Poetry Fun

This week in school we have been reading through The Llama Who Had No Pajama by Mary Ann Hoberman. The book is filled with lively humorous poems and cute illustrations. This morning after reading two poems of similar style, which induced darling giggles from the kids, I decided we should write some in the same style. I give you Pig and Fox.

PIG 
Bacon
Yum
Pork chop
Delicious
Piggily
Squiggly
Jiggly
Make me giggly
Roll in mud
Squeak
Peak
Eat and beat
Good meal.

FOX
Slyly
Wily
Tricky is he
Pounce on hens
Little turkeys
Slyly
Wily
Golden Eyes
Spot the pheasant
And the mice
Red Fur
White-tipped tail
Colors the murderer
Slyly
Wily
Is he,
Now asleep.
