Tea at the Knee by the Sea
“It’s me,” said She
“Who’s me?” said He.
“I am the Bee
Called to see
If you can come to tea.”
“You and me
Having tea?,” said He
“Yes, you and me
Having tea
At a party at the Knee.” Said Bee
“At the Knee? That’s by the sea?” said He.
“Yes, at the Knee by the sea
On Friday at half past three.” Said Bee
About the Tickago
Mr Poe Mr Goe and Mr Mikazo
Went to Chicago
To get a Tickago
A Tickago is kind of a wall
That is very tall
That you need to bounce your ball
Mr Poe Mr Goe and Mr Mikazo
With the Tickago
Came back home in Mikamo
Elewyn
Elewyn is an animal with five legs
He juggles glasses standing on floating logs
With five ears he hears more than other animals
He hears noises in the water of chemicals
He has two eyes that are black
And he sees all colours lack
He goes to Elewyn School in Jud
And he likes to play in the mud
Elewyn eats mud, trees and grass
And drinks silly juice made of apples, air and brass
The Rich Duke of Jork
The rich old duke of Jork
Who had ten thousand hen
He marched them up the farm
And he marched them back again
When they were there they were there
When they were here they were here
But when they were only midway there
They were neither here nor there
Elephant and Castle Cafe
I dreamt a café called Elephant and Castle
Run by Rosie the elephant in the hustle bustle
Of the little town named Elephant and Castle
All the elephants come to eat and drink
And Rosie cooks for them all pink
Grass sandwiches and mushroom toast in ink
At the back of the café there is a little circus
Where a clown does juggling and making silly faces
Elephants eat and drink and break in laughs and claps
The Butterfly Walk
Katie the butterfly wanted a book
So she had to go to Butterfly Walk
To choose and buy a book
She bought a book about Butterfly Walk
Where there was a lot of talk in the book
Then she went to Macdonald to see and check
She went to Butterfly Walk walking
From her house high up a tree choking
With black fumes of buses and cars raking
My Wish at Trafalgar Square
The lion statues in Trafalgar Square
Look like giraffes sitting high up there
As if they are day dreaming
The round wishing pond under the fountain
Where two little ducks swim in the sun
You could see through clear water the wishing coins
I threw a coin with my brother
And made a wish for a shower
Which followed my wish getting us wet
Katherine Jenkins was singing on the stage
While we ran from the shower’s wet page
And the pigeons flew everywhere making a fuss
Gemma and Bat
Gemma the cat
Has a friend called Bat
Who is a boy cat
And he likes to play with boxes
Gemma is pink
She needs to think
When she washes her underpants in the sink
And she likes playing in boxes with Bat
Bat is fully blue
He is looking for a clue
Of the missing glue
With Gemma at the zoo
They found the glue
Which the giraffe placed in the loo
“It’s you! It’s you!”
They said to the giraffe the thief
Little Miss Muffet
Little Miss Muffet sat of a rocket
Eating her sweets away
There came alien Gider
Who sat down beside her
And they made friends straight away
The Duck Ran Away Rhyme
One two three four five
Once I caught a duck alive
Six seven eight nine ten
Then I caught it all again
Why did you catch it again?
Because it ran away in the rain
Why did it run away?
Because it liked the rainy day
Angelina Lives Underground
Angelina Ballerina is a little mouse
She lives underground in a pink house
She eats her breakfast on a treetop
And she comes down in a ballerina hop
Alex is Angelina’s friend
They play with a box on hand
They eat their lunch in a basket
And they eat chicken buns and chocolate
They eat their supper in the pink house
That is underground in a village of mouse
And they eat a lot of mascarpone cheese
And drink a lot of honey juice from the bees
Chay the Clown
Chay is a Clown
With a big red nose
He lives in a house in a town
And he wears in his neck a hose
His shoes are brown
And socks are yellow and pink
He wears a red crown
Has dinosaurs juice to drink
He juggles lot of balls
And he talks to the air
He cannot help but falls
Three times over at the fare
Raaneem
She is one
And bigger than a bun
She is Raaneem
My little sister who is not dim
She plays with me
And keeps falling on her knee
She stands up on her tum
And then bumps on her bum
Auloka is her other name
We play a perfect game
She is no bumble bee
But we call her Bumboogie
Goe the Ghost
Goe the ghost shut the door
And he spat on the floor
At night in Gemma’s house
He went to the living room to browse
He found a Scooby Doo plastic Snake
And went to the kitchen to bake a cake
Then he went upstairs
To play on the computers
He sat and clicked the mouse
And played a game of Head and Louse
He saw a mouse and screamed out of his core
Everyone woke up and opened the door
Invisible Goe looked for the mouse on the floor
Back to sleep all went shutting the door
Leary the Snail
Leary the Snail lives in the park
He barks at the grass in the dark
He hides under the big red slide
As he is scared being without a guide
Leary the Snail is ever so sad
He has been since he lost his mum and dad
“Why? Leary, don’t cry.”
Said the Fairy who lived nearby
And with the waving of the wand
Leary’s Mum and Dad was found
“We missed you.” They said
And Leary went straight to bed
Raaneem
Raaneem is my baby sister
She is sweeter than honey
And softer than butter
And I love her lotsomuch
She loves me very much
She can’t talk because she is little
But she can smile like me
She makes sounds and I laugh
When she laughs at me
She says: aagh, which makes me laugh
And I squeeze her and she laughs more
I love playing with her a lot
Raaneem is beautiful
She lives in my heart
And I am her big sister
And I look after her
And tickle her to make her laugh
Angelina’s Home
One day there was a Fairy. Her name was Angelina. She was flying over the trees.
She did not see where she was going. She could not see because she was
invisible.
Angelina got into the wood. She still could not see anything. She wanted to see. She turned around and she was visible and could now see. She was very happy.
She was flying in the wood to
go to her school. Her school was a fairy school and there were so many fairy
children.
Angelina went to school. She wrote her name by herself. She was proud because
she could write her name.
She then she went upstairs and read a book. It said Teddy Bear Hide! It was a scary story. Angelina did not like it. She then got another book, called, A Good Book. It’s a fairy tale. Angelina liked the story.
She put her coat on and went outside and she played on the slide. The slide was very slippery. It was fun.
Angelina got up on the climbing frame. She had lots friends. She played with them.
Angelina had no home. So she had to stay at the school with her friends. Her friends did not have any home either. They were waiting for their new homes.
Angelina wanted to go to her own home if she had one. She thought about her own home and she really really wanted to go home, but the home was not there!
One day Angelina decided to build a home of her own and she was excited about it. She built a lot of homes for her and for her friends, the other fairy children of the school.
Their new homes were by the river. Every one liked their new homes.
All her friends said thank you to Angelina and she was very happy.
