The beautiful yellow substance,
That melts in your mouth
If you hate it, you’re crazy
And you should head south
But let’s get back to the chase
To a beautiful place
It’s not 1,000 miles away
Not in the U.S.A
It’s just in your fridge
You won’t slip off a bridge
It may contain mice,
But definitely not lice
Just have to take a big bite
The room will fill with light
That beautiful yellow substance
That substance that is cheese!
I was in a public toilet
when I was attacked by a hair-dryer.
PHOOOOOO!
I had walked past it calmly.
I hadn’t said anything provocative.
I didn’t stare at it.
I didn’t disrespect it
I didn’t say, ‘Look at you stuck on the wall
Nowhere to go, nothing to do
Who are you? Johnny No-mates?’
I did none of these things.
But still it leapt at me
Pumping out hot air:
PHOOOOOO!
Roaring in my face:
PHOOOOOO!
Roughing up my hair:
PHOOOOOO!
New year’s resolutions
This year I want to go to the moon, make a spoon, tidy my room, stay silent in the classroom, or is that too many jobs of gloom?
This year I want to win the lottery,
make amazing pottery,
don’t bite my nails,
or step on too many snails,
get to the top of the class,
don’t break any glass.
As you can see
that’s rather a lot for me!
Is it too much?
Just stay in touch?
What will be will be!
On new years day
each year they say
This time I’ll change
this time I’ll realise
My life into another
I’ll…
stop drinking
swimming without
sinking.
Be a better mum or
dad and make my
children very glad
find a boyfriend
start to lend.
Use less electricity
find a job in the city.

Silly Billy
On the table awaiting milk to be spilled
But in Silly Billy energy was filled
wearing his pjamas made of silk
Silly Billy spilled the milk.
Silly Billy cleaned the mess
But inside him he knew he had to confess
Silly Billy’s parents playing chess
didn’t talk, didn’t care less.
Silly Billy filled with relief
realized that an ant was on leaf
It started crawling up his teeth!
Silly Billy’s mum came down and start to cook up the beef.
I think turkeys are nice
I like to chop ‘em up,
And serve them with rice
But some people say it’s not very kind
As some turkeys may be blind
So they won’t see me attacking from behind
Anyway,
Who cares about turkeys?
‘Me!’ ‘Me!’ ‘Me!’
Okay…
So this year,
My new year’s resolution is to be kind
ESPECIALLY to turkeys
And maybe when I’m thirty,
I’ll have friends who are turkeys
You never know…
Until I’m thirty!!!
Doughnuts.
You can’t eat them without licking your lips.
The soft sugary bread…
My mum never lets me have them!
I say, “Please mum it’s Saturday.”
“No you have them on Sunday!”
Guess what she said on the next day?
“Mum it’s Sunday. Can I have a doughnut?”
“No…do you wanna be hyper tomorrow?”
“No.” I say looking at her angrily.
But that night I knew the doughnuts were there,
I knew they were delicious,
I was licking my lips.
So Ii tiptoed downstairs
And bit into this glorious snack.
In two seconds it was gone.
I sneaked back upstairs
Wanting another.
Doughnuts!!!!!
Happy New Year, Happy New Year!
Let’s all make it a wonderful year!
If we work hard it’s going to be great
Walking to school and not being late.
Hope all the children are going to be nice.
If they are not they’ll pay the price
With Miss Stevenson and Miss Frood
The last thing you want is them in a mood!
So everyone have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I like annoying orange
he really likes my door hinge
The person that knows him is Victor
who is a good predictor!
This is really random!
Yeah!! I’m a good predictor AND dictator. As for annoying orange, he’s epic just like your poem! 🙂 😀
Thanks! 🙂
The yummiest thing in the universe
The beautiful yellow substance,
That melts in your mouth
If you hate it, you’re crazy
And you should head south
But let’s get back to the chase
To a beautiful place
It’s not 1,000 miles away

But definitely not lice
Just have to take a big bite
The room will fill with light
That beautiful yellow substance
That substance that is cheese!
I love cheese! I bet you do too! 🙂
Thanks !

That was really good.

This is such a cool poem I really like it A LOT! I’m not kidding.
That’s really good. I like the constant rhyme and the images are so funny!
Luckily for you, we ARE doing pottery.
By the way my poem is not about me!!

Random, in a good way! You’re really creative!!
Note for everyone: the saying ‘silly billy’ originates from this poem. True fact.

You must really like doughnuts!
I do 🍰🎂🍪🍫🍦
Who doesn’t?
This reminds me about Chocolate Cake in Michael Rosen!
Imagine a poem so good about doughnuts!!
Mine isn’t a new year’s resolutions theme, it is like a Micheal Rosen poem. About something delicous.
YUM!
Kind of is, Flo. 🙂

Right;
Firstly, that is the best poem ever made.

New Year’s Resolutions
This year I thought
I could be friendly
Be trendy
This year I thought
About family and friends
This year I lit a
Floating lantern
That flew away in the mist;
It was cold and horrible weather
I wished for some sunshine
Some light and joy
I wished for friendship
The best ever toy
I wished for peace
Not for only me and you
For every one
The children and the adults too.
by Maya.
I love this… Especially the repetition of “wished”. Well done Maya!
This is a beautiful poem Maya.
