A Grape Escape

When Sally escapes
Ferocious apes
She tosses grapes.

Fruit Salad

Yellow banana

The ripest cherries

Some tangy oranges

And  some pineapple
All on my salad

 

 

What Kind of Cookies?

Do you like to eat cookies?
Are you kidding me?
Yes, I do.

Camel Mammal

Did you know a camel

Is a four-hoofed mammal?

Ode to Peter Rabbit

Young Peter Rabbit
Had a bad habit.

He saw the merits
Of the farmer's carrots.

He went under the fence
Not using his sense.

He lost his jacket
Creating a racket.

Peter was full of dread.
His mother put him to bed.

Flamingo

There once was a flamingo
That liked to play bingo.
He won every game.
The prize he would claim
A fortunate bird
Went around town chauffeured.

Cerberus in a First Grade Reader

See Spot Run

Run, Jack, run.

Run, Jill, run.

 



(I recently discovered that the word Cerberus means "spotted".  Dick and Jane would never be the same.)
