The Goat in the Boat

by Naisha Pradhan aged 11

I once went fishing and do you know what I saw?
Some creature munch-munch-munching on something like straw
It made strange noises and looked like a goat,
Oh yes, it was a goat in the boat!

Floating on the lake,
Oh what a surprise did life just create,
I paddled and paddled until I reached the boat
The boat with the straw and the boat with the goat.

I got into the boat and what the goat did,
It pushed me into the river and grinned like a kid,
I swam and I swam till I could swim no more
Then I swam a little longer, until I reached the shore.

I was tired and soaking wet,
And then oh my, guess who I met?
It was the SAME goofy goat and again, it grinned at me,
I couldn’t do anything but just fleeeeeeeeee
