Poems

Last night, I the house laughed
Television giggled at what was showing
Quilts split their sides
Carpets creased themselves.

Last night, I saw the house staring
Lights didn’t dare to blink
Television danced slowly in the moonlight
The clock clapped at me
Teddy bears closed their sleepy eyes.

Last night, I saw the house breathing
Chest of drawers sniffing the smell of food
Rubbish bag talking to the chair
Windows blinking tiredly
Boxes sleeping quietly late at night.

Last night, I saw the house dancing
Curtains closing with a jam
Toys preforming a samba
Fat open books waltzing
And the door, screeched opened and closed to the cha cha cha.

Last night, I saw the house sleeping
Tables snoring loudly
Rubbers tucked themselves in bed
Blinds

Camel rider
Desert transporter
Planet finder
Time machine creator
Treasure hunter
Starter surfer

I will put in my tray
The crack of coins crunching and clashing together,
A spotty lion slowly playing the piano,
A horse galloping as fast as his legs could carry him into the fields.

I will put in my tray
An ugly green gremlin staring at humans,
A great big hippo jogging around the zoo,
A big yellow pencil jumping in the air,

I will put in my tray
A trolley writing a lovely piece of work,
A poster bursting to laughter after the curtains told a joke,
A snowman smiling like there is no tomorrow

I will put in my tray
A beautiful stunning sun shining above the house,
A car flying over the track,
And an elephant stomping like a building is being destroyed.

My tray is fashioned with curls
An awesome brilliant book having a boogie,
A big monkey having a rock.
I will jump in my tray
A football hopped in excitement,
A pencil case bounced up and down.

Waiting, waiting,
For the sign of life.
Waiting, waiting,
For my future.
To wait is to live.
To live is to love.
So be patient and wait.
Wait for love.

When the night time comes, and it’s time to go to bed,
The lights go out, the quilt gets tucked,
then thoughts rush through my head.

Are there witches at the windows, monsters in my drawer,
is that a ghostly giant hand opening my door?

The black crow in the tree outside stares at me from his hole.
His black eyes seem to pierce mine, and stare into my soul.

I hear a noise beneath my bed, my heart begins to thump,
Now somethings crawling up my bed, a purring hairy lump.

The lump turns out to be my cat, we’ve had him from a stray,
That means he’s tough and now I’m safe, he’s chased them all away.

Pop pop pop
popstar
popcorn pop
here pop
there pop
everywhere we go
there is a POP!

Last night, I saw the classroom growing,
Flowers jumping out the soil,
Leaves dancing to the sound of the wind
Dancing up and up

Last night, I saw the classroom breathing,
Shadows whistling all around,
Children standing with their mouths open
The drawers open and shutting like a bear’s mouth

Last night, I saw the classroom moaning,
Teachers’ mouths moving quickly,
Kids bursting into tears
Birds shouting tweet tweet

Last night, I saw the classroom dancing,
Kids glancing and twirling around,
Teachers going to the ball room
The class was full of music

Last night, I saw the classroom crying
Tables crumbling down,
Children beside each other
Tissues flowing down

Last night, I saw the classroom sleeping,
Blinds closed their eyes,
Pencils lay fast asleep

Nocturnal
Noisy
Funny
Good
Is all that he does
for he has sharp teeth
and chestnut brown hair
Strong and bold
Annoying on his wheel
but I still love him.

We play together,
We cry together,
And we will never fall apart
Until the end of our lives
NO MATTER WHAT.

If you want me to drive you crazy
and rattle on your door

If you want me to flicker your lights
and slide on your floor

Then wish for me with all your might
and whisper this three times a night

The phantom
The phantom
The phantom

If you want me to whisper your name
and also banging on your floor

If you want me to smash your window
and show up in your dreams

Then wish for me with all your might
and whisper this three times a night

The phantom
The phantom
The phantom!!!!!!
