Today I'm gonna tell poems!


My teacher took my iPod.
She said they had a rule;
I couldn't bring it into class
or even to the school.

She said she would return it;
I'd have it back that day.
But then she tried my headphones on
and gave a click on Play.

She looked a little startled,
but after just a while
she made sure we were occupied
and cracked a wicked smile.

Her body started swaying.
Her toes began to tap.
She started grooving in her seat
and rocking to the rap.

My teacher said she changed her mind.
She thinks it's now okay
to bring my iPod into class.
She takes it every day.

"Are we there yet?" I asked my Dad as we towed the caravan.
"Not just yet" he replied... he was driving like my Nan.
You see it's a slow job towing this thing stuck behind the car, we've been travelling for quite a bit and haven't got very far.
I've tried looking out the window and counting all the sheep, and if I look hard enough I might even see Bo-Peep.
I'll go on my DS I think to try and pass the time, or I could try and think of a few more lines for my teachers rhyme.
I think my Mum has nodded off as she gives a little snore, it's a wonder she is comfortable with her face pressed to the door.
"Not far now" my dad pipes up which gives my mum a jolt.
You'd think that she had just been struck my a massive lightening bolt.
I like this song I say to myself as it plays on the radio, although I can't remember the singers name, oh yes it's by Ne-Yo.
I wonder what we'll do all week and what the weather will be.
Perhaps we'll play on the amusements and paddle in the sea.
Yet suddenly here we are at the caravan park, watch out everyone here we come "The Watsons" will make their mark!

I thought I saw her face today
In the sparkle of the morning sun.
And then I heard the angel say
“Her work on earth is done.”

I thought I heard her voice today
Then laugh her hearty laugh.
And then I heard the angel say
“There’s peace little one at last.”

I thought I felt her touch today
In the breeze that rustled by.
And then I heard the angel say
“The spirit never dies.”

I thought that she had left me
For the stars so far above.
And then I heard the angel say
“She left you with her love.”

I thought that I would miss her
And never find my way.
And then I heard the angel say
“She’s with you every day.
