WINGS

If I had wings I could fly to Spain,

but I might get a pain 

because of the rain.

My wings would get caught 

and I be shot 

and that would be the lot.     

By Brendan

This is just to say

I’ve crashed your car 

near elephant bar it

was wet and dark 

and I couldn’t see 

and all of a shot 

the wall hit me 

see you soon 

look after my room

By Alissa

Tickly Poems

Today I saw a little ant, 

It crawled into my favourite plant.

I went to see where it had gone,

Then it started to sing a song.

It went like poo poo wee wee poo,

Then I said ‘shut up’ or you're going down the loo. 

I told mum and she said this 

‘You must be going round the twist’. 

I told dad, He said ‘your’re going mad’. 

No one believed me about what I said, 

So I might as well go off to bed.

By Elaine  

Dear God 

I wonder if you can see

An old scrappy cat like me

Has come to the time of life

That wants no more trouble or strife

My fights are all won

Catching mice I’m all done

The roof tiles don’t call and

I’ve climbed my last wall

A warm bed at night

Would be a welcoming sight

A saucer of cream my wish and

A plate full of fish the dish

For an old scrappy cat like me

While I wait for, my god, to see thee.

I Had Red Sauce on My Chips

I had red sauce on my chips.

Why?

Because I Wanted to.

Why?

Because it is lovely.

Why?

Because that is the way it is made.

Why?

Stop saying WHY!

Why?

I had a bear for dinner!

WHAT?

By Heather

THE OLD SEA CHEST.

 

In the black, black chest , there was a Black, black bag 

and in the black ,black bag there was a black, black ball 

and in the black, black ball there was a black ,black tennis ball 

and in the black, black tennis ball there was a tiny killer ghost.

At the start all the girls and boys told the congregation about themselves. The boys and girls all looked great in their new outfits. They all had a great day afterwards and they will always remember Saturday 8th of May.
