Poems

I have a pet pony,
now I am not lonely.
Just taught it a trick,
now time does not tick.
She is my only pet,
and she is not even one yet.

Far, far away lives space
away the stars sway
spinning round and round
away they say
the world is spinning slowly
and slowly the world goes
spinning through the solar system.

It’s my birthday today
please say hooray
please don’t get me anything grey
please bring a special cake
and make sure it is not fake
Please take me out
because there’s a mouse
in the house
I’m not very keen
I’m not even a bean or a queen
Sorry
she said sorry for what?
For being so bossy
I’ve been so fussy??????
or am I ha ha ha

8 x 2 = the teacher will say.
18, Jake answers.
Nope, Liam, teacher said.
Teacher, is it 16?
Correct, the teacher will say.

if you think unicorns are real read on.

I wish unicorns were real
so I could fly up high in the sky
I wonder why there are no unicorns
My friend said, Wake up, this not a dream
I’m not a boring bean
or the Queen

Food is the best
chicken and rice
without any mice
I like pizza .

I am Apple,
A girl with really nothing to lose,
A mum who I hardly know,
A sister appearing out of nowhere,
Blinded by teen hood,
Reminded I’m less fortunate than others,

I am Apple ,
A girl who loves writing,
Sacrificed some things that matter most to me
A girl who is beginning to see what reality is,
Who is now seeing who really is special,
Who really matters,

Dogs are the best
don’t you think?
Better than the rest
that’s why I’m so obsessed
You can play and say Hey!
Let’s not play with boring clay
Have fun with dogs
definitely not logs
as long as there are no frogs
Take it to the park but not into class
in case it might break the glass

Our toys are just joys
we play as well as throw
mostly when were low
Sometimes we can be like a glow
in the hall.
When I play with a ball
I feel very tall
as tall as a castle.
Children play on any normal day
just say I love my toys
HEY!
WHAT A WONDERFUL TIME OF DAY
We can play hide and seek
I promise I won’t peek
I went to the shop and got a lot
a candle stick maker to go with my grater
a doll that was as small as a ball
a dog as big as a log
and the best of all
a ginormous toy car that moved.
