My birthday has finally come,
I can’t open all of my presents at once!
I’m getting older,
I’m getting taller,
I wonder if I’m getting shorter?
123 shout yippee, because my birthday is today,
I’m on my way,
To freedom,
My future is ahead,
Of me,
I want to be a writer musician or artist one day.
My birthday!
Poems
The Missing Book
Putting the books into
My bag
At school at the end
Of the day is the best
Thing of school.
Wait! This book doesn’t look
Like mine.
Did somebody keep this,
In my desk?
Might have happened when
Some other class came to ours.
While we were having PE.
Its label says the
Name’s Tony.
And the class is III C.
I open the book.
It’s a computer textbook.
Wait! I had put this book
Into my desk.
Somebody had not put this
Book in my desk.
When we had gone
To the computer room,
The teacher had asked
For my book,
So that she could
Correct it.
I had given it to her.
The bell then rang.
I took my book and
Went back to class.
The only problem with this
Was that this ‘my book’
Was not my book.
I got to III C,
Wondering that this Tony
Would be crying and wondering
Where his computer textbook is.
I go to class III C.
‘Excuse me ma’am,
Is there is a person in
This class called Tony?’
Said I ‘I have his computer
Textbook and would like
To give it to him.’
He had already left.
So I wonder what the next
Best thing to do was.
Guess what I did?
I went to the computer room,
Went to the teacher,
And gave her that textbook.
So, now, hopefully,
That 3rd grader called Tony,
Has got his computer textbook,
And currently is reading through it.
I don’t think I need to hope,
I am pretty sure he got his book back.
Jungle Adventure
Monkeys chattering in the trees
Snakes slithering beneath the leaves
Rain falling like lemon drops
Frogs sitting upon wet logs
Tarantulas crawling across the forest floor
BUT YOU WILL NEVER EVER FIND THE DOOR!
First Steps
First steps
First steps
First steps
Your first steps
First, start eat and drinking
First steps
First words
FIRST STEPS
Heartbroken Child
I sit by the water
Examining the sea
I dance with the waves
And I think about me
How you tear me apart
And laugh at my burns
I don’t ever want to hear those words
You bruise me and hurt me
My heart is on fire
Manipulating happiness
To hateful desire
I take a deep breath
I go out in the wild
Singing the song
Of a Heartbroken Child
