Della Perry Poems

When I was young
Say nine or ten
I'd rush to the park
At the end of our road
...

Washing up bubbles
Wrinkly fingertips
Squashed potato
Carrot

Dear Tin of Roses Owner,
Hello, just a post it note to say
You shouldn't leave your sweets lying around,
Someone could steal them
...

Dear Poet,
We really enjoyed you reading out your poems
Especially the funny ones about our stupid teachers
And the way you poked fun at them
...

Many doorways are open to us
Always follow your own voice
Take inspiration from others tones
To help you choose the correct doorway
...

The Titanic sank because of me
At the time I was only three
I've got to get it off my chest
I did a bad thing, you know the rest
...

My sister was playing with her toy magic wand
When swoosh, swish, swoosh
There was a hippopotamus in our fish pond!
He popped up his head and gave a loud groan
...

Where have all the board rubbers gone?
The teacher shakes his head.
Where have all the chalks gone?
The assistant shakes his head.
...

I went for a long walk with my dog
We saw across the street a green frog
He waved and as he started to retreat
We noticed he had fluffy feet.

Monday;
Woof, woof, keep reading it gets better!
How dare that man keep putting his rubbish through the letterbox.
I tried really hard to bite his fingers but he's too fast. Maybe tomorrow!
