Pink Dolphins

A rare pink dolphin

Leaps high above the ocean

Splash! It dives back in

Some kind pink dolphins 

Live in the ocean below

With beauty that glows

LIMERICK

The Mouse in the Pot

Blibity bobity boo

The mouse jumped in the stew

The stew got hot 

With the mouse in the pot

Blibity bobity boo

The Goat on the Boat

There once was a goat on a boat

And the boat was on a moat

The goat did a prayer 

And soon came the mayor

To take him out of the boat

Snake and the Rake

There was a snake on a rake 

He found it near a lake 

He sat on a mat

Then came a rat

To take the rake away

DIAMANTE POEM

                 Ground

             Solid, bumpy

     Moving, parting, shaking

      Soil, crust, clouds, wind

Brightening, darkening, streaking

             Clear, blue

                  Sky

ACROSTIC POEM

Pizza

Perfectly yummy

I like pineapple on mine

Zesty flavour in each bite

Zazzy toppings, they look so good

Always scrumptious to eat

Art

Always fun to make

Relaxing and inspirational

Takes a long time to create

TANKA

The Beach

Playing on the shore

Now splashing in the water

Building sand castles

Seagulls flying above me

Now let’s eat yummy ice cream

Frogs

Hopping across ponds

And catching flies for eating 

Swimming in the lake

While dragonflies dart above

The frogs lay on lilypads

—-----------------------------------------------------------

LUNE

Cupcakes

I love cupcakes

Chocolate flavour is my favourite

It is yummy

Gummies

Gummies are yummy

They feel like hardened jelly

They taste goooood!
