Goldilocks

I have a tale to tell about Goldilocks, With her yellow hair and frilly frocks

How one day she left her neighbour hood, And found a cottage in the wood

After knocking getting no reply, She entered in and there did spy

Not one but three bowls of porridge, But at that time she had no knowledge

Of the three grizzly bears, All of whom had their own chairs

Too hard oh what delight, This little chair is just right

One porridge was hot one too sweet , But this one tasted really neat

Her tummy full and felling sleepy, She went up stairs and found it creepy

Three beds were there for her to choose, which one was best to have a snooze

Three bears arrived back at their home, The youngest one let out a groan

He had no breakfast a broken chair, He went up stairs and found her there

"I'll get her "shouted pop, She woke and ran and couldn't stop

As far as we know she is still on the run, And pops still chasing her with a gun.

Hamster

Bought as a child's pet,

Kept in a cage forever,

wheel running non-stop

  Hamster

Bought as a child's pet

Spoiled like a human being

Eaten by a cat.

MY HAND

I like my hand, I hate my hand.

Work at school, You have to use it.

I hate work.

Playing netball, You have to use it.

I love netball, I like my hand,

I hate my hand.

  DIAL

Down at the end of the wooded lane stood a rusty phone box.

Isolated since it arrived at the start of the century.

A legend says it still echoes to the conversations

Look at the spiders talking to each other across the cobwebs

  THE GIANT

There's no such thing as giants, a lot of people say,

But I find them hiding nearly everyday.

I watch them when I am playing, and it isn't very hard,

To find them latter on.....

Because they leave behind a sparkly silver trail.

Yes of course you've guessed it...

It's a giant African Snail.

ELEPHANT

Elephant, elephant,

Bigger than a tree,

And his trunk is even bigger than me,

His tail is as small as a bee,

And his ears are as big as a vehicule wheel.

He is grey and really dry,

His neck is short, his legs are small.

  PAY PHONE

Popping out to use the pay phone.

A friend is waiting for the call.

Let your fingers do the walking.

Insert the coin..start talking.

"Operator, I can't get through"

Clumsy me, I mis dialed.

Entering the numbers once again, I hear my friend on the other end.

It's good to talk.

Slot dial ring tone

Pay phones have hard lives,

Attacked by vandals,

Yelled into by angry wives,

Packed up with 10ps, 50ps and £1 coins,

Hung up in anger and tears,

Operator, emergency, directory enquiries,

Never treated like a proper phone,

Essential though....

GOLDILOCKS

There once was a girl with yellow hair, Who liked to wonder here and there

Goldilocks was the name, Pinching porridge was her game

Three hungry bears out for a stroll, Left steaming porridge in a bowl

Goldilocks smelled the porridge, This came to her knowledge

She peeped her head round the door, Her eyes lit up with what she saw

Three pots of porridge on the table, All the porridges had a label

Big medium and small too lumpy too hot just right, A minute later the porridge was out of sight

Goldilocks needed to sit, But she had trouble finding a chair to fit

Knowing she had broke some chairs, She wondered up the stairs

She found a bed nice and comfy, The others were to hard and lumpy

Soon she was sleeping, Until she saw the bears peeping.
