The beach is hot,
The beach is sandy,
The beach is wet and warm
The beach is getting cold
Everybody is leaving

Maths and Abacus

Once there were four bullies who kept bullying me
Their group was named Math as you can see
There were two boy named Division and Addition
And two girls named Multiplication and Subtraction
They were the horrors which kept running in my mind
They could have been a little kind
Then Abacus came to my rescue
With academy called SIP
With Abacus in hand, concentration in mind,
accuracy in thought and speed on fingers,
I now bully this group called Maths
The Number Kingdom was organised by Abacus
SIP created an interesting numeric trend
And it is also my best friend.

dust leaving the ground,
engine whirs
as the body heads to the clouds
a wave of new possibilities await us
rubber lost,
asphalt marked,
the new world waves Red and White,
a strange sense of connection.
Small space,
new school, age five
A Cold winter, one to two
A Cold summer, one
slightly Bigger,
First close friend, first house change,
age six
Cold winter, two to four
Cold summer, two to four
Bigger,
First ride on a bicycle, first visit to America, age nine
Cold winter, four to eight
Cold summer, three to seven
Biggest,
First time driving a car, second visit to America,
age fourteen
Cold winter, eight to eleven
Cold summer, seven to ten
then . . .
dust leaving the ground,
engine whirs,
as the body heads to the clouds,
a wave of new possibilities awaits me
rubber lost,
asphalt marked,
the new world waves Red, White, and Blue
a strange sense of disconnection.
A new world,
New values,
Out of place.
Travelling!

We’re on a plane,
We’re on a train,
We’re eating food,
We’re having a snooze,
We’re on the rails,
Upon the trails,
We are so high,
Up in the sky, but all that travelling,
Has made me ravenous!
Ice Cream

I scream
you scream
whenever we eat ice cream
I ate too much I got a brain freeze
it’s like I ate some frozen peas
chocolate strawberry vanilla too
if you eat too much you might need the LOO
it’s so yummy
it fills up my tummy
be nice and I will give
and by the way what so you eat it with
Every time I eat it
my mum says I need to sit
as I open the cupboard doors
when I stand on the wooden floors
I found the sprinkles
it felt like I had wrinkles
and by the way what’s your favorite ice cream flavour?
I Don’t Have Many Pets…

I don’t have many pets
Just a cat or two
I really would really like some more
For I have got a few
I have only 3 dinosaurs in the attic
And only just 7 dogs
I may be having 4 or 5 monkeys
Living in the logs
I have just 15 sheep
And only ONE lamb
And a lion, which tends to eat me
Unless I give it ham
I only have 2 parrots
Who LOVE to screech and talk
I only have 5 zebras
Which love to take a walk
I only have ONE elephant
And it is as white as snow
But when I ask my parents for a few more pets
They always say NO

Out in the Garden
in a one fine day
I play with my doll
in a one fine day
I dress up my doll
in a one fine day
Out in the Garden
in a one fine day
I play with my ball
in a one fine day
Out in the Garden
in a one fine day
I bounce my ball
in a one fine day
Out in the Garden
in a one fine day
I play with my teddy
in a one fine day
Out in the Garden
in a one fine day
I throw my teddy
in a one fine day
Out in the Garden
in a one fine day….

There’s a bird in the sky
flying up high
wearing a bowtie
someone poked him in the eye
and now it’s hard to fly
so he’s saying goodbye
and he’s about to DIE!
There’s a bird in a flock
he’s about to drop
to the ground with a frown
while he is in town
He’s gonna get trod on
so he betta switch his head on
or he’ll be drop dead Fred
who is a dead head
