This term I am looking forward to exploring poetry with everyone.
I have put together a quick slideshow of some poetry I found around my home today – do YOU have any poems hanging out at your place?
Great question Mrs, just what i’m looking for, it was written on my first page of the book when i found it, hope you like it 😉
MOTHER!
1.”M” is for the million things she gave.
2.”O” means only that she’s growing old.
3.”T” is for the tears she shed to save me.
4.”H” is for her heart of purest gold.
5.”E” is for her eyes, with love – light shining.
6.”R” means shes right and right she’ll always be.
7.Put them all together, they spell,
8.”Mother”
9.The word that means the world to me!
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Art is a long, life is short!
When i saw that and read it over a few times, i realised i learnt a lot from a short, strong, touching poem. It’s the BEST poem i’ve seen….. 🙂
Thanks for sharing your poem Sarah.
It’s surprising where you can find them!

I bought a pet banana
and I tried to teach him tricks,
but he wasn’t any good at
catching balls or fetching sticks.
He could never catch a Frisbee,
and he wouldn’t sit or speak,
though we practiced every afternoon
and evening for a week.
He refused to shake or wave or crawl
or beg or take a bow,
and I tried, but couldn’t make him bark
or get him to meow.
He was terrible at playing dead.
He couldn’t jump a rope.
When he wouldn’t do a single trick
I simply gave up hope.
Though I liked my pet banana,
I returned him with regret.
Boy, I sure do hope this watermelon
makes a better pet.
You’re welcome Mrs Pericles, i’m glad that you appreciated my unknown poem 🙂 I will try my best to keep up and comment 😉
P.S Good luck.

Thanks Sarah – glad you are still on our blog 🙂
Did you see that I moved the blogs from last year up to the header across the top of the page?
You should keep blogging if you enjoy it and want to share what you are doing in 3Discworld!
