He lied, oh how he lied,
Claiming to be King;
But in actuality, this lion cried,
At the thought of a little sting.
I witnessed it myself that day,
And couldn’t believe my eyes;
As this big bad cat began to sway,
Desperate to conceal his lies.
He ran away as fast as he could,
Hoping to get lost;
Feeling embarrassed and misunderstood,
Came at quite a cost.
It had been easy for him to scare us,
With his mighty roar and size;
But to see him tremble and throw a fuss,
Felt like winning a first place prize.
I knew someone would eventually call his bluff,
And that they would reveal the truth;
I just never would have thought, all that fluff,
Would be caused by a bee named Ruth.
I have chosen this poem because I like lions and I think it was funny.
My puppy has a doghouse, just outside my door.
He licks me when I pet him, and wags his tail for more.
He’s always there beside me, no matter what I do.
My puppy is my special friend, and a family member, too.
I like this poem because the puppy is their special friend. I also like this poem because it reminds me of Charlie, my Nana and Grandpop’s dog, she gets very excited to see me and licks me and wags her tail.
There’s a worm at the
Bottom of my garden,
And his name is Wiggly Woo.
There’s a worm at the
Bottom of my garden
And all that he can do
Is wiggle all day
And wiggle all night
The neighbours say
What a terrible fright!
There’s a worm at the
Bottom of my garden,
And his name is Wiggly Woo
There’s a snail at the
Bottom of my garden,
And her name is Slippery Sue.
There’s a snail at the
Bottom of my garden
And all that she can do
Is slither all night
And slither all day
And when she goes
She’s got somewhere to stay
There’s a snail at the
Bottom of my garden,
And her name is Slippery Sue
I chose this because my Nanny sang it to me
She knows lots of poems and rhymes about animals because she used to work in a nursery.
The poem I chose is about a polar bear and it’s by Jack Prelutsky:
Polar bear polar bear wear will you sleep?
I will sleep in my cave until it’s time to eat.
Polar bear polar bear what will you eat?
I will eat a big seal for my morning treat!
“The Lying Lion” by Artie Knapp
He lied, oh how he lied,
Claiming to be King;
But in actuality, this lion cried,
At the thought of a little sting.

Desperate to conceal his lies.
