in me.
