  1. The boy and the bull

    In a big field,
    Flowers stand proud,
    Birds in trees,
    Singing loud.

    A boy and a girl,
    Running free,
    Having a race,
    Happy as can be.

    The girl sees a bull,
    The boy doesn't believe,
    The boy shouts run,
    The message is received.

    The boy's upset,
    He says sorry,
    The girl just says,
    You should listen to me.

    The crying girl,
    Is really sad,
    She got right up,
    And ran to her dad.

    Now this story,
    Has been said,
    The unfortunate boy,
    Is now dead.

  2. Never Ever Tell Lies!!

    It was as dark as night,
    The Stars were shining so bright,
    The sun was sleeping,
    In the distance the cars were beeping.

    A young girl called Mary,
    She looks just like a beautiful fairy,
    She is lovely and kind,
    Such a beautiful mind.

    The dark lonely street,
    Mice looking for a treat,
    The window of the car rolled down,
    The man at the wheel had a great frown.

    “Quick! A dog has been hit!",
    A man jumped out looking so fit,
    A man ran round looking for a dog,
    To his amazement he found a log.

    She told a lie,
    As finishing her pie,
    The man was mad,
    While she was so glad.

  3. The crazy match

    The pitch is muddy,
    The fans are happy,
    But it was odd because it was sunny,
    And the green grass is lovely.

    Joe hart in goal,
    That's his soal,
    Everybody cheering yo yo yo,
    He's my bro.

    Once upon a time,
    There was a match at Kai's,
    The maneger was kind,
    Because he let Rooney shine.

    Everybody cheering,
    And are singing,
    Calling the king,
    The bling.

    The maneger is shouting,
    The flags are waving,
    Some players are fouling,
    And the ref is talking.

  4. Teresa heaphy:The bragger of all braggers

    A brilliant house,
    So different in looks,
    So grand,so tall,
    It looks like a mall.

    There lives a girl,
    A snotty one,
    So spoilt,so beautiful,
    Always untruthful but musical.

    Her name is,
    An unspeakable name,
    Teresa Heaphy,
    Isn't at all beafy.

    She went out one sunny day,
    And saw Amy,
    "That's a vile vest,
    Mine's the best."

    She went out one gloomy night,
    And saw Taya,
    "That's a dreadful dress,
    It looks such a mess."

    She went home that night,
    Said hello to her parents,
    Headed to her room,
    Then .....BOOM!

    She was blown back,
    She got up and looked around,
    Suddenly,she felt a grab,
    She was pulled away like a crab.

    "Where is she?where is she?",
    Asked Taya and Amy,
    Then they saw a girl all alone,
    Then she let out a big moan.

    "Teresa?You look awful,
    Now you know how we felt,"laughed the girls,
    Teresa cried,
    She lost all her pride,

  5. Don't eat loom bands!!
    The room was nice and bright,
    Although it was the night,
    The girls were screaming with delight,
    The package was here sealed up nice and tight.

    But it was time to go to bed,
    Julie and Rihanna were both red,
    While everybody were sleeping in bed,
    They were up screaming there he'd,

    The next day Rihanna woke up in distress,
    Waiting to wear her beautiful dress,
    Julie said "I have something to confess!"
    Look at my tummy why don't you have a guess?

    Rihanna noticed the loom bands had gone,
    Have you eaten my loom bands you moron,
    Can I still eat them? No don't carry on,
    Your tummy looks like a hexagon!

    Here's a lesson to you readers out there,
    Don't eat loom bands even though they're,
    Colourful and look amazing in your hear,
    Don't eat them or your tummy will tear!!

  6. Lies, lies so many lies!

    In a forest so dark, so bunt,
    Lived some horrible creatures,
    But across the lake,
    Was a meadow looking so fake,
    That no child would want to leave there.

    A brave young girl so stunning and kind,
    Very bashful indeed,
    She's called Mary ,
    Such a trusting fairy,
    Oh so gullible indeed.

    But in that forest so gloomy and black,
    Were the most evil things,
    There were to witches,
    Who lived in ditches,
    Ug! How unpleasant is that.

    As the witches strolled up the lake,
    Cackling on and on,
    Then up popped the fairy,
    The witches yelled Mary!
    And surprised the fairy stopped and said hello.

    All of a sudden the witches lied,
    Saying there's gold,
    Buried under the lake
    But in fact this was all fake,
    Of course Mary believed them!

    Mary walked for miles and miles,
    Still not knowing the truth,
    On and on and on and on,
    Until she found,it was a con,
    When Mary got back the witches had gone!

  7. The argument

    The street was dirty,
    There was rubbish all over the floor,
    Even under the door,
    "Like it has no sole,"said girty.

    Jimmy and Sam had a van,
    But they never drove it,
    Bob had a red kit,
    Also braught it with a sprite can.

    "My van is the best,"said Sam,
    Jimmy said "my vans a strong tin",
    Sam bushed Jimmy in a bin,
    So Jimmy kicked Sam on a hard can.

    Bob and Girty com on in a hurry,
    "Hey Jimmy sam broke your van"said Bob,
    "Hey as said your a corn on a cob"said one in a sob,
    So Sam got curry.

  8. A poem about a boy

    Once in the streets gos a boy feeling,
    And doesn't know where to go,
    He sees a ball and it gets popped,
    He ran back home and says I got
    lost.

    Once a boy lived in a flat name called Jack,
    Had no food and siting on the Setefano and whoching tv,
    And fand the food under the fridge.

  9. Jess's Nails:

    In a house,
    Just an ordinary day,
    A family gathering,
    Everyone at play.

    A girl called Rosie,
    Shuffling her feet,
    Laughing with Jess,
    Dancing to the beat.

    Jess bites her nails ,
    It's a nasty habit,
    Her best friend's Rosie,
    And Rosie's got a rabbit.

    Rosie called her rabbit Jess ,
    After her best friend,
    But it's nails are so long,
    That they bend.

    Now the message is,
    Don't bite your nails,
    Because you could develop,
    A velvet-soft tails.

  10. The rocket

    The sun was shining bright,
    The rocket was taking of at night,
    Anyway you can't see it in sight,
    I hope it looks like my kite.

    A man called Jim he works in a gym,
    And he has a twin,
    And he is very thin,
    But the gym didn't make sence to him.

    Jim had a little think,
    Jim said to his twin,
    Why don't we build a rocket,
    Then he put his plan in his rocket.

    Jim realised he had a space ship,
    But he didn't have a space kit,
    But Jim didn't have any money,
    Jim could sell his bunny.

  11. The smart boy

    One day in a life saving horrifying lab,
    A mad boy live in it,
    The with a hokey playing bat with a hat,
    The giant machines and toxi.

    The smart boy named Wonka the grand,
    With a friend named John with a ring,
    Nobody new why, he hated the ring with a thing,
    When the robot was born with super powers.

  12. Dare Devil

    Down in the summer street you'll meet a house and in a bright room behind a fake witch broom there's a bright red door. And on the floor there's a card you'll adore with a boy wearing black and red called and Demmle is a deadly dare devil.And that card is a dare and you won't start to glare. Demmil said to John do me a solid and for both of us get rid of Sid.Sorry Sid and bang with a giant lid and that's what John did.Demmil won a bet and said to Cevin say your eleven to people who's age is seven.Demmil told them three to fall off a cliff and explained how there's a soft landing so off they driff and completely missed and hissed help with a chopped of wrist.The next really silent day in a house where Demmle lay the two boys were not seen and Demmil felt cruel and mean.

  13. His house was quiet and dark,
    The Only noise was the boys having a fight,
    Playing all through the afternoon,
    They stay awake until midnight,

    Him and joe were flying a kite, DON'T MESS WITH FIRE!!!
    They were playing in a tunnel,
    It was almost night,
    He found a funnel,

    Jim went to school,
    Had a dool,
    When he was in class,
    He daydreamed about a duel.

    He went to thre playground,
    Saw the boys,
    They were haveing a frown,
    And braking toys.

    He went up to them,
    He asked "What are you doing?",
    That was all he said,
    But they were sarcastic and said "we're pooing!"

    He said "can I join?",
    They shouted " only if you set the loacal petrol station on fire!",
    But he gasped,
    He shouted "but wouldn't that blow up the tires?"

    So he did what he was told,
    Got a match and set a car alight,
    The other boys laughed and ran,
    But with a flash of light!

    Poor little Jimmy
    He had died!!!!
