Childrens Book-I Could Eat Dinos For Every Meal Poem by Christine K. Trease

When nip comes to tuck and push comes to shove.
I have to tell you the thing that I love
Is eating dinosaurs they’re a right tasty treat
Yum, tender loins and crunchy front feet!

I hide out of site ‘till one wanders close,
Then I pounce on him quickly and rip off his nose.

The cretaceous old bloke caught plainly off guard
Is sorry he wandered through my back yard!

Before he can sway me with pitiful begs.
I come back strongly and bite off his legs.

When that dinosaur chump begins to wail,
I take no pity, and I rip off his tail!

Before any word could be possibly said,
I carry on stoutly and tear off his head.

With no head, legs or tail, he’s a right mournful sight
Just a blob of a body, which isn’t quite right

So I finish him off with a final huge chomp
And he goes down my throat and I swallow the lump

And he’s glad he is gone, I’m so glad that I squeal
I could eat dinos for every meal!
